Canadian Log Cabins

Building your own log cabin as a second home gives you the option to erect your log cabin wherever you want (subject to planning permission).

Do you want a second home but you think you can’t afford it? Think again, because a log cabin could be the answer.

Small log cabins have really come a long way since the frontier days of early America.

Unlike garden sheds, summerhouses and gazebos are almost always made from wood.

Modular log cabins are more economical than the traditional way of constructing log cabins. While the modular log cabin kit is being manufactured, the site location is being prepared just in time for the arrival of the kit.

Currently, there are already more that 600 producers of log cabins/houses in the whole industry.

One of the enduring symbols of American history is the log cabin.

To protect the log cabin from moisture of the soil, they are built with huge rocks as a base. These rocks serve as a strong foundation for the log cabins.

Log structures in the US were first constructed by Swedes in what is now south-east Pennsylvania.

In the European countries, modern type log cabins are usually built near gardens and are used for home office and summer houses.
