WHAT TO DO
Start your days watching the sunrise on the back porch with a mug of your favorite hot beverage or on a yoga mat. (Don’t be surprised to see elk or deer quietly sauntering through the pastures.) In the evenings, sit a spell on the front porch, watching the sun set through the whispering pines and listening to the tree frogs until the fireflies show up and the stars show out. There are many options for filling up the time in between.
STAYING IN
If you plan to simply stay in, there are cozy quilts and comforters, games, puzzles, an ample selection of DVD's, vintage vinyls, books, calming views, and plenty of peace and quiet. The property is surrounded by both open pastures and towering trees with soft, pine-needle-covered lawns.
