Mike McGunagle is a lifelong craftsman and furniture artisan whose roots in woodworking trace back to his teenage years, building homes alongside his father in Bodega Bay, California. What began as hands-on experience in construction quickly evolved into a lifelong passion for designing and building with purpose, precision, and heart.

Mike went on to establish his own business and later purchased Natural Choice Furniture Factory in Redding, California. There, he specialized in innovative, space-saving solutions such as wall beds and chest beds—earning a reputation for quality, functionality, and timeless craftsmanship.

Now based in Bigfork, Montana, Mike continues to serve his community with the same dedication that shaped his early career. He built his own home from the ground up and brings decades of experience to every project, whether he’s crafting a custom piece or solving a structural challenge with artistic integrity.

Craftsmanship runs deep in the McGunagle family. Mike is one of many in a long line of builders and furniture artists—a lineage that stretches back to the Great Depression. This legacy lives on in his work, where old-world skill meets modern design to create pieces that are not only functional, but deeply personal.
