Siding Poll: UPDATED WITH HOUSE PIC!

The house is a colonial style house. We will have white trim around the windows. We are going with the shake style siding on all sides of the house. We will also have some stone work in a stone veneer from Eldorado Stone called Amber falls. Here is the link I can't get the photo to work:

We are at a loss as to which color to choose and they are going to start siding this up coming week! All colors are in stock.

UPDATE: March 15

Here is the back of the house. We really love the way it is coming out!

Re: Siding Poll

I voted for Savannah Wicker... from the pic it seems like a greenish-gray? I love that type of color.

Re: Siding Poll

Granite gray with white trim will look very nice.

We have a few houses around use with those colors and it looks very sharp.

Re: Siding Poll

I think the Savannah Wicker color looks a little washed out. I like the Granite Grey.

Thanks for the replies! This is so hard. We have hung up all 4 pieces of siding on the house to get an idea. I am going to try and see if a photo would come out good enough to give you a better idea!

I agree. I also think that it will look good with the stone. It seems to be a similar gray to the gray in the shutters on the pick they show of the Amber falls stone on the Eldorado website.

The middle two colors are too light. I think you need a contrast from the white & the light stone.

The last one is nice, might be too green or too light for the stone, but is my 2nd choice.

Great to know!!

This confirms that we have picked GRANITE GRAY based on this poll and friends/family that drove by the house this week!! I am so excited to have finally made this decision.
