Log houses all-natural building materials mean that you won't suffer from harmful residues as you might with manmade building materials. And when coupled with low-VOC wood stains and regular maintenance, you will have a healthier indoor environment for you and your family. And a cabin building can be considered a green build, as many log home manufacturers use standing dead timbers which, when felled, help to improve the health of the forest and also reduce wildfire threat.

And many log house manufacturers recycle the waste that they do create into mulch or even into biofuel to help heat their mills.
