Captain Kurt’s fish cleaning station is situated near the deck. You
can watch him skillfully fillet your day’s catch and perhaps get a
good look at a hungry bald eagle in search of rockfish carcasses.
Our boat launch is used to deploy small skiffs and kayaks into Big
Salt Lake; a fun place to explore, enjoy the scenery, and look for
wildlife.
Just across the boat launch is Trina’s Pyromania Activity Center.
Custom built stainless steel panels by Tom Ford of Untamed Design,
LLC in Gillette, Wyoming and assisted by her brother Tri, the 6’
diameter fire pit is a functional work of art. From bonfires to
s’mores (and sometimes fireworks) this is a comfy area to swap fish
tales at the end of a fun day.
In the Attached Garage you will find two mini-fridges for your adult
beverages, as well as recycling bins for aluminum cans only. Our
fish processing station includes a state of the art Multi-Vac vacuum
sealer, two large chest freezers and one upright freezer for
professional care of your fresh catch.
In the Summertime our yard is bursting with blueberries,
huckleberries and salmonberries which Trina uses in many recipes and
you are welcome to pick as well. Our yard also hosts Rufous
hummingbirds, Winter wrens, Varied Thrushes, Robins, Ravens, Bald
eagles, Sitka black-tailed deer, and a very well-fed mink. Our lake
is home to Harbor seals, dungeness crab, migrating salmon, Red
breasted, Common, and Hooded mergansers, Common loons, Canada geese,
Belted kingfishers, Marbled murrelets, an occasional sea otter, and
even more rarely, transient killer whales!
Beyond the yard, you can stretch your legs for a quick 1/2 mile walk
to the end of the road where you can see the “salt chuck” our road
is named for (one of the two narrow entrance/exit points for water
as the the tides change). A few offshoot logging roads nearby offer
pretty views and berry-picking.
