Honest Abe Log Homes sells, designs, manufactures and builds custom, energy efficient log, timber frame, SIP (Structural Insulated Panels) and hybrid homes. Plans are drafted by their in-house design team and are customized to each homeowner’s needs and desires. Each log or timber frame homes is pre-cut, notched and numbered using modern, state-of-the-art manufacturing methods. Only kiln-dried Eastern White pine and Douglas Fir are used, ensuring durability and stability. Pre-cut packages are shipped throughout the United States and beyond.
Several log systems as well as timber frame system are available. Honest Abe offers 6×8 and 8×8 milled D-Logs with butt-and-pass corners.

A second round system is our 10” log with saddle notched logs and Swedish-coped corners. The Genesis log system is a “square” system available in 6×12 or 8×12 logs. It features dovetailed corners and options like exterior chinking or hand-hewing. Finally, the log system on which the company was built, the 6×10 Original Chinked, has dovetailed corners and chinking inside and out. Honest Abe offers more than just log walls. Their packages include doors and windows, subfloor, second-story beams with tongue-and-groove, various roof styles, porches and decks, interior trim, interior doors and interior tongue-and-groove.
