can lead to unexpected and charming places...
Some very dear friends have a wonderful camp on the lake. They have graciously agreed to allow a little peek into this beautiful unpretentious retreat. The first unexpected surprise is the beautiful black iron chandelier that greets you in the foyer.
Another view of the foyer from the staircase. Did you notice the touch of whimsy in the room? It is a cute soft furry beaver pillow.
Here is one of many dining spots. A quaint and inviting table for two. The mixing of furniture pieces is most charming along with the beaded board wall treatment which is a design element that mixes informality with tradition.
Here is a view from the gathering room with a glimpse into the kitchen. Friends and family can crash on the comfortable denim sofa after a long day of fun in the sun on the lake.
The bird houses in the dining room bring the outdoors in.
Lots of textures on the sun porch -the stone wall, wicker rockers, iron chairs, and the large glass panes make this a most relaxing room. The casual dining set offers another great place for lunch or a mean game of Blockus.
The master suite.... Don't you love the stained glass doors, beautiful beaded board ceiling, and gorgeous red classic toile? The double glass doors open to a private patio. On the other side of the room is a wall of windows with a beautiful view of the lake.
Here is a favorite sleeping room for deep sleepers.
Stairs with a wrought iron banister are inviting.
Where another retiring spot awaits. This one in soft blues and greens.
Isn't this desk inviting? 
Hope you enjoyed a tour at the lake.
You never know what beauty you might find... hidden in the woods.
