THE SPACE
The space is unique and timeless. Each element has been hand-crafted and hand-built by us, or selected with purpose. Intentionally pared-back, the cabin celebrates simplicity and sustainability. Originally built in the 1800's, the historic cabin offers a special charm with all the modern comforts.


**DOWNSTAIRS**

Living/Dining: Reclaimed oak floor with wood stove, (we provide ample wood), table for three, couch area, books, board games and puzzles

Kitchen: A fully equipped kitchen with soapstone countertops complete with gas range and fridge w/ ice maker. Regular coffee maker, Chemex pour over, french press

Bathroom: Hand-built wood vanity and shelves; toilet, sink, shower, HE washer/dryer

**UPSTAIRS** (open loft)

Landing: Antique desk, embroidered chair, twin bed

Bedroom: Queen bed, dresser, TV (no channels) + DVD player & DVD’s.

Stairs: The stairs up to the loft are steep, similar to a ladder. We do not recommend them for anyone with mobility issues. Go slow and you'll be fine!

It's easy to open the windows and listen to the birds, breeze, and the river.


**ON THE GROUNDS**

Backyard Pavilion: Large pavilion with wood-burning stone fireplace, lounge seating, table w/ 4 chairs, charcoal grill

Two additional firepits, an acre of beautiful flower gardens, vegetable garden, hammock, Huff Creek

Wildlife galore; enjoy sightings of deer, fox, turtles, frogs, butterflies, and many birds!

Parking: Plenty of parking on the gravel in front of the house. You'll see our shed/workshop (stays locked). Thanks for staying in the main parking area near the house & gardens.

WIFI:
This is an unplugged getaway without wifi. Most phones will work just, but not for things like streaming.

SUSTAINABILITY:
From waste-free cleaning options to cloth napkins, and a working compost to non-toxic bath products, we strive to be an eco-friendly stay. Our cabin has spring-fed water (and a Brita filter), recycling bins, and waste-free options throughout.

LOCATION:
We promise to resolve unforeseen maintenance issues that may arise as quickly as possible, but ask for your flexibility in understanding the limitations (and advantages!) to this remote location.

Also, please do not be alarmed if you see a bug or two inside the cabin. You're in nature, and as much as our staff does to keep everything clean, we're not able to control every insect.

CLIMATE CONTROL:
The cabin has a ductless AC/heat unit with a remote. The wood stove can provide additional heat in winter.

SMALL GATHERINGS:
Gatherings and small events are welcomed on a case by case basis and include an event fee. Please message us with your request.

LINENS AND TOWELS PROVIDED.
