The home features multiple outdoor living spaces — balconies front and back, a spacious main deck, a backyard oasis with fire pit and hammock, and a front porch with a swing perfect for enjoying morning coffee or our beautiful sunsets. The main deck is also perfect for stargazing on a clear night. We provide blankets for you to bring outside whenever it's cool out.

Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to make a homecooked meal and a coffee station, washing machine and dryer, comfortable beds with quality linens, 2 large smart TVs, dedicated work space and fast WiFi. The game cottage is a fun bonus for families and groups.

Deer families come visit every morning and evening — we provide feed so you can greet them up close. It's the kind of experience guests say they'll never forget.

There is an open lot next to the house that attract lots of wildlife including birds, deer, foxes, etc. They are very docile and accustomed to friendly visitors. However, they are wild animals so please use caution. The lot is not part of our property, so please be respectful to our neighbors. If you are travelling without little ones or dogs feel free to open the gate to let the deer in and out of our yard.
