A gas grill, fire pit with free firewood, and high-speed WiFi is included.
Cottage stays also include full use of our kayaks and canoes that you can use to float peacefully along on the quiet and scenic Galien river that borders our estate. Guests may also borrow our bikes to ride to the beach or explore the local towns and back roads and are also welcome to pick and eat anything out of hand that is growing in the fields of our organic farm and orchard. Our large playground structure is close to the cottage and includes swings, climbing walls, monkey bars, a slide, and multiple level decks. There is also a large aviary featuring our chickens, ducks, and quail (for all of our farm-fresh eggs). We also have seasonal yard games to play including bags, badminton, bocce, and horseshoes. Breakfast at the inn can also potentially be added to your stay, if available ($20/person). Well-behaved dogs may stay too ($20/day per pet).
