Tim & Carol Lloyd already had the beautiful acreage to situate their getaway cabin, they just needed the cabin.  That’s where Honest Abe Log Homes came in.  Working with Inez Price out of Moss, Tennessee, Tim & Carol designed their ideal plan.

Located on a small hill overlooking a pond is a 28’ x 46’ log home with a full basement underneath.  It holds one bedroom, 2 baths, and a utility room on one side. The other half has approximately 800 square feet of open area that makes up the dining, kitchen and living room area, and a porch runs across the front of the house.

The Lloyds chose to add an extra log course around the perimeter giving them added ceiling height.  They also used scissor trusses on the open area, which supplemented the idea of adding ceiling height with the pitched interior look.

Ronnie Carter and crew have finished up the dry-in, and the house looks awesome!  Congratulations to Tim Lloyd!
