Hunting Lodge

South Carolina

This rustic hunting retreat in South Carolina is situated on private property overlooking a small lake with seasonal waterfowl and wild game roaming nearby.  In keeping with the architect’s inspiration to make the building seem like an 18th century dogtrot-inspired lodge, we created interiors that would rival the thrill of the hunt. We infused aspects of the retreat with a masculine but moody flair, with details like an antique French rifle rack transformed into a vanity, a shotgun shell trim on the zinc-topped kitchen island, and reclaimed river-recovered sinker cypress throughout. Elegant touches offset the feeling of a purely masculine space. Eleven custom bunk beds upstairs accommodate extended family and visiting friends, while the large recreation area offers a playful space for billiards or cards after a long day of hunting. Outdoors, everyone can kick back on the porch by the fire and swap the day’s stories.
