Our Promise
Family • Established 1989
Founded as a family business with generations of log and timber building experience.
For all Caribou Creek log homes, every aspect of the build is part of a smooth easy process that sets the foundation for quality. Log cabins are created by artisans following specific procedures that have been honed and passed down for generations. Throughout each project, the construction, and excellence in craftsmanship is consistent. Logs are fitted together with an emphasis on creating a solid structure with all of the electrical components and windows cut out and ready for finishing.
“Old fashioned values – honesty, integrity, and treating others as we would like to be treated ourselves – are core beliefs at Caribou Creek Log and Timber.”

David Byler
Founder & Business Development Executive
Since our beginnings we have brought hundreds of log, timber frame, and commercial structures to life.
Working hand in hand with the homeowners who dream them, the architects who design them, and the builders who bring them home. Our in house design team joins projects at the earliest sketches, shaping concepts alongside your vision and validating what is actually buildable before a single log is cut.
Drawing on every build since 1989, that team often brings ideas to the table that would not have surfaced otherwise. For our trade partners, that means one less thing to manage: design, engineering, milling, and craftsmanship handled by a team as invested in your project’s success as you are.

Handcrafted Log Home and Timber Structure Builders
We help people turn dreams into plans, and plans into homes.
Once most people have seen a handcrafted home, there’s no going back. Handcrafting brings out the natural beauty and character of each individual log and timber, so every home is as unique as the family who lives in it. We fell in love with wood a long time ago, and it’s why we still build every home by hand.
Quality control runs through every phase of the build, from the first cut in our yard to delivery and reassembly on your site. We build every home as if it were our own.
We’re with you at every step, from the first design conversation to the last log set on your home. And while your contractor completes the finish work, our team is still a phone call away for technical support.
We work directly with homeowners and general contractors, with no dealers or independent salespeople in between. Without those added markups, you get more value for your investment, and communication stays clear from start to finish, which means fewer costly, time-consuming errors.
