The garden loft is one of the most popular vacation rentals for 1-4 people in M.S. We offer a very quiet, forest location which is 3/4 mi. from downtown MS. Privacy and quiet are two adjectives former guests have used to summarize their stay with us. Flowers abound. Our kitchen is fully stocked. We are offering a very private, very quiet brand new (May '12) loft that overlooks our manicured gardens. Clients have their own private carport, private entry, private deck and views of the Mt. Shasta and forest to die for. We have approximately 800 sq. ft. of open living space. The only interior wall is the wall that separates the bathroom from the rest of the space. How about a two person shower with two shower heads!!! We have a queen size bed and a pull out sofa bed. We can sleep up to 4 adults. Perfect for mom, dad and two children. We are located 1 mile from downtown Mt. Shasta. Close to shopping and restaurants and yet in a private forest setting. Great hiking, x-country, snow shoeing right out of the loft door. Guests have their own covered parking space out of the snow and sun. Guests are encouraged to walk about the flower garden and greenhouse and enjoy the beautiful gardens. Kids are certainly allowed to play outside as long as they are accompanied with a responsible adult. We do have a dog. We live in the adjacent home and are always available to answer questions. Sandy and I enjoy social interaction with our guests and provide guests with privacy as well. Our nearest neighbors are over 100 yards away. Neighbors homes can not be seen most of the year. In winter (leaves off brush) lights can be seen by one neighbor to the south of the loft. Very quiet spot. We are 1 mile from downtown Mt. Shasta. There are wild animals here. We do get bear, deer, coyote, fox, porcupine, raccoon, squirrels, and a broad variety of birds. Most of the wild animals can only been seen during the night time.
