The Forest Escape: a newly renovated basement apartment nestled in the woods
Escape to this freshly renovated basement apartment nestled in the woods—where natural light pours in and the views are simply breathtaking. Though located on the lower level, this walkout space feels anything but dark, thanks to large windows that frame the surrounding forest and bring the outdoors in.

Whether you're here for a quiet weekend away, a longer work-from-nature retreat, or just passing through, you’ll appreciate the modern comforts, peaceful setting, and easy access to nearby trails and towns.
Best of all, there are no checkout chores—just pack up and head out when you're ready.
