Odds are, if you’re building a log home then you’re probably going to have a fireplace.
I guess it would be kind of sacrilegious not to include a fireplace in your log home plans.
But, I’ve got to admit… I seriously considered not putting one in our log home.
Why?
Because my theory is that fireplaces are very much like swimming pools, hot tubs, treadmills, swing sets, and trampolines — you never end up using them as much as you thought you would.
