However, the majority of homes display a kind of minimal-rustic aesthetic. For some, the rustic theme is not so minimal, with exterior elevations in log and river stone. In most cases, the property sizes are large, featuring access to the gentle, sandy shores of one of the surrounding lakes.
Interiors make extensive use of knotty, raw-looking wood finishes and details. Bare roof beams complete the tall, cathedral ceilings accented by towering fireplaces in traditional brick or stone. These rooms offer the perfect spaces to relax after a hard day's fishing, or to socialize with friends and family.
Entertainment is also easy with these homes. Guest rooms are common features, as are kitchen islands with breakfast bars, and flex rooms for games and entertainment. Make use of the large properties, wrap-around porches, docks and firepits for added fun in the summer. These spaces are great for barbecues or drinks as you watch the sun go down.
You can really enjoy the quiet scenery of these properties through the large windows. On many mid to-large sized properties these extend beyond the first story, flanking fireplaces and deck-entries.
