Log Cabin Plans

A log cabin is made from logs that have not been milled into conventional lumber, and built by placing the logs horizontally and interlocked on the ends with notches. They are very similar to Log House Plans, while the term “cabin” indicates a smaller, more rustic, log house such as a hunting cabin in the woods. Log Homes appeared in North America in the early 1700s and were quickly adopted by early colonists and Native Americans. In the 1920s, the first milled log houses appeared on the market, making this home style extremely popular.
