| Michael McLay recently purchased a True North Log Home. |
While on business in Colorado, Michael McLay attended a log home trade show and was impressed with one exhibitor in particular. “I asked them if they ever built in Ontario, and I couldn’t believe my luck when it turned out that they were from Muskoka,” recalls Michael.
After researching log home builders, Michael and his wife Brenda eventually purchased a True North Log Home, the same exhibitor that impressed Michael months before. Michael and Brenda selected True North Log Homes based on the firm’s quality, reputation, service and style.

The McLays customized their home with the help of the True North staff, including a specifically engineered circular staircase. The personal service and technical support continued throughout the building process. The couple is thrilled with the unique king post system, exclusive to True North Log Homes, which provides a focal point that is both structurally and aesthetically pleasing. “Our home is a natural extension of the elements that drew us to this area: its water, rocks and tress,” explains Brenda.
No longer just a simple cabin or cottage, a log home can be as contemporary – or as rustic – as its owner desires. As Michael insists, “Log homes are not a thing of the past: they belong to the future!”
