Other things to note
We are a strictly fragrance-free, eco-conscious retreat designed for guests with chemical sensitivities and allergies. This means no perfumes, colognes, scented lotions, fabric softeners, dryer sheets, or fragranced personal or laundry products.

Because scents linger deeply in clothing, luggage, and personal items, this space is best suited for guests who already live a fragrance-free or low-tox lifestyle (e.g., using unscented/natural laundry detergents and personal care products). If you regularly use scented products—even if you don’t plan to bring or apply them here—this property may not be a good fit.

Guests arriving with noticeable synthetic fragrances embedded in clothing or belongings may be subject to additional deep cleaning fees to restore the space for future guests with sensitivities.

We appreciate your understanding and respect for maintaining a safe, comfortable environment for everyone.

*Our hot tub has minimal harsh chemicals.
*Some guest choose to dine out at one of the many local restaurants; while others bring in takeout, prepared food, or bbq and dine in-house. We provide any tableware, drinking glasses/stemware and candles. :)
***no need to worry about clean up~ we do it all.

*We also have a guest fridge to accommodate guest’s food/snacks/beverages.

* please note, although we love dogs and cats, we are not a suitable space to bring your pet.
* Children 12~14 are welcome accompanied by parent(s)
*amenities are just for guests, no visitors please.

My Husband and I enjoy sharing our nature emmersed experience with others. We know what we really appreciated on our own travels; from comfy beds, nice sheets, good coffee, friendly hosts and a chance to explore in nature. I have always enjoyed creating serene environments indoors and out, and I like to reclaim, re-purpose and refinish furniture pieces as well as design gardens. We invite you to play, and rejuvenate in our special oasis.
