If you are looking for a cozy staycation with gorgeous views, this is the place for you!
With the Dragonfly Cottage, what you see is what you get--it is simple, cozy, and peaceful. The decor isn't fancy and the appliances aren't exactly updated, but it feels like a home.
The hot tub is a nice addition with a beautiful view. Inside the home there are lots of books and magazines for reading material.
Some things to consider before booking:
- the drive up is long, windy, and at times a bit steep. We got along fine in our Honda Accord, but a Jeep or truck would have been nice.
- The cabin is in view of the main house, tree-house parking, chicken coop, and garden; so, if you are someone who prefer extreme privacy - this may not be for you. We found this to be fine, as the family gave us plenty of privacy and did not come down to the cottage area.
- due to the long drive, there is not much of an option for takeout. Plan to bring groceries and snacks! The kitchen has all the basic cooking tools and a microwave.
- the walk down the steps to the hot tub are a bit steep, plan to wear sneakers!
- the bed is fairly high up. I am about 5'4 and the top of the bed reaches my upper abdomen.
We absolutely loved this place! Our goal was to spend our 10 year anniversary getting some much needed relaxation. We cooked, had coffee on the deck, did puzzles, read books, played video games, watched movies, and went in the hot tub. It was the perfect staycation and we would absolutely come visit again!
Thank you for your hospitality, Mary Jane!
