Constructed using ten different varieties of locally available wood species and completed in 2013, Tenwood Lodge is the dream home of almost empty-nesters Russ and Kim Nitchman (parents of five). Architect designed to optimize views of our unique valley, built with fusion of timber-frame and sheet rock.

Russ is an avid hunter and outdoors-man – as you can see from the collection of taxidermy in our "Trophy Room" living room. Many of our guests feel like they are in a homey museum of local natural history. Even most non-hunters can appreciate the art of the taxidermy. In regards to technology, we intentionally have no TV service (we can use a DVD player) but since June of 2017 we've had high-speed wifi via fiber optic cable. Cell service works well for Verizon and AT&T and most other carriers.
