CH-CH-CHANGES!
Just as that popular 80's song declares there is just something about change, adventure, and newness that invigorates the soul - at least that's what Elaine tells us. Some people don't care to venture into that territory but for Elaine it's a challenge which is both exciting and energizing. She does admit, however, to some fear and trepidation but that doesn't deter her. Actually, we are all very excited about the changes which she has made to our Wheeler Room. It went from a rather delicate pink room with soft overtones and a king bed to a much sleeker decor. This totally transformed room is now rich with browns and a hint of green and includes a queen bed as well as a pull-out sofa to accommodate an additional guest. To further enhance the room, she added a corner fireplace which is in full view from the seating area as well as a desk for those guests who care to use their laptop during their stay. This transformation just took place, and photos will be updated on the website as soon as possible. You just might want to check out this new look on your next stay with us.
SUMMER AT LAST!
With the arrival of sunnier skies and warmer temperatures our 17 acres are greener than ever. Last fall's planting of the next stage of our landscape design has not only survived but is thriving. We love when that happens. We're enjoying the different varieties of plants and flowers. It's amazing how good that can make one feel. Sitting out on our patio overlooking the pond and its fountain is just the relaxation one needs at the end of the day.
The nice weather has also spurred a number of outdoor adventure seekers to visit our area. These include hikers, bikers, and paddlers on the river. It's a great time of year for enjoying the outside whether by hitting one of the local trails, visiting a local attraction or by simply relaxing and taking in nature's beauty and fresh country air.
