I would wash those logs and oil them, this looks very well constructed and chinked.
Our previous homeowner just placed standard paneling directly over the logs and painted it to give the bedrooms are more bright and lighter color -to be a break from all brown log walls. The cross members were left as is and painted.
Im not sure about insulation, sorry.
We put foil backed insulation sheets up on all our walls behind the paneling. When we built our house, I thought one day I might want to paint or wallpaper the walls, but still I have the paneling up. Anyway, it definitely soundproofed each room, plus the insulation is awesome! Definitely helps with heating and cooling bills!
Thank you good idea because a few places the logs slightly separated and on a windy day you can feel the breeze
Like the previous answer I would clean and oil those logs and re-chink where needed, after you bought a log home.
The one thing you will have to do, especially if this is an outside wall, is to put up a vapor barrier. Otherwise condensation will form and cause mold and eventually rot. This will reduce your inside space substantially. Why did you buy a log cabin if you don't want to see the beauty of the natural wood? Hang a specialty rug or large macrome if you want a change.
