In 1966, Wally and Marlace Parmeter founded the Golden Eagle Building Center in Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin. With the knowledge gained from building conventional framed homes and an in-depth understanding of the building products industry, the Parmeters decided to pursue their dream of building a log home in which to raise their family. Trees were individually selected from their own property and then carefully cut into logs and allowed to dry completely for one full year. Construction then began on the first Golden Eagle Log home, an event that did not go unnoticed by onlookers. No sooner had the Parmeters' moved in, than they were approached by others who were impressed by the quality craftsmanship and materials used in the home. This led to a small side business which began providing several custom log home packages a year to appreciative clientele. It was in 1986, that Wally and Marlace decided to pursue their love of log construction by officially founding Golden Eagle Log Homes. The boys embarked on a busy time of assembling the necessary land, building the necessary shop space and purchasing and installing the required machinery. During the day the boys ran the thriving building center and in the evening manufactured log homes, long into the night. In these days, the company "board" meetings consisted of sitting at the family picnic table under a clear blue Wisconsin sky. Their dedication was so strong that sales from their "night job" soon surpassed those of the building center. Wally and Marlace retired in 1997, but not before making sure that the business was left in capable hands. Today, Golden Eagle Log Homes is owned by their sons Jay and Tod Parmeter. The company produces 100 log homes a year. Every one of them, delivered with care, attention-to-detail and personal service. Golden Eagle's success comes from a dedicated group of people devoted to the time honored tradition of quality workmanship. From the very beginning, the company has enjoyed continued growth, but the principle on which it all began remains the same - to offer superior log homes at fair and affordable prices.

From start to finish. We did tremendous research and decided on GE. Our sales rep Jon Wendt went above and beyond every day for us. There is no detail too small when GE is in charge of your dream house! We were afraid that we couldn't afford a log home but working with Jon he figured everything out from start to finish. We couldn't be happier! Additionally GE recommendation of Matt Clarke from Clarke Building in NH built our dream. Both Matt and GE worked together as an amazing team!!!!

LikeNovember 9, 2020 HU-299450512 Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars Relationship Client We searched for the right log home builder to build our dream retirement home for two years before selecting Golden Eagle Log & Timber Homes (GELH). We met Jeff Heeg (Sales Advisor) at the Minneapolis Lake Home & Cabin Show and knew we met our log home builder. Jeff was a joy to talk with from the first discussion and his knowledge navigated us through the entire process. This was our first log home and Jeff patiently answered all our questions in a timely manner. We have been living in our GELH for the past five months and love the quality of the materials and workmanship. There isn't a week that goes by without my wife or I saying we can't believe we live in such a beautiful home. Jeff Heeg assisted us in building our dream home. Great job Jeff and GELH! We highly recommend GELH and Jeff Heeg to build your dream log home! Mike & Mary L. LikeOctober 16, 2020 Judy Speranza Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars Relationship Client We worked with the Final Selections team (Zach and Dala) to pick the fixtures, doors, cabinets, etc. for our GELH future retirement home. These 2 were amazing. A normally overwhelming process was made easy and enjoyable! Both are very talented, knowledgeable, and courteous. A thoroughly enjoyable experience. LikeAugust 13, 2020 Comment from Golden Eagle Log & Timber Homes: Judy & Phil, thank you for choosing Golden Eagle. We have enjoyed being a part of your project, and we look forward to seeing it all come together! We'll pass along the compliments to Zach & Dala. Thank you, Jay & Tod Parmeter Brad Murphy Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars Relationship Client Our journey started by meeting Jeff Heeg at the Lake Home & Cabin Show in Madison, WI in January 2018. We were negotiating for an 80 acre wooded parcel near Norwalk WI that included a 25 acre pond. Among the exhibitors at the show, GE stood out because of the quality of workmanship and the ability to offer a turnkey building process. By May 2018, we had closed on the land, signed a contract with GE and found a general contractor who is very familiar with the GE product and process. The design process was challenging for our family of six (grandparents, son, daughter-in-law and two granddaughters), but made easier and fun by choosing most options at the GE headquarters near Wisconsin Rapids, WI. Your staff were very helpful by listening closely to our ideas and then making suggestions to accomplish our goals. The final floor plans were detailed and specific enough to guide all sub-contractors in their roles. One of the highlights of our cabin was the customized carving on the central beam, you offered as an option early in the design phase. We were able to work with the professional wood carver, who performed his art on the 10”x10” log before it was installed in the structure. Materials were delivered in a timely fashion. We had no major issues with the quality of the whole logs and other building supplies for our 1874 s.f. cabin, including a loft and a full drive-under basement. Our only issue was the delivery and installation of the wrong loft railing. GE replaced this railing and covered the extra cost of our general contractor’s labor. The Murphy family would highly recommend Jeff Heeg and Golden Eagle to other families considering a log or timber home. In both quality of workmanship and professionalism of staff, they are unsurpassed. LikeNovember 7, 2019 Craig Cooper Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars Relationship Client Kathleen and I started researching log & timber framed homes online, and independently found ourselves both looking hard at all the building options offered @ Golden Eagle. We were impressed with the wide variety offered, from timber framed homes to full log construction, with material packages right down to the kitchen sink. Despite being surrounded in NC by log home companies, we traveled to Wisconsin to meet the people of Golden Eagle, spending several days at their facility, and touring four different custom log/timber homes. Our original contact Jeff was instrumental in laying the groundwork for our visit, and once there, family members Jay and Zach spent the entire day with us at the custom log/timber home we hoped to build. The next day we learned about all aspects of the log building process, and met the entire Golden Eagle “family”. It was probably this group, across the board, made up of Parmeter family members and employees, that solidified our choice to make Golden Eagle the team to make our custom log/timber home a reality. We are now in the final stages of customizing our plans, and are excited about working with such an experienced and family oriented group of craftsmen. LikeOctober 17, 2019 Marlace P Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars Relationship Client My husband and I have lived in our Golden Eagle Log Home for 9 years, and we can't say enough good things about it. We would build again with Golden Eagle if this wasn't already our forever home. Zach was great at guiding us through the experience, and the folks at Golden Eagle were terrific to work with. We highly recommend working with Golden Eagle. Like (1)August 9, 2019Last modified:August 9, 2019 Comment from Golden Eagle Log & Timber Homes: Thank you for this wonderful review, Marlace!

Linda Wilson Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars Relationship Prospective client The Golden Eagle facility is a must see! Jan was very informative and the showroom allows you to see what your home can become! Like (1)July 31, 2019 snoos43 Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars Relationship Client Zach from Golden Eagle worked with us and it had great insight as to the design of our project. The people there are all very friendly and what sold us and choosing Golden Eagle was the fact that they could package the majority of the project through their location without having to run to several outlets for suggestions.. There are some selections we need to make outside of Golden Eagle but minimal. They also seem to research the quality of the products they carry so you can depend upon them This was such a different approach that completely separates them from other builders we were looking at.. Highly recommend it if the above is important for you. Like (1)July 27, 2019 Jill Hauck Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars Relationship Client This log home company is amazing! I am nearing the end of the designing portion of my build. The expected build start date is Sept. 2019. We drove approximately 4 hours to the main facilities to meet with my team from GELH, Sandy Kemppainen, Derrick Schultz, and Justin Jankowski on 06/13/19 to complete the final selections for my new log home. They were so welcoming, professional, ,and knowledgeable. We spent the entire day making choices. Derrick designed the kitchen of my dreams, And all three of them helped me design the log home I have been dreaming about since I was very young. It was an incredible experience. I highly recommend Golden Eagle Log & Timber homes if you are considering this type of new home!!!

We appreciate you visiting us - and it has been great to see the evolution of your home plans. Your home will be under construction before you know it, and you’ll soon be able to enjoy it and build memories there! Thank you for picking us to be a part of your project. It means a lot. Todd Bruton Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars Relationship Early stages of the process to-date. Anticipate hiring in near future. Based on previous research, we were relatively certain that we were going with Golden Eagle Log and Timber Homes. After our visit to their facility, and visiting with Jan...there is no doubt. We expect to finalize a purchase in the next year-or-two. The customer service, and quality of workmanship is--in my opinion--unsurpassed in this industry. Like (1)June 11, 2019 Comment from Golden Eagle Log & Timber Homes: Todd, thank you for making the visit from Missouri! We appreciate you taking the time to visit us and learn about what we do at Golden Eagle! Freed Fairfield Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars Relationship Prospective customer We attended a factory tour and visited two off-site homes in May, 2019. If you have the opportunity - I suggest you go. We drove 4 hours each way and stayed overnight before the tour. Well worth the time and effort. The overall cleanliness of the factory and the quality of the product displays is remarkable. Just that in itself is an example of the extreme pride that they have in everything that they do at Golden Eagle. The homes were excellent examples. Well done and designed with elements of individual creativity incorporated by the Golden Eagle designers and fabricators. I think you can design your dream home, receive proper advice and expect it to become reality when built. Very professional. Like (1)May 9, 2019 CHUCK GARBINSKI Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars Relationship Client I visited Golden Eagle Log Homes two weeks ago so that I could see first-hand, their model home, walk through their showrooms and consider the myriad material and design options that they offer. They have a fabulous facility well worth visiting in person. But most importantly, I was so pleased to meet the folks that really make this the best choice for a custom home. They do it all - classic log and timber of all types, or in my case, a hybrid design using the latest maintenance free exterior materials offering that great "log look" with the benefit of real log / wood interiors that I know are just going to be spectacular. I cannot recommend these folks enough; they are clearly the real deal. Everyone I met there I found to be knowledgeable, helpful, and enthusiastic about their homes and log home building in general. I chose Golden Eagle over quite a few other options on the internet, based on their completeness and flexibility of packages, thoroughness in their design and support effort, and seemingly endless options to tailor my home package to just exactly what I need and want. I should also mention, I think their prices are very fair, given the quality of their materials and building standards. I would highly recommend anyone interested in a custom log home to call these nice folks and have a chat with them; you will certainly be impressed.
