Artisan Log Homes is a family owned business based in MN that employs Log Home and Log Cabin building Craftsmen that are uniquely skilled in the fully scribed, chinked and butt-and-pass methods of log building construction. Our Log Homes are built to fit the most discriminating tastes while seamlessly blending into the local landscape and elegantly passing the test of time. We’ve built our business and reputation on well-earned artisan skills that highlight attention to detail and include superior customer relationships / service.
Massive logs are finished (usually hand peeled) to a smoothly-rustic surface that is used to build unusually beautiful and energy efficient log homes. Our corners on fully scribed and chinked homes are interlocked using a unique scarfed saddle-notching system that provides an appealing look and an extremely tight fit. Specially designed gaskets are used where wood-meets-wood to provide an extremely energy-efficient home that is able to use the “green” principle of thermal mass to help heat your home in the winter and cool your home in the summer.
Artisan Log Homes serves the residential, commercial and log accent needs of its customers with top quality hand-peeled timber that has been harvested with thoughts and considerations towards future generations. We promote a construction process where handcrafted structural and accent log elements preserve the rustic beauty of the old world artisans while exceeding modern construction demands. We are committed to providing our customers with top quality log products and services at competitive prices that help promote long-lived structures and nurture long-lived personal relationships with our customer-friends.
