Arts and Crafts Wyoming, Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

It's not exactly a Frank Lloyd Wright home but it is definitely inspired by the legendary architect. This home near Jackson, Wyoming was custom built for someone who definitely has a taste for the Arts and Crafts style. The woodwork here is stunning, especially the chandelier in the dining room. If you aren't a fan of this style it can all be a bit much but the overall theme is very consistent and rather restful. The four-bedroom home has an exterior of pressed brick, elaborate cornices, and wrap-around terraces. It sits on 5.37 acres and is listed at $11.4 million.

Jackson Modern, Estate of the Day

by Deidre Woollard (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Estates

This might be my favorite Jackson, Wyoming home yet. It's a great modern riff on the log cabin. Glass and wood dominate the contemporary home which sits on five acres atop gated North Gros Ventre Butte. The home's large glass windows offer gorgeous mountain views. The beige-on-beige color scheme isn't the most thrilling I have seen but the spare design means that you can bring your modern furniture to your Wyoming home and it won't look horribly out of place. This home is listed at $7.25 million.

Ellen Creek, Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

I keep checking out estates in Teton Village, Wyoming because they keep building new beautiful resort homes. This one might be the best one I have seen in the region so far. Not only does it sit on 2.45 acres and offer easy access to the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort but this one embraces Western architecture without going cowboy crazy. This five-bedroom home is lavish in the way that homes in the area often are but the use of reclaimed siding and timbers and a restrained sense of elegance make this home seem more inhabitable than some I've seen. All the resort amenities are here including a formal dining room, fitness area, home theater, library and a steam room yet despite the fact that it is 7,000 square feet it seems cozy. So much coziness costs though, this home is listed at $15.65 million. Pics after the jump or larger in the gallery.

Wolf and Bear Safari

Filed under: Luxury Travel & Hotels

I say the word safari and you may immediately be thinking Africa but you can actually experience a safari a bit closer to home. No lions and tigers in sight but you may get to see some bears. Spring Creek Ranch in Wyoming, a resort that combines luxury with rugged Western flair, is offering their annual "Wolf & Bear Safari Weekend" during select dates in April, May and June. The three night package includes journeys that take guests through Yellowstone National Park to watch large predators and other wildlife in their natural habitat. Tours include high powered binoculars and the help of professional biologists. The package costs $1350 per person double occupancy and includes safari transportation, lodging, meals and snacks. If you are looking to sleep until noon however, this isn't the package for you, one of the observation trips starts with a pre-dawn breakfast on Saturday morning followed by a morning search for predators.

I've written about stone bathtubs before but you don't often see them in houses because of the weight and expense. It takes a special house to pull off that look.
