Log House
A log house (or log home) is structurally identical to a log cabin (a house
typically made from logs that have not been milled into conventional lumber).
The term "log cabin" is not preferred by most contemporary builders, as it
generally refers to a smaller, more rustic log house such as a hunting cabin in
the woods, or a summer cottage.
Log houses are especially popular in Sweden, Finland, Norway and Russia, where straight and tall coniferous trees, such as pine and spruce, are readily available. They are virtually unknown in Central Europe, where timber framing is favoured instead.
