Estemerwalt Log Homes proudly uses Eastern White Pine to craft its gorgeous getaways, and even boasts its own sawmill. “Every log, every piece of siding, every timber, every piece of tongue and groove, and nearly every wood surface you will see in your new home was sawn, dried and manufactured right here,” they say.

Log Cabin Homes in Rocky Point, North Carolina
“Eastern White Pine is lightweight, soft, even-textured, light in color and easily worked, making it a great choice of pine log homes,” says Log Cabin Homes, a builder based in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. “Eastern White Pine is probably the least resinous of all pines. Its remarkable durability is evidenced by the number of houses built of Eastern White Pine in New England 200 or more years ago still in existence.”
