About the host

Thank you so much for deciding to stay at our home! We are empty nesters who wanted a place to relax and enjoy what life has to offer. Nestled in the mountains just seemed like the perfect place to relax and enjoy what Mother Nature has to offer. A good book, a warm fire, what else could you possibly ask for.
