There is something special about hunters gathering in a log cabin at the end of a hunt. Log cabins are an icon of hunting that serve to remind us of the rich traditions renewed with each season. To own a hunting "shack," that is anything but a shack, is more special when it is highly functional for the hardcore hunter.

Log cabins fit perfectly into the Loess Hills rugged timbered landscape and can offer you many years of memories, as well as increased value in your land.  There is something about the warmth of the wood in these cabins and the peaceful serenity of nature that can turn a weekend off into a relaxing getaway. 

With that very thought in mind, Whitetail Properties TV and Barna Log Homes have partnered to create five floor plans strategically designed for hunters. "Barna is the best log home company in the industry and we are excited to partner with them to create designs that hunters will love," said Paul Sawyer of Whitetail Properties TV.

Those who take their hunting seriously demand a lot from their equipment. A well-designed log home can be a major asset to a successful hunt, not to mention a great place to gather and tell stories at the end of the day. "These homes are built specifically for putting the odds in favor of the hunter without sacrificing the good looks and comfort of a log structure," Sawyer said.

Whitetail deer hunters will love that the house is designed with scent-control in mind. Popular features are a room with scent-controlled lockers, full laundry facilities, sink, shower, floor drain for easy clean-up and hard-wired boot and glove dryers. Waterfowlers will enjoy the mud room with a large work bench that doubles as a kennel and features stainless steel countertops for cleaning birds at the end of a satisfying day. With a floor drain, concrete floor, and kennel access to a fenced-in area outside, it has features every hunter and dog can appreciate.

The pairing of Barna and Whitetail Properties speaks volumes from a hunting and land investment standpoint, but it goes much deeper than that. Barna Log Homes are designed to inspire your passion and it is difficult to find someone more passionate than a hardcore hunter. Created with tremendous craftsmanship and detail, acquiring a Barna home is the perfect opportunity to turn your dreams into reality.

The five designs will be available in early 2008 and can be seen at the Barna Log Homes website www.barnahomes.com and Whitetail Properties TV website www.whitetailproperties.tv
