True North Log Homes customers Keith and Ann Bares in Minnesota discuss the selection, planning, building and furnishing of their second log home, which acts as a waterfront vacation getaway for them and their extended family in the February 2013 Edition of Log Home Living. As the story goes, the Bares fell in love with a True North log home model as they were driving one day. They worked with
Rakow Construction to choose a
log home design, which would best suit their needs. They say as they dug deeper they were particularly impressed by True North's patented
log wall joinery system and zero air infiltration guarantee as theirs would be a year-round vacation destination. Rakow proceeded to build a spectacular 1,924 square foot home with a large, walk-out lower level, wrap-around cedar deck and even a three-car garage (a must for Minnesota winters).
Inside, the Bares created a fantastic, traditional log cabin retreat they and their family will no doubt enjoy for years to come.
