Log Home Floor Plans

If you’ve always envisioned yourself in a rustic log home or cabin, it may be time to consider a floorplan and design. In today’s day and age, log home floorplans have been updated to include modern amenities. Most plans also include a feature of floor to ceiling windows to enhance any views you may have.
 
Most of the plans feature a wall of windows in the living room or great room, to make this room as naturally bright as possible. Many of these great rooms also feature vaulted ceilings for more of a mountain lodge feel. Some plans also carry the vaulted ceilings through to upstairs bedrooms or lofts. Skylights are often a welcomed customization to the great rooms or upstairs bedrooms, with a vaulted ceiling.  
 
Most cabins and log homes are designed as vacation homes, but most are extremely suitable for year round living. Logs are known for great insulating qualities, so a log home or cabin really is suited for all season. Many designs are also built to incorporate plenty of decks and balconies for the house and a potential view. Lots of decks for log homes are designed in a V-shape to echo the shape of the front of the house, that features the wall of windows. Depending on the size of plan you choose, some owner’s suites fall on the first or second floors. Some suites on the first floor also feature a door out onto a deck, or a balcony if it’s a second floor master suite.
