The Big Reveal | The Lakehouse | Ep. 9

It’s been two years since Lynda invited our crew for a look at the one-season cottage on a frozen November day. Now, it’s finally time for the tour of her warm and toasty house, decorated and ready to host her family for Christmas.

Wow! Amazing renovation! I love how you modernized the home without taking its souls out. Most designers nowadays would have gutted everything and painted everything white to the point that the home no longer looks the same. You came in and respected the space and let it help you with the design and it paid off! One of the best renovations I’ve seen on this channel. Bravo!

[taylorleeanneking]

Potentially the best cottage design in decades. I’m so incredibly glad you left the wood. The house has so much soul!

[sharonelizabeth]

This was so worth the wait. It’s nice how you and your partner compromised and added your own distinctive touches to this project. I Love the warm and charm of this lake house.

That beautiful old home was in great hands! Enjoyed the whole series - well done!

[kamakauli]

You did such a fantastic job. Keeping all the wood tones was the right move!!! Been waiting for this. You are an inspiration and we love you! Aloha from Hawaii 😘

Lynda I don’t think I have ever seen new design so faithful to it’s origins. What a beautiful job!

[rneustel]

How beautiful—it really blows me away! This type lake house where family and friends visited often, but was also comfortable for the owners alone, has always been a favorite of mine. You kept it true to the original but with your own personalities, too. Love seeing Archie and those expressive eyes!
