This place caught our eyes while walking around Radium town. From the outside, you will really get curious to what's inside. Luckily, it was Saturday the following day so we were able to visit. Rolf (owner's name) opens it to the public for a tour of his house during Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I didn't like the smell that welcomed me when I walked in. It was a very smokey smell. He had a burner that also looks like a fire place. He was dressed like a wizard. It was odd and very cool at the same time. My artist husband liked the place. You could see a lot of cool wood carvings and vintage things. The structure of the house was also cool. The giant wood carvings were fun to look at. It was a great visit. It's recommended for sure when you are ever in Radium.
Very interesting folk artist. If you're in the area I highly recommend checking it out. His art mostly consists of wood carving of faces. There's a bit of a wizard there. The whole place is rather unique and there are a few surprises. Many of the carvings are for sale. So if you would like a souvenir just ask.
Literally a house of a thousand wooden face carvings. Very cool! We got to take one home, very reasonably priced. The wizard who lives there is so cool and nice, chat with him. Very cheap to get in. He built the entire place himself! You can also feed his goats some saltine crackers
Very cool place! So much character! Rolf the artist is an interesting and friendly guy. His woodworking is amazing. Each piece is so cool and each face looks like it "magically emerged" from the wood, as opposed to it looking intentionally carved. He has all sorts of pieces for sale, starting from around only $20. Even if you don't want to buy it is certainly worth stopping by for a browse. (Special rates for ladies accompanied by billygoats). Check it out - you won't be disappointed.
We have been every year for the past five years. My kids love to feed to roof top goats, they look forward to it! They also have a blast with the trick doors in the back. We've purchased two of his pieces, and love them. I call one "the north wind". It's not a place for everyone, but if you like to make quirky stops, then this is the place for you. Remember, this is his home as well, not just a store front, which to me is what makes it even more intriguing. While your in town make a trip of it by stopping at the hot springs. They have the best view of them all.
