A clean guest is a happy guest - or something like that!

What a treat to work with on this little collaboration.

Experience a little something extra. Farm fresh eggs welcome you for breakfast as well as a new addition and we would love your feedback on this one.
We are including a faraday bag in each cottage. While we have pretty excellent Wi-Fi, we don't tend to thank people come here for that.
Slip your phones in the bag and seal up the velcro to engage quiet mode. You can thank us later.

Meet Decker. After our older red labrador Sully was given a clean bill of health at 11 years old, we decided it was probably the last fair window of time to bring a puppy into our home. This puppy has brightened our days, and probably ​added years to Sully's life.
He is settling in so well at 12 or so weeks. He's been to a basketball tournament and ski event and our cats are also warming to him. Needless to say these are fun filled days with lots of beautiful animal energy.
To our guests, when you see us walking, please come out and say hello. There's nothing quite like the greeting that labradors offer. They offer free snuggles for all, too!
See you soon!
