Who We Are
In 2006, the Zook family had a dream to provide their customers with modular log cabins, and they founded Zook Cabins to improve their customers’ experience in log cabin living. Many people felt that building a log cabin was time-consuming, stressful, and expensive, so the Zook family’s goal was to make it as easy and efficient as possible for their customers to own their log cabin! Since that time, they have built and delivered many modular log cabins to customers all over the country! With quality core values, stellar customer service, and a valued reputation, this Amish cabin builder is the perfect place to look if you are searching for your dream log cabin!
