Michigan Log Homes is a company owned and operated by the builder. Charlie Wagner and his craftsmen work to construct some of the most unique log homes.  

Our mill is located in Northern Michigan where the richest stands of Northern White Cedar grow. For centuries builders have been choosing cedar because of its strength, durability, and beauty. It has the highest insulating value of all woods, as well as being resistant to insects and decay. Cedar is the finest building material nature has to offer!

Our craftsmen cut the trees and hand peel the logs. The logs are milled flat to allow the log sealant and lag screw system to laminate the logs together. The corners are left in their natural round state.  

During construction, each log is planed for water edges, and the corners are all hand scribed by our craftsmen. We are not a machine log home company!

Charlie, an art major, extends his art talent through logs. Whether it be his unique handcrafted cross corners, handcrafted staircases, custom built fireplaces, or the way he utilized arched logs, to Charlie, each home is one of a kind!

At Michigan Log Homes, Inc., we have a unique philosophy. We don’t just deliver a pile of logs – we build you dream log home. While most companies avoid the construction of their own product, we take a great deal of pride in our quality and craftsmanship.

Michigan Log Homes can construct your home as a close-in, or we can act as a general contractor and build your home from the foundations up. We can custom finish the interior for you, or you can do the finish work. Either way, we strive to make sure your log home is of the finest quality.
