It is packed with all the charm and amenities that are sure to please everyone in your group, both big and small.

And she has all the modern all the things that bring the most convenience – new fixtures, modern kitchen and Wifi. Each space is the perfect combination of old and new, and together it is magical. The Chef’s Kitchen has been completely renovated by one of your Home Town favorites - Dustin, the Cabinet Guy or more formally DC Specialties - with a large gas stove and stunning cabinetry with an antique China cabinet as the focal point. Fix yourself drip or Keurig coffee from the coffee bar surrounded by metal tiles with amazing patina while overlooking the wooded, private backyard. Or enjoy a mixed drink or wine in our crystal glasses or tea in our favorite Pioneer Woman glasses. Our playful plates, kitchen utensils and pots and pans are Pioneer Woman too. This just adds to the enjoyment with beautiful, quality kitchenware. Relax after exploring Laurel in our living room with a 55-inch TV with Xfinity, large (real) leather tufted sofa, antique sideboard, Jacobean highboy and the original marble fireplace surround. The large dining room seats 8 for those big gatherings with curtains that Erin used on the show. The furnishing in the bedrooms were carefully selected to create a peaceful, Southern retreat. The master has a pillow top king bed with beautiful drapery and antique wall décor. The second bedroom has a pillow top queen and pillow top full bed (2 large beds!) with cheerful bedding. The third bedroom has a pillow top queen bed with the prettiest curtains and wall art tying it all together. We are very focused and committed to clean. We wash ALL bedding (sheets and comforters) between each stay. We sanitize all hard surfaces and have Lysol products available for your use. We have an air purifier in the cottage. We also have antibacterial soap and hand sanitizer for you use. Both bathrooms have new shower and sink fixtures, but the original craftsman tile was kept to add to the playfulness. The master bathroom has a rain and side shower head. All bathrooms have quality towels. The patio has a cheerful feel overlooking a large, private backyard. There is also a creek behind the tree line that will be fun for the kids. There is an old iron playground slide that is usable now and our next project to repaint it. We did our own HGTV-like project and cut the old front screen door going down to the game room/basement. The game room is a really unique, shiplap space that is almost 1,000 sq ft. There are plenty of board games and cards to enjoy while overlooking the patio and backyard. We hope your group enjoys spreading out on the rug and coffee table for game night. Our beautiful pictures were taken by Randy from the Woodshop. Such a talented craftsman with photography too! Come visit Mason and Rose Cottage, a place where time stands still.
