Stay Where the Story Continues

The cottages are open when there is no wedding on the property. A creek, a waterfall, two and a half miles of trails, and the oldest mountain range on earth outside the door.

Come for a weekend. Come back for an anniversary.

Or come once, look around, and start imagining something larger. A guest who stays two nights has seen the whole estate — which is how a good many weddings here begin.

The cottages of Overlook Village along the hillside
Overlook Village

Four cottages along the hill

Phoenix, Bluebird, Goldfinch and Hummingbird — three that sleep four and one that sleeps six, each turned to face out rather than at the next, so nobody is looking into anybody else’s morning.

The Lodge, and inside

Thirty-four beds in all

The Lodge takes the largest group, with the Willow Suite for hair and makeup on the morning and the Mahogany Suite for whoever is still up at one. Timber, glass and quiet throughout — built to be lived in for two nights rather than checked into for one.

What would make this page worth visiting twice. How many each cottage sleeps, which has the bath under the window, which is nearest the creek. That is what somebody choosing between them actually wants, it is the only thing that would justify a page per cottage, and none of it exists yet on the client side. Until it does, a list of names is decoration.

Deliberately not listed here: Lost in the Woods. The framework folds it into the Estate Weekend as the emotional close, rather than offering it as a separate bookable stay.

A couple close together, the estate soft behind them

Come once for the wedding. Come back for the anniversary.

Come back

Return and anniversary stays.

First, fifth and tenth anniversaries for every couple married here. Vow renewals, proposal weekends, return stays for the wedding party, and off-season rates between Saturdays.

Why a wedding estate has beds in it

Thirty-four beds are why the weekend works.

Thirty-four people sleeping on the property is not a convenience that was added afterwards. It is the reason the weekend works at all: the rehearsal can run late, the morning can start slowly, and nobody spends the best day of their life reading directions on a phone.

Between Saturdays the same cottages are simply a quiet place in the woods with a creek at the bottom of it.

Stay first

Book two nights before you book a wedding.

A guest who has slept here has already seen the property at six in the morning and at eleven at night, which is more than any tour can show you.
