Pioneer Log Homes is the US builder of fine, custom log homes. Founded over 30 years ago by Jay Pohley, Pioneer Log Homes has custom-built luxury homes and commercial structures all over the world. Pioneer Log Homes built the log home style Bass Pro Shops’ Outdoor World retail locations, as well as many celebrity log homes. Pioneer Log Homes builds each home with naturally dry-standing timber that were killed in Western forests. This timber has better structural integrity and supports green construction since no live trees were harvested for the project. As opposed to tearing live trees from the ground in order to have ornate rootstock, Pioneer Log Homes in the USA hand selects and hand finishes each log used.
