From the vacation rental site: “Where else can you whale watch from within a luxurious sitting room, with a wood-burning stove crackling in the corner? With a stay at Wood H, you are at once immersed in the vast natural offerings of the Isle of Skye, while safely secluded in contemporary style and comfort. Tranquil yet dramatic, on land yet at sea, remote yet connected, Wood H weaves disparate elements together to create a richly dynamic tapestry unlike any other.”

From the architect: “The owners envisioned a family oasis that could be restful and serene yet open and welcoming, and capable of entertaining large gatherings. They envisioned an environment that blended interior and exterior, seamlessly integrated into its stunning surroundings. The interior and exterior are connected by operable glass hanger doors which frame vistas of the lake, landscaping, beach, and distant architecture.”
3. Suns End Retreat
The material palette of Suns End Retreat includes Douglas fir that wraps the floors, walls, and ceiling. Wheeler Kearns Architects say the home’s “calm, natural earth tones read quietly in concert with the natural surroundings.”
