Southland Log Homes
As mentioned earlier, we choose Southland Log Homes as our log home kit supplier. I have to say everything about working with them has been a breeze. In fact I originally set up an account on their website becuase it was the only way to access their design system (which is free). Being early in the process, I didn’t know what I was doing, but I’m a computer guy, so I played around with webapps.
A few days after I signed up, I got a phone call from a sales rep. Normally, I’d brush this off, but Southland offered a ton of useful information on their website, a ton of floorplans, and a ton of insight into what I was looking for. I spoke with their sales rep, I spoke with my wife, we went through things. After what felt like forever, but was probably about a week, we we decided that Southland was the place for us.
Floorplans
They had several floorplans that we liked, and with back and forth with the sales rep we got semi-accurate quotes for materials from them. We spent hours every night looking over floorplans, thinking about how we would use the hosue, live in it, and grow our family. When we started looking we were a family of 3, but we knew we were going to expand. Covid provided us with the perfect oppertunity to plan a work from home capable lifestyle.
