Starting with Wifey’s bedroom:
Yes, it seems the ultra wealthy prefer separate bedrooms…
And strangely enough, I don’t seem to have any pictures of his room.
Oh, for those of you tuning in, this is the continuing story of our vacation, which included a tour of Boldt Castle in the Thousand Islands, NY.
Hubby (George Boldt) had quite the man-cave, “The Billiard Room”.
Wood inlay on the walls. Chairs for guests with drink-holders carved into the arm rests.
Note the large fish mounted over the fireplace. Even the ceiling was crazy:
The servants didn’t have it too bad:
Kind of an American Downton Abbey.
This was the daughter’s room:
I am sorry, but I love big gaudy curtains.
More of my obsession with the library:
Here’s the kitchen, still in style!
Okay, the stove would be swapped out, but that’s an easy fix.
So there are my highlights of Boldt Castle.
Next blog, I hope to talk about hubby’s fish with a big mouth, a bee sting, and some other vacation events.
Nice place! Everyone needs their own room, regardless of where they sleep!

I had a friend who had her own room; she and her husband made “dates” to get together. It worked for them! Also, what about a snoring spouse– that can send the other to the guest room quick.

We have that same exact bed in our cottage at 1000 Island Park.

Wow. This is incredible! I love the idea of separate bedrooms, though I won’t implement it any time soon. And I lol’d when I read your statement, you love big, gaudy curtains. That tickled me~ thank you for sharing.

Thanks for your comments. I have friends who hate curtains, and HGTV isn’t bug in them, but to me it always meant luxury because I didn’t have them growing up.
