Log Home Exterior Pictures

Here’s a few exterior pictures of log cabins and homes that Honest Abe Log Homes has built over the past 40 years. After you’ve browsed these pictures, make sure to see the other photo galleries that are available on our main Log Home Pictures page.

The siting of the home was very important to the homeowners. Architect Mike Magee says, “Unobscured views of the lake from all of the major areas in the main house were essential to my in-laws.” Magee also aligned the pool pavilion with the lake shore to maximize its views, while not impeding the views from the house.

Perched above the pool area, and just below the main level of the home, the rear deck is furnished with teak chairs, benches, and tables for outdoor entertaining. Cool lime green cushions pop against the warm honey wood of the decking.

Built into the side of a hill, the
home has a walkout basement. “Eventually,
we want to finish it with some
extra bedrooms or an apartment,” says
Christine. The aluminum roof came from
a local supplier. “I went with the metal
roof because it was the most long-lasting,
and it looked good with the trees,”
she says.

From the inside out. One thing homeowners Pete and Trish DeSocio knew they wanted from the start was a lot of outdoor space—and they got it. With no neighbors in view for most of the year, both family and guests can
spend their time enjoying more than 2,000 square feet of decks and patios whenever they like.
