The space:
Welcome to The Cottage, a place to escape from the world - to find rest and relaxation in a peaceful setting. This is a tiny house with everything you may need for a relaxing getaway. The 14-acre property has a couple of walking paths through the woods if you enjoy morning or evening walks. There are open lawn areas as well as wood areas for exploration. You may see the neighborhood deer on the lower lawn in the evening or early morning. Even though we would prefer they stay out of the garden, there will be times you will see them there. The bunnies are very active on our property - you may see them in the garden as well as on the walking paths.
This Tiny House Cottage boasts all the amenities you could need and décor that will give you that country feel. It’s the perfect stay if you love modern amenities with country tranquility. There is 1 bedroom with a queen-size memory foam mattress and 1 bath.
