Description
What’s it really like to build and own a log home?
In this episode of Acorn & Leaf, Lynn and Lacey sit down with Gastineau homeowner Nan to talk through her entire journey, from the early dreaming and planning stages to the emotional experience of finally stepping into her completed Colorado retreat home.
For Nan and her family, this isn’t just a vacation home. It’s a place to slow down, reconnect, and experience the peace and tranquility that comes with mountain living in a handcrafted Gastineau home. Living near St. Louis, Missouri, every trip west has become something special — a chance to escape the noise and settle into the warmth, comfort, and atmosphere of their Colorado retreat.
They discuss:
-The inspiration behind building in Colorado
-The planning and design process
-What surprised them during the build
-The emotional connection that comes with log home living
-Why the home feels different every time they return
If you’ve ever dreamed about building a log home, this conversation gives a genuine, heartfelt look into what that journey can feel like from a real Gastineau homeowner.
