Ferndale gem

We stayed here for 2 nights to run the half marathon at avenue of the giants. The red cottage is beautiful, the bed was comfortable and cozy, the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed and the muffins and treats were awesome. It was a great place to have some R&R. We highly recommend this wonderful gem.
