Your Great Escape

A True Home Away From Home

Awaken to the tantalizing aroma of a delicious breakfast being prepared just for you.  Follow the wafting scent of fresh coffee to the Main Dining Room and delight in your candlelit breakfast with a splendid place setting. Rosalie has earned acclaim for a “real production” at breakfast.

Later on, let the hours drift away while floating in the shimmering swimming pool or taking a dreamy nap in the Garden Room on cushions nearly a foot thick (Craig was the “test pilot” and proclaimed them worthy of the grandest naps!) Take the rocking chairs for a spin as you gaze out at the verdant farms backdropped by the Blue Mountain Range. In winter, bask in the warmth of the wood-burning fireplace while scanning the grandeur of outlying snow fields and our sweeping farm and mountain views. Sway in a hammock with a good book or with the love of your life at your side.

After you return from dinner, how about a movie and popcorn in our theatre? Or challenge your travel partner to a board game.  The addictive jigsaw puzzle beckons—one is always going in the Garden Room.  Slowly slide into the steaming hot tub and let the cares of the world soak away.  Do you play the piano?  You’ll find ours in the Parlor. Our biggest goal is that guests have a relaxing time, unwind, and depart feeling rejuvenated, reconnected, and having found their home away from home.
