Product Information
We mix rustic cedar and pine rustic log furniture all the time. The cedar and pine we use is nearly identical in color. The main difference is that the cedar tends to have more knots and more streaks of color to the wood. Many of our pine log dressers, pine log chests and and pine log nightstands have cedar handles and/or trim. We have customers who purchase pine log beds and cedar log dressers, and vice versa, and it all looks very nice together.
The logs in our rustic pine log beds and pine bunk beds–are uniformly 3 inches in diameter. The cedar logs vary a little more. Logs in the cedar low post beds we offer range in diameter from 4 to 5 inches wide, while logs in the Amish beds are generally in the 6-7 inch range. We work with you for comparable sizing of the logs we have available. If you want the look of larger logs, please order accordingly.
All of our log beds are extremely strong, durable and stable, so that should not be an issue in selecting the log bed that’s right for you.
After the rustic log furniture drying process is complete, German-peeled logs are rotated against a set of spinning blades. The end result is a relatively smooth peeled look, smooth enough so that it shouldn’t give you a splinter. German-peeled logs may still have some rough spots, however, and may, under the right circumstances, snag a sweater or hose. If you want your logs smoother than this, you need to select the hand-sanded option. Under this option we hand-sand the logs down so that they are very smooth.
Yes. All of our rustic log beds and reclaimed wood beds are manufacturered to take standard size mattresses.
Most of the rustic furniture on our site is handcrafted and will literally be one-of-a-kind. Our photos are representative examples of the general structure and color of the piece you will receive, but there can be slight natural variations in color, “checking” and natural character such as beetle tracks, elk chew marks. Also, in our quest to provide the most comfortable and durable log furniture, we may periodically implement small structural changes when compared to some of the photos.
A bunky board is a flat board, which lies on top of the support slats on a bed. The bunky board performs the same function as a box spring in that it provides a flat surface to support the mattress. If a mattress were put on the bed’s support slats without the bunky board, the mattress would eventually start to sag between the slats. Bunky boards can be used on all beds in lieu of a box spring, but we recommend them especially for bunk beds as they are only about 3/4″ thick and allow for maximum head room on both upper and lower bunks.

Outside rustic log furniture will weather to a gray if left unfinished. Inside rustic log furniture will darken slightly, but is fine if left unfinished. A protective finish will keep outside rustic log furniture from weathering, and protect inside rustic log furniture from crayon marks, fingerprints, and grime that may accumulate in a dusty environment. Some people prefer to finish their rustic log furniture themselves, others leave it unfinished, while many others have us finish it for them. In the end, it’s all a matter of personal preference.
