To minimize maintenance you need big roof overhangs and porches. My house has 4 foot roof overhangs on the gable ends, and full length porches on the long sides.
Gotta keep rain, snow, and sun off of the logs.



Soooo true, and I will add, get them up off the ground a foot and a half or two, at least.
