Bunk House
Soon after their arrival, around 1910, Al built a garage, with a portion in the back set aside for a “bunkhouse” for a hired man. Today, the single-walled redwood garage remains in front, with the bunkhouse in back (front and back Chester’s), all with the original metal roofing. In the 1970s, remodeling began. It has continued over the years, for staff, for family, for friends….. and now for guests.
Located near the Farmhouse, the incarnation presently has a covered deck in front, looking west over the chicken house field and nightly sunsets, an outdoor cooking/eating area, kitchen, dining room, four bedrooms (each with a queen bed), two bathrooms, and a back deck above the river with a stairway to the upper bedroom. For warmth, it has a wood stove. Outside, a fire circle for appropriate times of the year.
