For better or worse, I have a slanted ceiling. On the lower side, I cut a 1" x 4" board slightly bigger than my speaker mounts, painted them, and screwed to the rafters, then screwed the speaker mounts into the board.
For the "high" side, I have some very heavy duty swivel mounts (not sold anymore, for some reason) placed so as to put all height speakers on the same horizontal plane. These are lagged into the 2x4 wall framing.
All those speaker mounts allow for adjustment vertically and horizontally, and all 4 heights are pointed at the MLP. All speakers are enclosed cabinet speakers.

I did not try to fish any speaker wire through the walls, as I did not want to take down/replace any sheetrock, but instead used the largest rectangular cable concealer/raceways I could find, which will fit if you are careful, six 12 gauge stereo speaker wires. The raceways come with "sticky tape" that hold them to the walls, but they also came with drywall inserts and screws I did not use.

The raceways came in white, but are paintable. The kits had connector fittings for 90* turns, straight connectors, "T's" and corners.
 
I assume that's the view from your house? Awesome. My dream home would be out in the country with no neighbors nearby. I always thought my townhouse was my starter home and once I married I get some version of my dream home. But then I never got married... Any female crazy enough to want to marry me was just too damn crazy for me... o_O
:D This moon-rise was Christmas Eve from the back porch, 2015. I wish we were WAY in the sticks too. But not quite.
One day, you just might meet a great gal...just as crazy as you. I did....but we were only 11 when we met.... teenagers when we married. Poor woman.....

The other moon shot (moon-set) was from the front porch, but focused over the top of the next home out in front/right of us some. We are at the end of a dead end dirt road. Between two mountain ranges. Love it!
;)
