Writer’s Haven
A treat for those of you who are writers and prefer a little bit of solitude and nature to stir your imagination. This is a writers retreat.
Located on San Juan Island, Washington, the intention was to pull the writer into the solace and hum of nature and leave behind all distraction.
The cabin is glass walled with wooden slats that are raised by a hydraulic system. The slats can be pulled up at night, or raised for security when the occupant is away.
Then there is a 180 degree swivel fireplace that warms you on the shutter deck outside or heats you up cozily on the inside.
The minimalist finish and furnishing is simple and basic to keep you focused on that Pulitzer prize novel or blog! And a wide screen, flat screen, big screen, (I scream), TV set is anathema and deliciously absent in this particular setting.
Sublime.

Wow. What peace. Love how sunlight streams in and makes the place glow. Forgot that
letting in so much sunlight can do that.
It’s all about the light and the environment here isn’t it? And even though it is small you don’t get the feeling of living in a box because of those two elements.

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! I would love this as a place to run away to every now and then! I may or may not even write! It just looks so peaceful. I can imagine a little deer coming to visit every now and then and getting used to me being there and becoming friends! Right. Now back to reality and off to work! Boo!
I’m right there with you (and the deer).

What a fantastic view to have. I wish I had a home like this. This is a lovely little find Pea.
An amazing view indeed. Nature is hard to beat.

My soul smiled when it saw this. This is the epitome of peacefulness and inspiration.
I almost suggested we all go, then I realized it sort of defeated the purpose of solitude (and might scare the deer!).
Thanks again for sharing your calming influence.

Yes, that might defeat the purpose if we all embark there with large suitcases, mobile phones, friends, family and a party atmosphere!
Thanks for visiting!
Pea…I hope you’re starting to feel better. I’m sending you healing energy:~) Take good care of yourself, okay…promise me!

Hah! Your healing energy has worked! I’m back and coming to visit!
Hi Pea,
This place certainly does look very peaceful. Seems like a great place to go inwards, reflect and get some serious writing done.
I love your blog by the way. It’s very visual and creative.
