MUSIC
Amazon Echo speakers are spread throughout the cabin interior for your enjoyment. Connect your phone through Bluetooth or ask Alexa to play exactly what you want to hear. Echo Dots in the sleeping areas double as alarm clocks and have digital time displays that can be turned on or off through voice command.

Want to do more than just listen to music? Light up that electronic piano keyboard or the electric guitar in the game room! Don’t worry, parents - they come with plug in headphones!

Need a breath of fresh air? The CHILL ROOM opens to a coated concrete patio where things heat up fast.

REJUVENATION
The walkout patio is coated in beautiful slip-resistant carbon flake while bistro lights cast an amber glow over the hot tub and sauna. The hot tub is a 2024 Jacuzzi J-365 that seats up to 6 people. The sauna is a 2024 SalusHEAT dry infrared sauna made for 1-2 people. The sauna has multiple interior lighting color choices and a built-in bluetooth speaker for your favorite jams! The Jacuzzi is loaded with jets, a little waterfall, and gorgeous multi-colored lights. A large set of stairs with handle and assisted lift cover make safe hot tub use a breeze. The hot tub experience in this wooded backdrop is incredible at any time of day. Birds chirping in the morning, gorgeous sunsets, but it is absolutely divine under the soft glow of the bistro lights at night. The only thing more comforting than being massaged by the powerful hot tub jets is wrapping up in an oversized baby soft towel and snuggling in to the hammock swing before deciding what fun you’ll have next.

OUTDOOR FUN
Just steps from the "therapatio" are large back and side yards. We have a set of regulation bags & boxes with distance rope for you to enjoy! Catching a warm afternoon breeze on the tree swing out front is a whole experience. The tree is massive and absolutely lovely.

PORCHES/BALCONIES
Outdoor gathering spaces overlook wooded acreage and a seemingly endless field with beautiful sunsets. Guests enjoy comfortable couches, chairs, and loveseats while listening to morning birdsongs over coffee or savoring a glass of wine after a wonderful day.

PROPANE GRILL
4 burners + a side burner. Propane and grill utensils provided!

FIRE PIT
There is a fire pit with tons of cozy seating behind the garage just off the breezeway. We do not guarantee firewood, but often guests leave firewood behind. There are several locations that carry it right down the road as well. Anything that is already in that area is yours to use!

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
There are 6 sleeping areas in the cabin: 3 bedrooms, 1 loft, 1 main floor living room, and 1 lower level living room. The cabin sleeps 14 total people on beds: 8 on formal beds and 6 on custom pullout sofas with queen memory foam mattresses. Additional sleeping options for up to 8 are available on air mattresses and other lounging furniture throughout.

The upstairs primary bedroom is a dream! An electric fireplace and large tv sit across from a king bed with a remote controlled adjustable foundation with massage feature and a super comfortable extra deep pillow top mattress. The primary bedroom also has a custom queen sleeper sofa and an additional queen air mattress in the closet. A Keurig coffee maker and private bathroom afford guests the luxury of stepping out onto the private balcony for some peaceful personal reflection and tranquility before beginning an exciting, fun-filled day with loved ones. A large ceiling fan suspended from the cedar plank vaulted ceiling offers guests a comfortable breeze and is remote controlled along with its light for convenience.

The main level bedrooms are equipped with heavy duty steel bed frames that support up to 750 pounds and have the same wonderful mattresses as the primary bedroom. There is over a foot of open storage underneath each main level bed for suitcases, shoes, and bags. The closets also have built in drawers and shelving as well as box fans for those who want a cooler room or simply sleep better with the sound. The main level bedrooms are adjacent and just steps from the full main floor bathroom. One bedroom has one bed, and the other has two beds. There are no bunk or stacked beds.

The loft sleeps 2 people on a custom pullout sofa with a queen memory foam mattress and 2 more on an air mattress. The main floor living room can sleep 2 on couches and 2 on a queen sized air mattress. The lower level sleeps 2 on a custom pullout sofa with queen memory foam mattress and 2 more on a queen air mattress.

BATHROOMS
All bathrooms (one on each floor) are equipped with luxury rainfall shower heads as well as handheld sprayers. The upper level and basement have showers, while the main floor bath has a tub/shower combo. The shower in the new basement bathroom has wall-mounted body jets too! Each bathroom has a full size hairdryer and toiletries for your convenience.

KITCHEN
Guests love the fully stocked kitchen at Sticks & Stones! Dishes and cutlery are upscale, and there are tons of cooking supplies including a lazy susan full of spices and cooking basics. Cocktail, wine, and champagne glasses are provided for the many celebrations hosted here. Best yet - there is an additional full sized refrigerator in the breezeway to accommodate larger groups. The breezeway also houses a purified drinking water cooler! One 5-gallon jug is provided for each stay. If a partial jug is inside the cooler at check-in, a full back up jug will be stocked nearby. No more hauling giant cases of water!

OFFICE ACCOMMODATIONS
There are 2 large desks inside the property and fast, reliable internet. One desk is in the primary bedroom and the other is in the double bedroom on the main floor. Additionally, many travelers prefer to use the kitchen table, counter space, and coffee tables.

PARKING
The driveway comfortably accommodates 6 vehicles with additional parking alongside the road.
