We provide the kit. You provide the elbow grease.

A complete Beaver log home kit ships with everything that makes the structure: quality kiln-dried logs cut to your plan, our inter-locking system that ties every course tight, and the documentation to put it together. Stand-alone or bind to existing construction.

Beaver Log Homes offers a selection of standard plans and kits to match practically any site. If you'd rather not lift logs, we can recommend Beaver-approved contractors in your area to do the heavy lifting (and fine finish work). Either way, by ribbon-cutting time, you'll own a stunning, low-maintenance, energy-efficient log home that stands the test of time — just as its ancestors have for centuries.

Michigan-grown timber, treated the right way.

Every log built into your new home is responsibly sourced from family-owned businesses right here in northern Michigan. We've built with the highest quality pine for three generations.

Beaver Log Homes provides kiln-dried logs that have increased stability and are less susceptible to shrinkage. Before kiln-drying, each log is hand-peeled for faster drying. The logs are then machined with double tongues and grooves to help them self-align and interlock during assembly. This ensures that your walls are tightly sealed and stable, ultimately increasing the durability and long-term value of your home.

You can choose from a wide range of log sizes based on your preference. We can also source logs in other species of trees as required.

Diameter & Species Options

  • Four standard diameters: 8", 10", 12", and 14"
  • Lengths: up to 12½ feet standard; custom lengths available
  • Species: primarily Michigan pine; other species available based on availability
  • Half-log and veneer options for bind-on applications
  • Factory direct pricing available for budget-driven projects

All the classic profiles, milled to perfection.

The shape of your log is the shape of your home. We offer four classic profiles — each with its own visual logic — and we'll help you decide which one fits the land, the style, and the family.

Profile No. 01

Round Log

The classic. Full round inside and out. Maximum visual impact, maximum log character — the silhouette of every cabin you've ever pictured.

Profile No. 02

D-Log

Round face outside, flat inside. Drywall-friendly interior walls without losing the log-cabin exterior. A favorite for combined cabin/modern interiors.

Profile No. 03

Timber

Square-milled on all four sides. Clean, architectural, and unmistakably timber-frame in spirit. Works beautifully with metal accents and modern roofs.

Profile No. 04

Swedish Cope

Traditional Scandinavian profile with a hand-shaped concave underside that nests perfectly onto the log below. Tightest joinery of any profile.

We also offer half logs and veneer siding options. You can select a half log with or without full round corners to fit a new or existing structure. Factory direct pricing is available for budget-driven projects.

Bring the outside in. With wood that has character.

Our locally sourced material provides unique characteristics that flow through the grain of every slat. We provide interior kits made of Michigan cedar or pine, in a flat profile or round log profile to match the outside of your home.

Jointing Options

  • Shiplap — clean horizontal lines, classic ceiling and wall application
  • Tongue & groove — self-aligning, snug seams, our most-ordered finish
  • Overlap — shadow-line aesthetic, slightly rustic profile
  • Straight cut — minimal, modern, ideal for accent walls
  • Round log interior — when you want the exterior look inside, too

The corners are where the building tells you who built it.

The style of cut used to finish the corners of your log home is a defining feature of the exterior. We always leave room for design creativity with a variety of available corner options.

Available Corner Styles

  • Saddle Corner — the iconic log-cabin corner, logs saddled to nest with the perpendicular wall
  • Butt & Pass — alternating ends with one log running long past the other; clean and orderly
  • Structure Binding Corners — for bind-on applications to existing framing
  • Corner Posts — vertical posts with logs running into them; common in additions and dormers

Wood grain under your feet. Quality woods in your hands.

Beaver Log Homes creates custom-built stair systems that will truly take your new or remodeled home up a level. Built to match the species and finish of your interior package — or as a standalone upgrade to an existing home.
