About Me
Growing up surrounded by the beauty of rural landscapes, I’ve always felt a deep connection to nature. The crisp mountain air, towering pines, and stunning vistas inspire me every day. I’m passionate about outdoor adventures like rafting down roaring rivers and spending quiet mornings fishing in peaceful mountain streams. These experiences remind me to slow down and appreciate the simple joys of life.
Gardening is another love of mine—there’s something incredibly rewarding about nurturing plants and watching them grow. That passion inspired me to create a vibrant market garden right here on the property, where guests are welcome to pick fresh vegetables during the season and enjoy the fruits of the land (please reach out for a YouPick session).
I created this retreat to share the magic of the mountains and the joy of the outdoors with others. Whether you’re here to explore the trails, relax by the fire, or simply soak in the views, I hope you feel the same peace and wonder that I do every time I’m here.
Welcome to my mountain home—I’m excited to help make your stay unforgettable!

Why they chose this property
Why I Chose This Property
This property holds a very special place in my heart. I chose it because it offers a unique opportunity to live in harmony with nature and honor the ancestral practices that once flourished here. Developing this land has been a labor of love—a journey that connects me deeply to the earth, the mountains, and the history that surrounds us.
Every day, I enjoy working on this land, whether it’s tending to the garden, caring for the native plants, or maintaining the trails that weave through the property. It’s not just about building a retreat; it’s about creating a sanctuary where guests can feel connected to the natural world, just as I do.
I dream of establishing a thriving orchard and vineyard here someday. These projects take time, patience, and a lot of hard work, but I’m committed to making that vision a reality. Watching something grow from a seedling into a fruitful harvest is incredibly rewarding, and I love sharing that process with my guests.
The land is rich with history, including Native American tree artifacts and natural landmarks that tell stories of those who came before us. Exploring these trails offers a chance to reflect on the deep connection between people and the environment—a connection I strive to nurture through sustainable and respectful stewardship.
Ultimately, this property is a reflection of my passion for outdoor adventure, gardening, and thoughtful living. I want every guest to experience the peace, beauty, and inspiration that this place has given me. Whether you’re here to hike, relax by the fire, or simply breathe in the mountain air, I hope you find your own connection to this special land.
