Don’t worry, as you get older you’ll develop some taste. (ok, settle down, just kidding, crimmy some people are so touchy)
Actually, as a wood worker, I have to say that many woods develop more beauty as they age. The grain patterns become more pronounced and the finish takes on a beautify patina.

When I go to mountain resort areas, I always dread the chalet type accommodations where everything is wood with brown carpet. I don’t care how much they costs (some places in the millions) but those places are just uninviting to me.
I don’t see the attraction of log houses in Wyoming and such.
Give me a modern concrete house with bay windows any day.[/quote]
There are some bad cliche A-Frame resort places out there for sure. Houses that are wood-everything don’t float my boat unless it’s maybe in Big Bear for a few days. But, IMO, it’s hard to beat an attractive, well-designed post and beam look. I get excited when I see them on places on SDLookup, in places like Mission Hills or Hidden Meadows. I lived in a place in Fallbrook with wood beams in each room and I miss it. Each room had a different color scheme, so I had cherry red beams in the entrance, blue beams in my room and dark chocolate beams most everywhere else.
Then again, I like modern styles, too. It’s good to have a broad palette.
