Stone, Wood and Steel: Keep Your Cabin Rustic With Custom Metal Work

No matter what stage you're at while building a cabin on Lake of the Woods, it's never too late to consider the final, finishing details. One of the subtlest ways to enhance your cottage's woodsy charm is with rustic metallic accents.


When it comes to metal work, your options are only limited by your imagination. Whether it's lighting elements, balconies, or furniture, any aspect of your cabin can be given a raw, natural accent with iron or steel. As we've explored previously, this home utilizes a custom railing to tie the cottage together inside and out.
Your metal work doesn't all have to be this extensive however. In the below example, a few rough, chunky braces take this cabin's mantel logs to the next level of rustic Canadian charm.
