PINE RIVER LODGE

PINE RIVER, MINNESOTA

This fresh take on a classic lake cabin sits on a bluff in the Brainerd area of Central Minnesota. Large picture windows bring the panoramic south-facing views into every space of the house.  The goal was to create a beautiful retreat with a quiet elegance that seamlessly blends with its environment.  The courtyard formed by the cabin, garage, and guest cottage can cleverly be transformed into a pickleball court, a must for weekend getaways.  The warm and inviting interiors feature white-washed cedar paneling and oak floors, which create a setting of natural materials evoking relaxation and a strong connection to nature.
