Testimonials

I love that EcoLog uses logs from a forest recognized for its sustainability practices. Choosing EcoLog also offered the design flexibility of a custom home but at an affordable price. The cottage is a beautiful, rustic looking getaway with exposed logs, beams and unique private balconies. Friends and family are following the progress and are lined up to visit!

EcoLog Log Home

Welcome to EcoLog: a new style of log homes. EcoLog buildings are solid wood log homes, which differ from other log homes or timber fram structures in several ways:

  • The massive walls are constructed from 8" square timbers, not round logs
  • Square timbers are much easier to produce and work with... this makes EcoLog homes very affordable
  • The "EcoLog Look" is derived from the combination of the alternating 2" insulation and 8" timbers, giving EcoLog buildings a very unique and attractive, natural look
  • Most of the timbers for EcoLog homes is grown and harvested from certified sustainable forests
  • EcoLog homes are built from Eastern or Western Hemlock, a tree, which produces superior timbers, commonly used in traditional barn construction, tried and proven for centuries.

EcoLog homes combine traditional construction and design techniques with modern applications, producing a long lived home for decades and centuries.

The secret of EcoLog buildings lies in their simplicity: The design concepts are based on old pioneer construction techniques. The square timbers allow efficient production and construction and avoid many challenges faced by building with round logs. The resulting product is a traditional home, unpretentious and rustic, yet full of charm and appeal.
