The Granite Ridge Lodges stand at the forested base of the ski mountain, just steps from Teton Village, the slopes, the hiking trails and the Four Seasons. Granite Ridge Lodge 3209 is a classic of its kind – a lofty, contemporary four-bedroom house with three levels; neighbors to either side and the quiet green rise of the woods behind.

The great room, a half flight up from the front door, is the heart of the house, handsome and welcoming; it is the central living and dining space where windows on three sides allow the eye to soar up to the top of the ski mountain, down through the village and out into the dusky pine forest behind the house. A robust, stone, wood-burning fireplace anchors the space, facing a quartet of leather and cowhide sofas, chair and ottoman. To the right of the fireplace is a small, built-in bar with an under counter refrigerator and a small sink; while to the left, a cabinet hides the TV. The great room is flooded with clear light during the day and flickers with golden firelight in the evening. French doors open to the terrace and hot tub, and the woods.

The kitchen is in a wide alcove just off of the dining area. Sunny and efficient, the kitchen has lots of stone-topped counter space, a center island with a prep sink, a breakfast/sandwich bar that can seat five, and a small step-in pantry. Wine storage is built into the natural wood cabinets; overhead, dark wood beams cross the smooth white ceiling. The dining table, overhung by an antler chandelier, stands before a vast picture window, which frames the lively village and the slopes. At night, drapes may be pulled across for privacy.
