About this property

McLay House was originally a hunting lodge; built around 1895, it was surrounded by cottages to accommodate hunters, who would come to the main house "lodge" for their meals.
This home is a beautiful example of the Craftsman style: solid 24” original Douglas fir paneling, high ceilings and so much of the original character throughout. Electric and plumbing have been updated but the original floor plan remains.
This house is stunning and we are blessed to live here!
