About Us

The Log Home Builders Association was founded in 1965. Since then we have taught tens of thousands of members from around the United States how to build a log home. Many of those students have gone on to build their own log home, many without a mortgage.

Our founder built hundreds of log homes in his lifetime, including his own 7,000+ square foot masterpiece in the Pacific northwest. That home was later used in the filming of the television show "Northern Exposure" as the house of Maurice the retired astronaut.

In his later years our founder retired to the Philippines, built a resort and started a medical charity mission that is still in operation today. He died in 2008 and the LHBA tradition is now being continued by family members. The LHBA and all of its operations are dedicated to his memory.
