You have the opportunity to view flora and fauna in every season. From the large front porch you can watch hummingbirds feed, listen to whippoorwills on a summer night, hear owls screech, turkeys gobble, geese honk and doves coo. Deer can be seen feeding, while fox, rabbits, and squirrels scamper across the fields. If you are lucky, you might catch a glimpse of bear or coyote. The mountains are filled with redbuds and dogwoods in the spring.
Early summer brings the mountain laurel.
Fall offers glorious colors and winter pristine snow covered fields. There are many different varieties of wildflowers and edible berries, too. On a clear night, there are more stars visible than you thought possible. Meals are prepared from locally raised meats, fresh vegetables, homemade breads and desserts. Meals are healthy and filling.
