One of the boards does look like cedar however the rest look like white pine to me. One of my sons has that in their home and they stained it in the living room, kitchen, bathrooms, and hall ways. the bedrooms are carpet. Their is stain a dark walnut color. I have seen a few other houses around this area with this as well. After you do it if you don't like it you can always put carpet back over it.
That "one" board is the giveaway, I would say cedar as well. There does seem to be water stains as well so that has to be addressed as well as sanding. You will be able to stain any tone. Best thing is to get a piece of cedar that is similar in tone and appearance and sample a few colors first. When staining wood it is best to actually see it on wood and not rely on a color chart.
