HOUSE
#1
Owner: Bilben Family
Featured in Log Home Design Ideas, this home is designed
to provide great views of Leech Lake, Minnesota’s
third largest body of inland water, and the night sky
above. The house faces east on a 200’ x 800’ lot
that provides privacy and great morning sun. The elevation
of the house provides unobstructed lake views from
the kitchen, dining, living room and loft.

HOUSE
#2
Owner: Colonna Family
Sitting high atop Lion Mountain, this log home looks
into Glacier National Park and down onto Whitefish
Lake, Montana. Attention to detail, a Northwoods Log
Homes trademark, sets this house apart from the rest.
This home was erected by skilled local contractors
working eleven hundred miles away from the manufacturer.
It is a testament to both the product and to the process
that produced it. |

HOUSE
#3
Owner: Downs Family
Dark-stained, full round 7 ½-inch logs give
this log home a traditional look and feel. The house
and lot are both nicely accented with fieldstone, allowing
the home to blend into its surroundings. A walkout
basement nearly doubles the livable square footage
that overlooks the lake. Design incorporates many customer
generated ideas that makes the home fit their needs
perfectly. This home was featured in Log Homes Illustrated. |

HOUSE
#4
Owner: Harris Family
Built as a retirement home in waiting, this trim house
sits in a 6,400 acre wooded development in Galena,
Illinois. The home was assembled primarily by the owners,
who served as the project’s general contractor.
They started with a stock Northwoods Log Homes plan
which they modified by lengthening the home and adding
a 20’ dormer to the second story. The home features
heart-pine flooring salvaged from old mill buildings
on the East Coast. |

HOUSE
#5
Owner: Herschman Family
Designed to fit into a prairie setting of grasses,
ponds and marshlands in southern Minnesota, this home
features local fieldstones on the foundation and inside
on a fireplace which is open on two sides to serve
two rooms. An inviting open porch and a cozy four-season
porch make it a home that allows you to watch in comfort
as one season flows into the next. The custom floor
plan provides for open spaces and display areas. |

HOUSE
#6
Owner: Kvidt Family
This cottage style home was featured in Country’s
Best Log Homes Magazine. Its graceful lines and steep
peaks on the roof incorporate a blend of wood and rock
that creates a warm, unique home. Inspired from a house
in a 1984 log home magazine, the home reflects the
careful attention of architectural design and home
owner ideas, including a 16’ vaulted ceiling
in the second story master bedroom. |

HOUSE
#7
Owner: Peterson Family
Inspired by a good bottle of wine, this year 'round
lake home emerged from a napkin sketch to become a
striking, three-level home with six bedrooms, five
bathrooms, and open decks on three sides. Throw in
a fire pit that sizzles with Southwestern flair and
you have a home that says welcome friends, come on
in. |

HOUSE
#8
Owner: Sharbo Family
When planning their retirement home, Dave and Karen
made sure the floorplan and design would accommodate
their needs as they got older... |

HOUSE
#9
Owner: Barker Family
Imagine buying a piece of property that your grandfather
had sold to someone else before you were born. That
is exactly what Brad and Kathy Barker were able to
accomplish, thanks to their persistence. |
