Our Projects: Log Home

The 10-inch round, red cedar log home in being built by the owner in the Pacific Northwest, This 24’ x 32’ chalet style home features a 8’ gable end porch.

From the owner:

For years I have wanted to have a log home almost as much as I wanted mountain property well off the beaten track. The quandary came when I found the property I wanted, but its remoteness and steepness, which meant no power, water or even reasonable road access made me wonder if a cabin was possible. I was concerned that making the cabin work out was going to be difficult if not impossible, but discussed the options with Hank Schaffeld at the Tri-City Sportsman show. Hank told me that nothing was impossible if I had the commitment.

I will never forget the process and end result as long as I live as this project was a big undertaking, and consider Hank a friend and one of the hardest working guys around. I would finish by saying I have the cabin I wanted, and Hank was true to his word and work and continues to help. He is welcome at my place anytime.
