Guests are welcome to explore and enjoy the entire 15-acre property. Whether it’s summer fun on the river or winter adventures on the trails, this retreat has you covered! Unique History & Pet Policy This beautiful and interesting property was once a church camp and sanctuary. Before its rebuild, the home had 13 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, which gives the space a truly unique character and a sense of community spirit. The property was purchased with a dream to one day become a large breed dog rescue. During the summer months, the second unit is occupied by me and my dogs. For this reason, travelers who wish to bring pets must obtain approval prior to booking. If you have pets, I also have other pet-friendly properties in the area and can happily share those listings. Farm Life Charm You’ll also get to enjoy the company of our hobby farm pets: a rooster, several chickens, 2 guard geese. The chickens produce fresh eggs—just ask, and we’ll have some waiting for you in your unit upon arrival! ⸻ ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Kayak ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 2,200 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/39000000/38210000/38206400/38206325/036e31a4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stay on our pristine lake - bring your boat or let us take you out on ours!
