A Four-Generation Tradition of Craftsmanship

When Beaver Mountain Log Homes was created in 1982, we built our business on a foundation of strong family values, a passion for custom-built homes, and a focus on creating the highest quality custom-crafted log homes and timber homes. Our goal is not to mass-produce the most homes, it is to design and build the best personalized, one-of-a-kind homes.

LET OUR EXPERTISE WORK FOR YOU

We promise to bring everything we’ve got to the table – expert guidance, exceptional client services, and outstanding craftsmanship – to help make your experience easier, more enjoyable, and infinitely more memorable. In every situation, we consistently strive to always do the right thing, a practice that results in quality relationships that stand the test of time. In fact, our business was built on the Golden Rule. We treat others the way we would want to be treated. It’s a simple concept, but it seems pretty rare these days.

Creating the Exquisite Level of Luxury our Clients Demand Takes Real Teamwork

We do not make people feel pressured to do business with us. We promise to listen more than we talk, and not waste anyone’s time.
