The master bedroom suite comprises the entire loft; it is an area Jerry calls "my favorite part of the house." Dormer windows at the top of the log staircase and in the master bathroom combine with oversized windows in the bedroom to provide an abundance of natural light and an unobstructed view of the outdoors.

"The guest house can accommodate up to 10 people, if necessary, by taking advantage of the sleeper couch in the family room and a daybed in the master bedroom," Jerry says. "With the available room in both houses, it is not unusual for us to have up to 20 guests at a time."

Carpeted floors in the bedrooms offer comfort on cool Wyoming mornings. Jerry and Jorja selected tile for the rest of the main floor because "it is not as noisy as hardwood floors and requires less maintenance than carpet." The Allens did not want their guests to worry about wiping their feet after a day of fishing or other outdoor activities.

Jerry and Jorja are proud of the bathroom tiles which are inlaid with intricate trout designs. Rough pine planking on the bathroom walls and ceilings offers a pleasant contrast to the smoother pine cabinets.

To break up the home's full log construction, the Allens opted for stick framing and drywall behind the kitchen cabinets. Tongue and groove pine ceilings add the textural variation Jerry and Jorja sought to create in the cabin.
