Spacious, family & dog friendly garden oasis home

Dr. Brown's Oasis: Set among towering cedar trees, this family-friendly home offers a perfect retreat to relax & reconnect with nature.

Inside the cabin, you'll find a king-size bed, a pull-out futon, and a twin bed in the loft. The cabin is available upon request for $45 per night. We live on neighboring property and will often walk the perimeter trail or occasionally ride an ATV or dirt bike around it. During the summer months and early fall months, we like to gift our guests fresh veggies and fruits from our garden.

Lawn maintenance will be conducted weekly, with occasional yard checks by arrangement during the spring through fall months.
