Over the weekend we lit our first official fire of the season. The mornings and evenings are now consistently chilly, and I'm not leaving the house without at least a coat or jacket for a while. It's this time of year when my focus on beach and pool houses shifts over to mountain lodges and retreats. Something about being surrounded by dramatic wooden beams and fireplaces along with fur throws and flannels seems to lessen the harsh reality of the cold months ahead. This Big Sky, Montana house by the design team
Lucas Studio holds all these warm elements and so much more.
Love the cozy pics...you are right....Ive cleaned out my fireplace and its ready and waiting...a chill is definitely in the air!

great cozy spaces! You are making me homesick for our Muskoka cottage - I'd have the fire going by now too. Oh well, back to the flip flops!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. I'd like to cozy up there with good friends or a good book. We lit our first fire last weekend. I can't believe we are speeding toward November, but am loving all the wonders of fall.
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday!
A lot of times I find that cabin equals hokey but this is so chic and well done I'd live here any day.
ReplyDeleteSince one fireplace is being rebuilt...just got the living room fireplace set up for a winter's worth of relaxing!! Love the Big Sky lodge feel....and oh what I would give to be curled up in front of one this week!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Week, Sue!

I'd have to include Slim Paley's retreat in here - now that is rustic I'd love to get some r&r at!
ReplyDeleteThe 1st fire of the season is always so wonderful. I love cozying up by the fire with blankets and a cup of tea. Hope you had a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteI love the rustic natural beams with the dark carved wood pieces in the stairwell and bedroom, very cozy!
ReplyDeleteWe have a fireplace in our temporary apt. here but it is still in the 80s here in Dallas....sigh....Love the lodge look....
ReplyDeleteOh boy this looks so cozy...I think I will go hit the button and start my fire...ps saw your place featured on Houzz, very cool!
ReplyDeleteI love rustic interiors,
ReplyDeletethey're so warm and cozy.
the staircase, WOW, i love the exposed natural wood theme in houses, as the colour of the wood changes over time. Hopefully one day I can own a home with the much wood in it! thank you so much for sharing!
