In fall, you can see the beautiful fall colors just in front yard or go to the walking trails beside the cottage.

Other things to note:

Two cameras are installed for safety reasons. One in the back yard and the other one in the front yard.
Please stay away from and do not park under the large tree near the parking lot as there may be falling branches which could hurt people or vehicles especially on heavy windy days. We have placed some woods to block parking and walking there.

Very relaxing getaway from the city
We all wanted a break from our busy lives and this was a great place to stay. The property had ample parking. The rooms were comfy and with the extra bed linens made it very cozy. There was a dishwasher, ice machine, and laundry machines which were unexpected but very grateful to have. Both AC and heating options available. Everyone had a great time!
