PEIL WINTER2020

A handmade rack for hanging clothing has hooks made of pieces of birch branches found on the property.

Up the stairs from the living room to the loft is the cabin’s cozy sleeping area. A skylight above the bed lights up the room during daylight hours, and at night one can either look up at the stars or use the blackout shade for complete darkness. The headboard is handmade of birch logs and equipped with simple reading lights. A built-in dresser under the eaves maximizes the small room’s storage.

A separate bathhouse is mere steps away from the main cabin. The delightful bathroom is clad in pine, has a vaulted ceiling, a dramatic wood chandelier and a closet with a washer-dryer combination. Under a pergola covered in vines is a unique outdoor shower for those who dare to go au-naturel. The star of the bathhouse is a clawfoot tub that Hickox was lucky enough to find by the side of the road and had refinished. With its location in front of a beautiful arched window, one can only imagine the pleasure of a long soak while admiring the natural landscape outside.

Thank you to Stuart Hickox for sharing your cabin with us.
