Built in 1938, Alpine Hut is a one-bedroom, two-bath cottage set along the road leading to the lake, offering a secluded retreat apart from the main cluster of cottages. Nestled within a wooded area about two-thirds of the way down the steep hill to the water, it provides a peaceful and private setting, perfect for artists seeking quiet inspiration.
While Alpine Hut has a more modest sleeping capacity than some of the other cottages, it features generous common living space and large picture windows that frame stunning views of the lake.
The kitchen and dining areas are located on a lower level, connected to the airy upper-level living room and workspace by a staircase, creating a multi-level layout that enhances the sense of openness.
Architecturally, Alpine Hut maintains harmony with the rest of Hewnoaks through its Arts-and-Crafts-inspired details, including a stone chimney and exposed rafter tails.
The cottage also boasts a good-sized private outdoor space, making it an inviting spot for reflection, creative work, or simply enjoying the natural surroundings.
