It is a cozy 1,450 sq ft, 3 bed/2 bath, having a 1,000 sq ft wrap around, covered porch, with a huge hot tub, a full kitchen, spacious living area, relaxing outdoor spaces, and specifically designed to allow you to unplug - rain or shine.The Cottage:We wanted to create a special place where you could escape from the world for a few days of quiet relaxation - both for our family to use and to be able to share that experience with others.With this in mind, we purposely chose not to have a TV in the living room. Our goal is to provide a true retreat for guests who want to unplug and unwind. However, there are TVs in the bedrooms with king beds, and one on the covered porch.Provided is a peaceful, quiet space set on 7 acres, where you can get lost in a book in one of our many cozy reading nooks, enjoy time playing board games, and building puzzles, relax in our spacious hot tub, eat dinner at the large table on the porch, or just listen to the sounds of the creek and nature.- Property Highlights:* SLEEP WELL - All bedrooms have a DreamCloud mattress, with luxury bedding.
