(Scroll to Bottom to View Floor Plan)

The Montana Plan is a 1932 square foot log home package. Based on an 8×8 D-log from Dead Standing Lodge Pole Pine.

This is a full dry in package price, plus subfloor, interior framing, and a few other inclusions as listed below.

When considering a log home be sure to get a detailed list of exactly what the package includes and to what degree the logs are cut.

Our packages are fully precut and pre-numbered. The butt joints are made with finger joinery, all of the electric box holes and wire holes are pre cut and pre drilled. Having the logs prepared in this way saves tremendously with on site construction time. We offer both handcrafted log homes and milled log homes.

The plan below, the Montana, is just a sample of our work. We are happy to work with customers personally to lay out a home. Also we provide pricing on any floor plan. Our mill is extending their scheduling discounts into the fall. Give us a call at 406-388-3458 for details.

Thank you,
