“I first met Art Holland on March 15, 2001. I remember because that was the day my cabin at Deep Creek Lake caught fire and burned to the ground. Once we had made the decision to rebuild, calling Art was my first thought. I had admired his building style, using larger diameter logs and his “Yellowstone Log Homes” business was thriving after having built about 100 homes here in the area. We took several months to decide what we wanted and then approached Art. Art’s passion in life is building homes that fulfill his customers’ dreams, and that was apparent to us immediately. I had drawings we had sketched and some ideas about what we wanted, but it was Art who carefully guided us by pointing out alternatives that we hadn’t thought of or different ideas that were cheaper, or easier to accomplish. Some trickier details of the job were artfully built, and the end result was a unique home that we LOVE living in. When we had an unfortunate flood from a frozen pipe just weeks before completion that did $100,000 worth of damage, Art stepped right up to deal with the insurance company and had remediation efforts started immediately. Beyond building a beautiful home for us, Art has helped us maintain the home, and when issues arose, he has always been there for us and provided support more like you’d expect from a friend than a builder. I could not possibly recommend anyone more highly to build a custom home. — RICK FRANZ”

“My wife and I are very pleased with the experience we had building our first home with David James. I would have liked a little more insight in the planning phase. We discussed with the sales rep on several occasions about wanting to finish the basement. After the the house was completed, we realized that we should have raised the basement walls several inches to accommodate for the flooring etc. While we should have thought of this, I fee like the folks with the experience should have caught it. All in all this was my one chief complaint. The folks were all friendly and helpful. We put in our own cabinets and flooring and they were willing to shift their work schedules to accommodate us. The base products for finishing were of quality and the upgrades did not add that much to the price. If I had to do it again, I would go with David James, no doubt.”
