My biography title: Making the Best of each Worst Moment

For guests, I always...Strive to make your stay what you are looking for

When not hosting, I might ….work on my music, head out for live music, hike, swim, or search for the most amazing oyster – more of a challenge in Arizona than Virginia! After years working in education and music in Chicago, it is exciting to do something new! Thanks for being our guests - we’re thrilled to have you!

Check out this recent review for my Downtown Flagstaff Retreat- book Fall and Winter now for the best dates!

"We LOVED this place! We will always be checking for this place to be available anytime we come back to Flagstaff. It was so beautifully and thoughtfully decorated, clean, cute, comfortable and worth every penny! We also loved being in walking distance to coffee and breweries and all the food options. Despite being right there, the little side street we were on made it feel private and quiet. I can’t express how much we loved it there!"

Recent review on Airbnb:
Wright on the Water was perfect...it's like vacationing in a FLW museum with the beauty of coastal Chesapeake region.
The spacious house, with it's four bedrooms was more than enough room for our group. The well appointed kitchen made meal prep a joy, the family room with it's 2 sofas w/ recliners and music studio to set up our instruments all have beautiful views the water as it makes it's way to the bay!

May dates available - check out the Overland Expo in Flagstaff May 15-17th or Discover Flagstaff to find out more about what's happening in this awesome mountain town next month - and throughout the year. Gretchen's Getaway in Downtown Flagstaff has plenty of space, walking distance to shops/restaurants in a quiet, private spot with views of the mountains. Pool table and piano, too!
