The Cottage

The Cottage design is inspired by 한옥 (hanok: traditional Korean farmhouses) and the earth-centric midcentury modern design of Russell Wright’s Manitoga. The pond and fairy garden (ongoing) are inspired by the work of landscape architect James Rose.

The cottage has on-site parking. Cottage guests have access to a bonfire pit and the jacuzzi cabana, pond, and 14.2 acres of woods.
