Sunday, October 2, 2011 at 5:59PM While we were staying at the Penfield House, I found a magazine that featured the Penfield House ... and 3 other properties that were FLW designed and also available as rentals! We will probably attempt to stay at the other properties in the future.
All of these properties have a booking requirement of a minimum 2 night stay.
Thursday, September 29, 2011 at 10:37AM Yes, we realize this is loooooong overdue, sometimes life keeps you busy though. We had a great time staying at the Penfield House. It was somewhat surreal to have a Frank Lloyd Wright designed house all to ourselves for a few days. You can't help but relax while you're there. The house is situated in a very quiet part of Ohio without any nearby distractions and the design of the house really promotes that state of relaxation. The huge floor to ceiling windows running the entire length of the house blur the lines between being inside and outside.
Other than the relaxation, we did spend a fair bit of time photographing the house and property. Here are a few of my shots.
Monday, September 5, 2011 at 12:49AM Last year we rode to Bar Harbour for Labour Day weekend. This year we've chosen a different destination. Quite by chance, I found out from a friend of ours that we could actually rent a Frank Lloyd Wright designed and built house. Wow! Since Matt is a huge fan of FLW, how could we pass on such an opportunity?
We reserved the house and rented a car. We figured that since this would be a mostly photographic experience, it would be easier to just haul all of our equipment in a car instead of on our bikes. Unfortunately, we won't have internet access during the duration of our stay.
I guess you'll just have to wait and see after we return home!
