2 sites · Lodging1 acre · Pine City, MNMidway between the Twin Cities and Duluth, an ideal getaway. A semi-rustic stay dawns with the next-door rooster's crow, then walk the meditation circle; swing in hammocks; admire sunrise and sunset from the Cottage or front stoop; consume in-season veggies/herbs or preserved foods; play yard games; build a campfire; walk on walking path at the front of the driveway, which will take you to the Snake River; or road trip to nearby parks. Perfect for writers/artists; nature lovers; and those desiring rest, respite, and reprieve.
PLEASE READ to be sure the Cottage is the right fit for you :). You might consider it ‘camping with comforts’:
o The one-room, 250-square-foot tiny cottage, is located in my backyard, behind the house, next to the gardens, and holds the following:
• a writer's/artist's nook, brightened by a woodsy view from the Emily Dickinson-ish desk
• an intimate kitchenette with Breville air fryer, two-burner cooktop, cookware, and staples (many harvested from the gardens)
• a living area with sofa (futon), beverage station, and games
• a lofted reading nook that seconds as a cozier-than-ever bed ((cozy means COZY - long legs may have to slightly bend due to the slanting of the roof (I’m 5’ 9” and fit well); two people in the loft will sleep near and dear))
~Together, the loft and futon SNUGGLY, SNUGGLY sleep up to four
o The Cottage’s porch will greet you, and you may find solitude in the back, taking in the maple-ash-oak view
o The shed behind the Cottage has outdoor games, such as corn-hole bags and Yahtzee, and the sandbox has a handful of toys
o During the cooler months, the Cottage is kept toasty by the electric fireplace and a small, but mighty, space heater, and in the warmer months, it is cooled by the window air conditioner
o The Cottage DOES NOT have running water; though, a filled vessel will be ready for you
o The bathroom facilities are limited to the porta-potty located about 100 feet from the Cottage (please see images); there IS NOT a shower, and again, no running water
o Pets are welcome; however, I do request that dogs are on leash as I have grand-dogs who visit often and to ensure my neighbors’ properties are respected - if you are bringing your pet(s), please select the Pet Cleaning Fee in Extras
