Log Cabins 2 Go by Gastineau Log Homes is a new concept using full log wall construction in a park model housing unit. The Log Cabins 2 Go are manufactured in a controlled environment and they are completely finished and ready to enjoy upon arrival at your site. The log construction includes dovetailed corners, are sealed on the exterior, varnished on the interior, and they don’t exceed 410 square feet. This is the only full oak log park model available in the world! (Don’t confuse this with a park model with log siding on the exterior. The Log Cabin 2 Go has full log exterior walls and is built like a real log cabin!)
Here is a picturesque 400 square foot Log Cabin 2 Go that offers its owners a rustic retreat in the heart of Missouri. The couple has roughly 10 acres with a little pond where they can fish and enjoy the outdoors. The owners are retired and their children and grandchildren live in the St. Louis area and visit often to get away from the hustle and bustle. “This getaway home was planned so that it was close enough where the owners could drive to easily, but still is out in the country,” says Lynn Gastineau, of Gastineau Log Homes.
Log Cabins 2 Go was the brain child of Lynn Gastineau and these units offered the perfect weekend cabin, especially in locations where it is difficult to site build or there are property restrictions. Hunting cabins, art studios, and guest cabins have been popular for consumers and camps are using them as rental units for lakes and other recreational areas. Each Log Cabin 2 Go unit has cathedral beamed tongue and groove ceilings. All of the floors are finished with 3/4″ solid oak flooring. Each cabin has a green metal roof and is complete with a 100 amp electrical box and a 20-gallon electric water heater. The kitchen and bath are fully functional and include custom wood cabinets. Although titled as a recreational vehicle, a Log Cabin 2 Go feels like and is built like a true log cabin. It makes it the perfect cabin to go to, anytime, anywhere.

Love the interior… Really beautiful!
I’d love something such as that where I have my current mobile home. Love the porch. (and how much $$)
I really like the size, but I have the same question. How much? I have a feeling that it’s more than I want to pay.

WOW! I want one just like this!
Are there wheels hiding behind that foundation?
LC2G wheels, axles and tongue assembly are bolt on and are typically removed and may be stored underneath the park model. The unit is blocked, leveled and tied down on pier or slab foundation.
This thing must be HEAVY. I wonder if it requires a 1 ton truck or bigger to pull it. I really like the quality of the build though.
LC2G weight can approach 40,000lbs. A heavy hauler with permits is contracted for moving these units.
hmm a nice quiet location abd everything looks great from the inside
Gastineau is a premier manufacturer of traditional log homes, and it is exciting to see that the company is manufacturing a full log park model. Thanks, Kent, for sharing this information.
