Wisconsin Log Home Builders

Road limits are off and spring is in full stride in the upper midwest. With the season brings the start for some and researching for others for Wisconsin log homes. In both Wisconsin and Minnesota there are several log home manufactures to choose from. Some offer only half log, others offer only full log but most offer both. Beyond type of construction you will also have choices of log style and size. Some log home companies offer round, pencil like logs with very little character to them. That is fine for some but most like a peeled, rustic looking log. To break it down further than that, some machine peel their logs and others have a random rustic peel. I'm not a fan of machine peeled logs due to the fact every few feet the pattern usually repeats itself. As we all know, nature doesn't usually repeat itself so neither should your logs. Stevens Point Log Homes offers true half log for your log home. They only control the height of the log and the face of it has a random and rustic peel to it. Hands down, they have one of the best looking logs on the market. They also have a network of Wisconsin log home builders to help you through the planning and construction stages of your project. I've said it before but there is no standard in the log home industry for materials or packages so it is up to you to stay researched and sort things out on your own.
