Smart Design for a Smaller Footprint
The Elkhorn Grande Chalet is engineered to deliver the feel of a larger home while maintaining a more compact footprint, ideal for tighter lots or vacation properties. With a well-proportioned loft and dramatic dormers, the home feels open and airy — without the added costs of a larger structure.
The upstairs layout provides privacy and flow, and the loft opens up to a balcony deck perfect for enjoying mountain views, morning coffee, or stargazing. This makes the Elkhorn Grande a great fit for couples, retirees, or small families wanting luxury and character in a manageable build size.

Built in Montana – Nationwide Shipping
Like all Lazarus Log Homes, the Elkhorn Grande Chalet is handcrafted from dead-standing, sustainably sourced timber at our Montana facility. We offer nationwide delivery across the U.S. and Canada along with free design consultations to tailor this model to your vision and property.
Fully Customizable Log Cabin Kit Designs
You can flip the floorplan left to right, up, down, move things around to make rooms larger and others smaller, stretch the design (more costs), shrink it (save $), make it taller, different wall log diameters, add or subtract deck, railing, porches, entry trusses, add a garage, you name it, all doable. We try to advise you to keep the bathrooms stacked (plumbing costs), so a wet wall is shared, and some design elements like ridge lines and posts need to be approximately where they are, but the sky is the limit (let us help you get what you want)!
