This was our 4th time staying at the Red Barn Cottage and our 3rd time staying for our anniversary (we think). Lynne has thought of everything to make our stay comfy. We are always pampered and feel refreshed when we leave for home. Fresh flowers from Lynne's garden, a Happy Anniversary card paired with a bottle of wine greeted us on this visit. Soft blankets and bathrobes await. Fresh eggs and baked muffins were at the ready for breakfast. We will surely stay at this delightful cottage again! Thank you, Lynne!!

Ferndale gem

We stayed here for 2 nights to run the half marathon at avenue of the giants. The red cottage is beautiful, the bed was comfortable and cozy, the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed and the muffins and treats were awesome. It was a great place to have some R&R. We highly recommend this wonderful gem.
