Log Cabins

A log cabin is a dwelling constructed of logs, especially a less finished or architecturally sophisticated structure. Log cabins have an ancient history in Europe, and in America are often associated with first generation home building by settlers. Barns, churches, and mercantile stores are also examples of log construction during colonial and pioneer days. Today the log cabin is making a comeback with restored barns and homes and new modern-day log construction, including lodges, hotels/motels, bed and breakfast establishments, cabins and cottages, and other unique businesses.
