CLIENT STORIES
Stories Behind
Our log Homes
For more than 30 years, we’ve had the privilege of bringing extraordinary visions to life through honest materials, thoughtful design, and enduring craftsmanship. Along the way, many of our clients have become lasting friends.
These are the stories behind the homes, and the people who made them their own.
The Thompson Residence
Western Red Cedar Post & Beam Home in Louisiana
What began as a modest cabin evolved into a cherished family home, a place where everyone gathers together. A story of vision, craftsmanship, and a twenty-year partnership.
THE CHALLENGE
Expand a 20-year-old handcrafted stacked log home while ensuring the new construction felt seamless, preserving the character and authenticity of the original cabin rather than appearing as an obvious addition.
THE SOLUTION
A creative Western Red Cedar post and beam design that opened the home to the lake, maximizing views from nearly every new living space while blending naturally with the existing structure.
THE RESULT
A breathtaking custom log home featuring dramatic rooflines, exceptional interior craftsmanship, and panoramic lake views. What began as a modest cabin has evolved into a timeless family retreat designed to be enjoyed for generations.
“Steve, John, and the entire Stonewood team crushed every detail and helped us achieve the home we had been dreaming about for years. The 3D visualizations made it easy to see exactly what we were getting, giving us the confidence to move forward with the build.”
