The "NEW"
Charmed Cottage
is Now COMPLETE
Seventeen weeks of
renovation; it was tough. We ran into several problems that we
have overcome and the cottage is absolutely stunning. It is
peaceful and private, shady with just the right amount of sun, great
view and lush forest. The stream and waterfall add just the
right amount of outdoor listening pleasure along with all the birds.
To sit outside or even inside (with all the windows) and watch the
hawks and buzzards glide in the air stream and even get a chance to
notice an owl moving to another tree is fascinating and very
relaxing.
If you are a bird
watcher - this is the place
(see photo at the
bottom of this page).
The first couple of
guests have come and gone and they plan to come again. Both
families indicate they will be back again and highly recommend it.
This place
has so many blooming plants, I can hardly wait to see them.
The trees and flowers are on the verge of spring in many of these
photos. To watch the mountain grow greener from the bottom up
is beautiful. See photos below from cottage guests McClure and
Bailey taken when things are in bloom. These are just five of many taken
by these guests.
Looks like all guests
(including myself) are catching some fantastic mountain scenery and
cloud action in the valleys along with fabulous sunsets.
