Northshore Cabin

This modern take on a log cabin is simple, stylish and takes advantage of of an idyllic lakeside setting. Designed by Pearson Design Group, this amazing vacation retreat by the water is composed by a two-bedroom main house and a one-room boathouse-style studio that connects to the water with a deck that leads to a dock. Both buildings feature lake-facing walls of glass that offer views encompassing forest, wetlands, water and mountains. Inside the house, the materials, details and furnishings are simple and spare, including naturally aged Douglas fir paneling, deck-stained oak-plank floors, and steel beams that enhance the casual rustic aesthetic.
