Vacation with Parents

It was wonderful!! We had such a nice stay and easy for my parents. My mother is legally blind and my father uses a walker. They were able to maneuver easily and appreciated the layout. My husband and I stayed in the guest house out back which offered us the opportunity to get a little peace and quiet ourselves. We can’t wait to come back!

Cozy, quiet cabin on the brow

We enjoyed staying in this clean, 1920s cabin and loved the amenities. Our adult son stayed in the equally nice guest house. There were games, books, and lots of quirky art pieces while the home was decorated tastefully. The kitchen was great for family meals. The view is the best part. In the early mornings we saw a whiteout of clouds gradually clearing into a gorgeous green vista in the valley. Second to that was the quiet neighborhood.

Peace and quiet in the clouds

Came to this area on a mountain bike trip. When we pulled up, we were in awe. The home literally is on the edge of a cliff with the most beautiful view of valley below. Was happy sitting on large deck and doing nothing but enjoying the view. Will return.

Just the stay we needed

This was a most relaxing spot. The views were incredible and the naps in the hammock were chef’s kiss perfection. We enjoyed tooling around Sloppy Floyd State Park, and just hanging out at the cottage to curl up with a book on the Sun porch. All in all, a wonderful Father’s Day getaway.
