Retreat Cottage Setting

The Retreat Cottage is a funky old country home, built around 1930 β€” it is not a lace-doily kind of place. Everything is clean, and everything works, but stylistically it is country hodgepodge, and it shows its age in various places. It is the kind of place you can be comfortable bringing your friends, kids, or dogs without walking on tiptoes so as not to disturb anything. If that fits your style, we think you would enjoy it, as well as the beautiful setting next to a whitewater stream. For people who delight in nature, it can be a deeply satisfying place to be.

Retreat Cottage Features

The Retreat Cottage is a two story, two bedroom house with living room, fully-equipped kitchen, dining room, a full bathroom with tub, and washer/dryer. The upstairs bedroom has a queen bed, a twin day bed, and a twin trundle bed. The main floor includes a bedroom with two sets of twin bunk beds. The living room has a queen pull-out sofa, loveseat, satellite TV service, high-speed DSL Internet WiFi, and a telephone with free long distance.

Heat / Insulation

The Retreat Cottage is fully insulated and has propane heat. It also has a wood burning stove/fireplace (firewood available at competitive prices). It has ceiling fans in most rooms, including both bedrooms.
