O atrakciji

Brze činjenice: Spustite se strmom, vijugavom stazom i stići ćete do skandinavske vile na obali jezera sa 38 soba, sa ručno rezbarenim gredama i malim, udobnim uglovima. Lora Knight je opremila mnoge sobe uvezenim nordijskim tekstilom i lokalnim kamenom, dajući svakom prostoru topao, kolibski miris bora i lanenog ulja.

Istaknuto: Uđite unutra i vaš pogled hvata masivno granitno ognjište i zamršene drvoreznice, koje je Lora Knight insistirala da se izrade tradicionalnim skandinavskim metodama. Većina posetilaca primećuje da blizina jezera ispunjava sobe slabim slanim mirisom, odjekom talasa i svetlošću koja čini da rezbareni čvorovi sijaju kao nešto iz kolibe pored fjorda.

Insajderski saveti

Wear sturdy shoes, the 1-mile trail down is steep and can be slippery on granite steps.
Arrive before 9am to beat the parking rush and get unobstructed photos of the house from the shore.
Bring layers, winds off the lake can be chilly even on warm days.
Skip the steep interior if mobility is limited, instead enjoy the shoreline viewpoints and Eagle Falls trail.
