Getting Settled

We are getting settled nicely into our new house. We have almost all the furniture in place, and just a few things yet to buy. Jack is going to build us a bed for our Master Bedroom, as you see here. We have to get or build nightstands for that room.




I love the Master bathroom and the closet with clothes chute!


We are going to procure bookcases for the Library/Music Room, and that will complete this room.





Downstairs, the Game Room is shaping up, as is our #1 Guest Room.








But our forest-setting guestroom is on hold. That is because the log beds that we got are too BIG! I had been laboring under the illusion that twin beds are 36" wide. The beds that we got, with the big logs, are actually 50" wide. The nice folks at the Rustic Log Furniture store are going to help us out, though, by letting us exchange these for smaller beds. I didn't take photos of the #2 Guest Room full of unassembled logs!


Here is the kitchen:




And here's the dining room:

The Library/Music Room:








Views down the hallways near the front door:







Here's our screened porch:




And some views of the river:











Here's the river deck, and the staircase leading down to the lower deck:





Here's a photo of the ladder that Jack built:

  1. I wonder how many campers you could fit in your house. ;-)

    That is my problem with the RV life style. It is cool and to be out and living out of an RV for a week or two, but it is nice to come back to a nice wide open space that is all yours.

  2. Lovely Janee and about time. You both must be so glad it is coming together. Sorry about the large logs though.

  4. Beautiful home, and your decorating is as good as HGTV. You may not want to return to your cleaning project in Big Rapids...
