Cottage Layout & Features
Screened-in Porch Perfect for Relaxing
Rain or shine, this will be your favorite place to hang out. The sectional sofa is just right for napping and relaxing; a large table and plenty of chairs are the perfect space for dining, playing cards or games, or – if you must – working on your computer (you’ll be amazed at how productive you’ll be!)
Warm and Inviting Living Spaces
Ready to relax? Stream a movie on the Roku TV or play a movie from our video library, or go “no-tech” and read one of our book offerings or play a game or puzzle. Ready to cook? The fully appointed kitchen offers a generous array of appliances, utensils, dinnerware, and cookware for use during your stay. Ready to rest? Two small bedrooms with double beds and a simple but updated bathroom round out the cottage.
