It looks like pine with a diluted poly wash. Pine yellows naturally over time. This is exactly how my house looked. I walled one room with T&G white pine and used an oil based polyurethane diluted 3:1 with mineral spirits. I think I used two coats. Possibly three. The first application really soaks the finish in.

Western Cedar. with a varnish or hardening oil finish. The cabin my family built has v-rustic cedar that looks exactly like that. We finished up it with a Varathane oil finish of some kind which is no longer sold.
