Cozy Lake Stay | King, Wood Stove + Fenced Yard

STILLHOUSE AT MARTHA LAKE

Stillhouse at Martha Lake is the kind of place that changes the pace of a weekend. Just blocks from the water and tucked against a private greenbelt, this mid-century woodland home is filled with skylight, warm wood, and quiet views into the trees. It gives groups room to gather, room to spread out, and a peaceful base for exploring the North Sound.

THE HEART OF THE HOME

Skylights carry daylight over the vaulted ceiling and exposed beams, while hand-scraped hardwood floors and layered textiles bring warmth below. The large sectional gives everyone a comfortable place to land for a movie, a rainy afternoon, or an easy evening after time outside.

At the center of the open kitchen and dining area, the wood-burning stove brings the room together. Its glow warms breakfasts beneath the skylights, conversations around the table, and dinners that stretch comfortably into the evening.

CHEFS KITCHEN AND DINING

The kitchen combines cottage character with practical cooking space. Beadboard cabinetry, stone tile counters, a backyard-facing sink, and a 6-burner stainless steel stove support everything from quick breakfasts to a full shared meal. The kitchen also includes an oven, microwave, dishwasher, full-size refrigerator, coffee maker, kettle, toaster, cookware, dishes, baking sheet, wine glasses, and cooking basics.

The dining table seats six beneath the beams and skylights. It is equally suited to dinner, games, trip planning, or an afternoon work session.
