Our favorite memory of Washington
Memories were created that we will never forget!
We stayed in 4 other homes booked through AirBNB
during our Washington trip, but Compass Rose Farms is the standout!
Kateen welcomed us when we arrived and gave us a tour of the land. We instantly fell in love with the simple life, abundant flowers, vegetable gardens and all of the little hidden surprises as we wandered the farm. We did the add-on of picking vegetables from the garden for our dinner. We prepared them in the shared kitchen area and thoroughly enjoyed the fresh, organic dinner. The pots, pans and utensils were provided, but you'll need to bring your own butter, spices, etc.
The Round House was adorable and decorated in a lovely cottage theme. The mattress and pillows were comfortable and provided a restful night of sleep. When we awoke, we had hot tea that was prepared using herbs off the farm. We took a quiet morning stroll through the woods and garden areas sipping our herbal teas and enjoying the peaceful foggy morning with Mongo (the farm dog) walking beside us. We fell in love with Mongo. He was sweet and well behaved and gave us a sense of security on our walk in the woods. We also enjoyed plucking berries and grapes off the vines for snacks. There was a small gift shop to browse and take home a special souvenir or two.
Kateen welcomes you and then leaves you on your own to enjoy everything she offers. When our time there ended, we both hated to end our "Peace Trance".
