Great for a romantic getaway or just to experience a bit of nature. We generally prefer mature individuals or couples, no dogs please, (one cat possibly OK). Bringing young children is discouraged due to terrain hazards, etc. Guests are expected to maintain a peaceful, quiet demeanor. Write us via e-mail or call to introduce yourself and your party, and we can arrange your stay. The basic full-service rate is $85 per couple per night, with some discounting for stays of more than two nights. There is also a second room (only for overflow), which can accomodate 1 extra person on a twin size sleeping area, or possibly 2 on our spare queen size mattress on the center floor area (a bit more primitive). This second room is designed more as a meditation and study room. This is available for $50 per night (for sleeping purposes), but day use of this room (for sitting, reading or study) is complimentary to all guests. This second room is not currently air-conditioned. There is also an enclosed outdoor sitting room for guests, which is easily accessible from either room.
Breakfast included if you wish, we will provide standard American fare with perhaps a few unique ad-libs, unless you request otherwise. Certain weekdays we may only be able to provide self-serve pre-packaged items. We hope your stay will be a quiet and relaxing getaway.
