Sited on the last of a rare chain of mountain ponds, architect Robert Skinner’s personal retreat in the San Jacinto Mountains near Idyllwild exudes peace and serenity. With a pitched roof, and rugged massing more suitable to its environment than the architect’s more familiar post & beam style architecture and nature harmonize. The open plan loft style interiors overlook the pond & surrounding 7 acre site, and incorporate a living room with fireplace & built-ins, dining area, quality kitchen, 2 upper bedrooms, 2 baths, and a work space which doubles as an additional sleeping area. Whether enjoying Winter snows, Spring wildflowers, Summer swimming, or Autumn hiking and riding, rest and recuperation begin here.
