The Mesmerizing Charm of Log Cabins & Homes

When we think of log cabins, our first thought is likely of some of our most memorable vacations. But the dream my husband and I have always had is to permanently live in a log cabin or home. Log homes seem to emit warmth, symbolize strength, provide safety, and associate with serenity... and yes, our best memories have been made while vacationing in the woods in a cozy log cabin with a fireplace and a porch swing. That's the kind of environment we thrive in. The day we move into our new log cabin will be the day we have pined over for several years; the day we will not only say that we are home, but feel like it too.

If you fancy rugged, simple decor; if you like wood, iron, clay, and aged relics; or if you want to add charm and warmth to your existing home, then take a look at these rustic designs, decor, and creative uses for log construction.

    We built our log home from a kit in 1997. It is on five acres of secluded, wooded land and it is a piece of heaven on earth. Very nice lens.

    Beautiful log cabins! Years ago, our new neighbors across the street built a log cabin from a kit. It was hard work, but the cabin was beautiful! Nice lens! Lensrolling with my Romantic Cottage Bedroom Ideas.

    I read in your about me lense how you loved log cabins and hoped to live in one some day. I hope that you do too. If you ever happen to be in this part of the country The Great Smokey in Gatlinburg Tennessee have some really awsome cabin vacation rentals all nestled back in the woods. I spent my honeymoon there, very romantic place! 5 stars!
