A Lovely Place

  This weekend my husband, mom, sister and I went and visited a truly lovely place. I will post some pictures so you can have a taste of where we were. This place used to be a wilderness experience guest ranch and it has such a unique beauty. It was originally built in 1930. It has a mountain guarding it behind and open fields in front. Across the road are trails that lead into the hills where lakes and views abound. We had a wonderful day.

                                              This is a view down the driveway

                                   This is an apple orchard waiting out the Winter snow

                                                         The exterior wall of the home

                        Inside there is an open concept kitchen, living room, dining room

This shows the front door, dining area, the living room is behind that wall where the kitchen sink is in the corner

                                             This is an upstairs sitting area

You can see a bit of the living room, the dining room table and a tiny bit of kitchen counter from this view. 

    Upstairs has many small bedrooms for guests to stay in plus a front deck and back deck and full bathroom.

 
                                             Another little sitting area upstairs

       This lodge has a very narrow curved stair case that is pretty amazing

                                                    A random little mouse house

The view from behind the kitchen ~ there is an old fashioned cook stove just in case you lose power

                                   The view standing by the front door of the dining room area.

                                                             Here is the living room

                                                          Just part of the décor

                    The front of the lodge ~ Spring has yet to find this area of the world

The main house, carport and a large room that the owner used to teach English to guests from other countries

                    A two seater outhouse. One side for the ladies, the other for the men

                                          The hay loft section of the log barn

                                      Amazing craftsmanship that stands the test of time

                                                         The tack room in the barn

                                                        A sweet horse named Belle

    This is the Trapper's Cabin that is beside the car port with a shower room on the side.

                                                     Inside the Trapper's Cabin

                     I can imagine that Spring in this part of the world is extra magnificent

                                               An old tree house needing some love.

  This is not on the ranch but on the drive to the lake that is close by. I wanted to document that this might have been this treasure's last winter standing.

                                     And here is the lake. It is incredibly beautiful.

                                  This is the river that is also very close to the ranch
