“What makes The Lodge so special is that it encapsulates a time and place gone by.” Carter’s New Hampshire living space is rife with things that speak to his past and bring him joy—from heirloom antiques to his collections of vintage rolling pins and yellowware (Carter’s ardor predates Martha Stewart’s).
