How Cedar Creek Cabin Co. Log Cabin Kits are Made

They start with yellow or white pine logs at least 12” thick.

Yellow and/or white pine is our species of choice due to its strength, durability, and grain texture. Its fast drying properties keep shrinkage, settling, and checking to a bare minimum.

Logs are then sawn to a thickness of 6″ while keeping the heart (or core) boxed in (centered) to maintain strength.

Remaining bark is then peeled to allow the chinking to adhere well when applied.

Cedar Creek Cabin Co. cabin is assembled as it is notched up.

Next, the log shell or walls are notched up. They can produce any notch. The saddle notch has round logs and minimal chinking. Full scribe has round logs that require no chinking. Let them know if you prefer other notching methods.

Cedar Creek Cabin Co. can match other notches, but recommend using a Blind-V notch.

Cedar Creek Cabin Co. Blind-V notch securely locks each log in all four directions. Once the log is set into place, it cannot shift out of position.

The chinked style log cabin shells start for as little as $24.00 per sq. ft. of ground floor space. This includes door and window openings cut in and trimmed per customers specs, a cross beam, and a loft beam. A small single story cabin will accommodate a sleeping loft with the appropriate pitched roof.

For a full room upstairs you would need a story and a half or full two story. Pricing for a story and a half would be figured at one and a half times the sq. footage of the ground floor and a two story would be twice the sq. footage of the ground floor space.

Wood flooring in a natural yellow color coordinates beautifully with the yellow pine log walls. I like a painted kitchen with all of the rest in natural wood. I especially like the beadboard fronts on these cabinet doors.
