  1. Choosing a Log Home as Your Second Home There's something almost romantic about log homes that makes them appealing even in this age of ultra-modern structures. Perhaps it's their rustic ambiance or the way they make one feel closer to nature. Maybe it's the rest and peace of mind that they offer to those who are looking to escape from the chaos of a busy, demanding life. If you ask log-home owners what made them choose this particular type of dwelling as their second home, you will be overwhelmed by all their positive answers—and you will wish that you had your own log home, too. One of the best places to build a log home if you’re interested in a vacation house is in Colorado. Owners of Colorado log cabins enjoy nature views that welcome them and keep them company throughout their time off. With the area's scenic mountain ranges, natural hot springs, pristine lakes, wildflower meadows, lakes, there is no such thing as a bad spot to build a log home. Constructing a log cabin that you can call as your second home is not an easy feat. You must invest money, time, and patience to turn your dream log home into a reality. The good news is that Colorado log home builders can help you achieve this. However, before they can build the log home of your dreams, you must help them in designing the perfect floorplan. Here are some factors to consider when choosing a log cabin floorplan. 1. Budget Building a house made of logs can cheaper than building a conventional home. Nevertheless, it will still cost you a generous amount of money. Don’t overspend or you might end up ‘house poor.’ Choose a design that you can afford. This is why it is advisable to find a builder that can offer floorplans according to your budget and taste. 2. Size and layout of property No matter how beautiful a floorplan is, if it doesn't match the specifications of your land, then it's not feasible. Ask an architect to customize a floorplan for your lot or ask your builder for recommendations. Listen to their input because they have more experience on these matters than you do. 3. Your lifestyle Which part of the log cabin will you likely use the most? Is it the porch or the kitchen? Do you want to have a library? Ask yourself such questions while designing a floorplan so you can give more space to the areas you love most.
