Kitchen
Remember that thing we said about being “stuck in the kitchen”? Well, this kitchen is one you wouldn’t mind getting stuck in! We aren’t exaggerating when we say the kitchen is HUGE. There is plenty of room to cook for a big group, or even WITH a big group! There is a large island, oodles of counter and cabinet space and a convenient pantry. Appliances include a stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and, two refrigerators (we hate running out of fridge space!). The kitchen is fully stocked with place settings for
20, utensils, mixing bowls, storage bowls, toasters, etc.



The kitchen is large ... like really big with lots of cabinets. This map will help orient you where to find and where to put things back.

Gathering Spaces
The key to a comfortable, relaxing retreat is having spaces large enough for everyone to gather together and connect. We have them! Our great room, library, kitchen, dining room, and backyard are bright, open-concept, and easily flow into one another which we think goes a long way to prevent anyone from feeling excluded because they were “stuck in the kitchen.”

Dining Room
The Dining Room has two large custom stainless-steel tables with seating for 20, plus extra seating for 6 at the bar if needed. When they are not being dined on, these tables are super versatile and can be used as an additional spot for prep work, an extra-large workspace, or just sitting around and chatting.
Great Room
The great room has two large, really comfortable sectional sofas, a gas fireplace, and a large smart
television with a great sound system. The sofas can be rearranged to accommodate any group discussions or fireside chats. The floor has radiant heating which is perfectly cozy when it is chilly outside.







Library
We had such fun with the library! We filled it with lots of books and movies we love and some we think you might love too. We also included lots of games and puzzles and added a cute little game table that a few can gather around for a card or a board game.
Backyard
The Wise Raven Retreat is located on a pretty 3-acre wooded lot. There is a large, fenced back lawn with a fire-pit, hot tub, hammock hooks, and a grill. The patio has 2 large tables and plenty of chairs for those who would like to eat a meal outside, sit around a campfire, or even just sit outside and enjoy the beauty, peace, and quiet of the Alaskan day or night.
