Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2007
Dear Visitor: My name is Kathleen Dryden and I am sole proprietor of Cottage ProPassione in Driggs (Teton Valley) Idaho. ProPassione is an Italian word meaning "For Passion" or for your passions. I am passionate in my quest to offer guests the most comfortable lodging they could ask for in their home away from home. And, I believe that you can discern from the comments in my guestbook that I have been successful in that quest. Even though our nation, as well as nations around the world, is facing economic hardships many folks are still looking for a special and memorable vacation; a chance to get away from life in the fast lane. I have made every effort to offer high quality facilities for an affordable adventure to folks desiring to spend their vacation in and around The Tetons, the most magnificent mountain range in the United States. I invite you to closely evaluate the amenities, the ambiance, and fair pricing offered through Cottage ProPassione, and if you find that my cottage meets your vacation needs please don't hesitate to be in touch. Meeting your vacation needs is a high priority and a passion of mine. Thank you for visiting listing # 181429. Warmest regards, Kathleen
Why the Owner Chose Driggs
Even though I had never traveled west prior to 1996, for the majority of my life, to live on a ranch in the west would have been heaven on earth for me. But in July of 1996 I was privileged with a tour of the Northwest and on the final leg of my journey I spent a couple of nights in Jackson, WY. There I fell in love with the climate, the snow capped peaks of the Grand Tetons in summer, and the cowboy style in this quaint historical town. Immediately I wanted to be a permanent part of the ambiance reflected here in this beautiful territory. Coming from a large family, I also wanted them to experience the majesty I was enjoying. Added to this desire was a lifelong passion to indulge my love for hospitality through a B&B, which never materialized, therefore, a vacation rental was the next best thing. In this manner, I was able to provide an affordable opportunity for folks throughout our nation and from around the world to experience the beauty and excitement that we call the American West; The Grand Tetons from both Teton Valley, Idaho, known as the Quiet Side of The Tetons, and the Historical cowboy town of Jackson, Wyoming on the eastern side of The Tetons. Cottage ProPassione offers all the comforts of home away from home.
The Unique Benefits of this Condominium
On the rare occasions when I have the opportunity to stay at the cottage, I find tremendous enjoyment in the cozyness and the peacefulness both in summer and in winter; It is easy to be there. Its comfort and beauty are rewarding and enjoyable yet undemanding of perfection. I also enjoy the short treks into Driggs for a Friday night wine tasting at Alpine Wines, or a great glass of wine and high quality food on the deck of Forage, a quaint little restaurant just down the street. I love airplanes, so a favorite passtime is to drive the three miles over to the Driggs airport and dine outdoors at Warbirds Cafe and watch the fly-ins. Connected to the cafe is a Warbirds Museum offering a unique look at the war planes of our history. There are many other amenities related to the cottage and the area, but I have chosen these because they are ones that touch me most. Visitors may have other choices that for them would better define the uniqueness of Cottage ProPassione and Teton Valley.
