Riss Lake's architectural character—from waterfront cottages to substantial estate homes—demands window treatments that enhance curb appeal while performing year-round. Faux wood blinds excel here for three reasons: First, lakeside humidity and seasonal temperature swings that challenge real wood are no problem for moisture-resistant PVC composite. Second, the community's mix of traditional and contemporary styles means faux wood's versatility works everywhere. Third, these blinds maintain their finish through Riss Lake's weather patterns without the warping, swelling, or paint peeling that sometimes affects real wood in high-moisture areas. Many Riss Lake homeowners also appreciate the easy maintenance—a quick wipe removes dust and pollen without special treatments required by real wood blinds.
