Donnie Thimmes’ log home is more than a dream come true—it’s a testament to resilience, friendship, and the love of the outdoors. Built with the help of close friends in central Ohio, the home is based on the McKay model with thoughtful modifications for accessibility, including oversized doors, a breezeway, and a custom stall for his beloved horse, Duke. Inside, nature-inspired décor, a firehouse-themed bunk room, and a wildlife-filled man cave reflect Donnie’s passions and past. Every feature, from the kitchen island to the chair lift, ensures comfort, proving that with determination and community, anything is possible.
