Possibly teak or cedar. The stain has a lot to do with that look. Cedar is considerably more expensive than your typical lumber, but teak could be 10-fold.

Could be Doug-Fir as well. You can find both Doug-Fir and Redwood in bigger timbers, but it's usually a special order in this part of the country. It's super common out west though.
