Great fun to simply page through May 22, 2003 By Midwest Book Review
The Not So Log Cabin: Log-Element Building & Design by log construction expert Robbin Obomsawin (Construction Manager and General Contactor for Beaver Creek Log Homes) is a grand and unique presentation of techniques and results for detailing log-element homes exhibiting an extra flair for creativity, originality, modern flair, and more. Suggestions for adding extra eye-catching touches to a log home and full-color photographs fill the pages of this superbly presented compendium, which is so vibrant and lavish that it is great fun to simply page through.

Extremely disappointing Aug 18, 2003 By Merilee Pinkerton
This sounded like a cool book idea, and I love cabins and log homes, so I ordered it. The photos are very disappointing. The homes are not the quality I expected. The book has a very regional, western look to it, which is a shame considering the fact that interesting and varied log homes can be found from coast to coast. They should have called this WESTERN LOG HOMES.

disappointing Aug 27, 2008 By Teacher/Photographer
While the homes are very beautiful, they are intended for the very wealthy. I enjoyed many of the floor plans, including some of more modest proportions, but strangely, none of the homes illustrated correspond to any of the floor plans featured in the book! The photographs are very attractive, but for most of us, the uber-designer look and (ergo) expense makes these homes unattainable.
