The grand fireplace takes center stage in the spacious two-story great room.
Three decks in the front and back of this simple mountain lodge offer plenty of opportunity for taking in the crisp alpine air.


I was browsing through the lots and houses bin on the The Sims 3 wiki recently and thought I might recreate something in The Sims 2 again. My choice fell on to the Doubleday Lodge, yet another mountain lodge in a similiar style to Miramontes, only much smaller in size. I didn't recreate everything down to every pixel because I didn't want to. Modernization plays a rather minor role this time and I've tried to keep the original layout of the rooms and walls with only a few edits. As you can tell from the screenshots, I went for a brighter color palette this time and I really hope it fits the build style well. Please let me know in the comments what you think about it.

The entire house has been built without the usage of any custom content, yet items of several expansion- and stuff packs have been used. I own the The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection and I highly recommend to only download this lot if you own it aswell. I cannot guarantee full functionality for users without the The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection.
This lot has never been occupied, but tested for full functionality on a seperate instance. Sims will sometimes choose stupid pathways to get from A to B, but this is really only a rare and random occurance and due to the layout of the second floor. I won't count this as a bug, since the original designer of this home decided to create it that way and so there are no bugs this time at all.

This is my second work to be published and I'm open for any kind of feedback and criticism, as long as it remains polite and constructive. If you find any issues, please let me know and I will see what can be done as soon as possible.

To follow my personal trend of adding incredible amounts of preview images to my submissions, I present to you some footage of the manor's overall appearance.
