Black Fox Classics: Hosting Hacks

With lake season around the corner, so is the busiest time of the year for hosting friends and family at the cabin. There are many ways to accommodate last-minute overnighters, but these are a few of our favourites.

Black Fox Classics: Spring Landscaping

It's getting warmer on Lake of the Woods, and soon it'll be time to leave the indoors behind. When you do, it's essential to make sure your lot is primed to be your new favorite hangout spot. One affordable (and indispensable) addition to any Lake of the Woods home is a dead simple lakeside fire pit.

For your dollar, a fire pit may be one of the best investments you can make in your cabin. With a little bit of landscaping work, you can transform an empty corner of your lot into one of the most popular spots on your property.
 

 
This particular fire pit also works double duty, turning some uneven terrain into a landing on the way down to the waterline. This formerly ignored patch of land is now the perfect place to hang out by the fire with a drink and take in the lake.

Black Fox Classics: Open Concept Kitchen

We've spoken recently about open concept designs, and nowhere is it more important to embrace this airy, accessible approach than in the heart of the house itself - the kitchen.

Design Diary: First Impressions

Even though they seem clean and sometimes even simple when well done, the design decisions that need to be made in every home can be limitless.  Thanks to Lisa Clark Designs, we have a sneak peak at how the foyer and mud room in one of our upcoming cabins on Lake of the Woods came together to help form the cabin's first stunning impressions.

Black Fox Classics: Kitchen Countertops

When it comes to designing a high end kitchen, a beautiful, one-of-a-kind stone countertop is almost always near the top of a client's wish list. While granite may be the most luxurious option, quartz acts as an affordable alternative.

Tastes may change over time, but an open concept floor plan is still the best way to bring every space, and even more so every person, in your cabin together.

The amount of life-changing technology in a given cabin is growing every single day. Though a high tech summer home may not be everyone's idea of the perfect retreat, the current offerings in smart home security are just as much about piece of mind as they are about modern luxuries.
