Woodland Retreat: Wanderlust

Looking for peace & quiet in a pristine, immaculately decorated oasis in the heart of a burgeoning downtown?! Then look elsewhere ;) What you'll find here is a comfortably clean, lived-in house, with a couple of super open minded, welcoming hosts (and pets) that are eager to make you feel at home and included. We like our cocktails and food and relish the opportunity to share with our guests. Small town unpretentious comfort is what we offer, if that sounds good, we'd love to have you over. The space A casually clean house that feels like you're visiting family or friends. As you enter, you'll possibly glimpse any of the 4 cats we have observing you from the shadows. They are shy initially but eager to streak past you into the rooms we keep them locked out of, so be careful of that. They can be quick! Once they get to know you though they adore the attention and it will be hard to keep them out of your lap if you let them. Once you make it to your room, you'll find a gorgeous hanging queen sized bed with fresh sheets and a clean, SHARED, "Jack and Jill" bathroom with any toiletry you might need at hand. Flat screen tv with subscriptions to Netflix, hulu and amazon prime is also in your room along with wi-fi. Tucked in the corner you'll find a coffee bar with an updated selection of a few brews you may enjoy, a Keurig and all the usual coffee fixings. Also, in your room, is a mini fridge available for your convenience. Occasionally, our parrots will remind you they too are a part of the back drop by breaking up the silence - VERY LOUDLY. If uninterrupted silence is what you're after, this is not the place for you. Guest access Refrigerator, microwave and dishes are available for your use. We only ask that you clean up after yourself and leave the kitchen as you found it. Washer and dryer are both available for your use, laundry pods and bleach on hand. Out back we have a fire pit and 2 chairs that you are welcome to use. Hot dogs are usually on hand along with skewers. Living room, dining room, and kitchen are all communal areas. Make yourself at home. During your stay We tend to cook a lot and find ourselves in the kitchen most evenings. We are always open to including guests in any meal plans we have. We are going to eat regardless so the offer is always there. While we enjoy the opportunity to interact with our guests we also respect their privacy and are happy to leave them to set the tone. Have had some guests we interacted with minimally, gone out to dinner with some, made dinner or breakfast for others and have even found ourselves staying up all night playing Cards Against Humanity over a plethora of cocktails. We're open to each experience. Other things to note Overall, this is a casual place to stay if you find yourself in the area. The parrots are sometimes loud and the bathroom is occasionally shared depending on if another guest is staying at the same time. But, we'd love to welcome you and hope your stay with us is amazing! Also, we do have cats. We mostly keep them on our side of the home when having guests but occasionally you may encounter them in shared spaces.
