You couldn’t wish to find a more homely and inviting place to stay as this stunning and unique detached wooden house.
The property is approached via a short path surrounded by grass, which leads you to the porch area which features seating and the home’s distinctive red front door.
Before you enter, why not take in the splendor of what’s around you, from the mountains in the distance to the flowers and plants that decorate the house, giving it a really homely feel. And it’s a theme that’s continued inside.
The front door opens onto a big open plan living area. The first thing you’ll probably notice is the brightness and spaciousness of the place, thanks to its clean white walls, the combination of windows and a sky light, and the high ceilings.
The stairs are immediately on your left, but more about what’s up there shortly. First, let’s enjoy what’s down here because there’s plenty. Starting with the couch and coffee table that face the wall mounted widescreen TV. A great place to relax after a long day’s hiking or fishing in the sun.
Across the room there’s a classic wooden dining table that seats four. Where better to get together and enjoy the meals you create in the kitchen? It’s fully equipped with everything you need for the times you decide not to eat out or use the BBQ, and for when you need to clean and dry your clothes following a hike or fishing trip.
A huge fridge freezer provides plenty of storage space for anything you’ve been lucky (or skillful) enough to catch in the lakes, and for things you buy in the local stores. Two barstools provide a small seating area for two in the kitchen, ideal for grabbing a quick snack or coffee before another busy day. And there’s a door from the kitchen that leads out onto a decking area where you’ll discover the BBQ set, and the garden beyond.
Also downstairs, accessed through a door under the staircase is the master bedroom that features a comfortable Memory foam Queen bed with plenty of closet space to store your things. There’s another flat screen TV in here on top of one of the closets, ideal for some early morning or late night super-relaxed viewing in bed. The room has the added bonus of an ensuite that is modern and comfortable, featuring a bath with shower over, a Jacuzzi and washbasin.
Now to the upstairs, where you’ll find the second bedroom which features a Queen bed and plenty of storage space. There’s also a second, smaller washroom up here. But perhaps the best and most surprising feature is another open social space that contains a couch facing another wall mounted widescreen TV, and double doors that open out onto a large wooden balcony. Wait until you get out here and see just how great a vantage point this is from which to enjoy the stunning scenery, highlighted by Mountains!

THE NEIGHBORHOOD
The house is situated in secluded and stunning surroundings that will afford you relaxing and inspiring views of epic mountains and woodland (so bring your paints if you love painting landscapes).
Stay here and you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to natural beauty - what a welcome contrast the pace of life around here will make compared to day-to-day life in a city.
Be sure to pack your walking boots and get ready to go on hikes that start from your doorstep (or bring your bikes). Don’t forget your fishing rods as well, because there are lakes rich with trout within 100 yards of the front door.
If you’re looking for entertainment, you’ll find it in the area’s live music venues, bars and restaurants which include Meers, the self-proclaimed home of the best burgers in Oklahoma, situated in a former gold mining town that’s now all but deserted!
One nearby town that’s still inhabited is Medicine Park, a cobblestone town full of quaint shops, restaurants and naturally occurring red rocks. Its beauty attracts tourists all year round. Also nearby are the Wichita Mountain Wildlife Refuge, gorgeous mountain views and great dining at iconic Oklahoma restaurants like Meers Restaurant & The Plantation.
GETTING AROUND
Most people who stay in the area are content to explore it on foot or by bike, as there are many trails to explore. The house is located within easy reach of the lakes and local town, but because there’s plenty of parking space outside, getting around by car is also a good option.
