Appalachian Log Homes invites you to discover the natural beauty of our affordable, quality-built log homes. Since 1980, Appalachian Log Homes has been designing and constructing authentic, hand-crafted log homes built to endure for generations.
Because of our long history our company’s authorized log home erection crews are among the best in the industry. Whether you are interested in a vacation cabin, or a custom luxury log dream home, the design possibilities offered by Appalachian Log Homes are limitless.
Each Appalachian Log Home is built to be energy efficient and backed with a 10 year warranty against structural defects. Our quality begins with our timbers, milled from heartwood of mature Hemlock, Spruce and Fir trees. These timbers are inspected and stress graded for structural integrity by Timber Products Inspection Inc. Our logs are squared and hand-hewn to give the appearance of our traditional Appalachian dovetail style. Appalachian Log Homes are designed to allow for log movement and/or settling.
We also offer the Paneloc® system which is designed for fast and effective onsite installation of dormers, additions and gable-end walls. This system is super energy efficient and is an excellent alternative to typical stud walls with fiberglass insulation.
Our log siding has full-width dovetail corners. The 6-by-12-inch style extended dovetail corner is available with 1-by-12-inch or 2-by-12-inch siding. Our standard finishes are hand-hewn, machine-hewn, and planed-smooth.
We are also proud to introduce our Rustic log system. Capitalizing on the popularity of our famous Traditional log style, we are offering new 2-inch and 4-inch chink widths. By using a special handcrafting tool we’ve added a hand-scribed bevel to each long side of the logs. The result is a truly authentic, early American look.
