Three primary school teachers ‘retreat’ to this ‘sweet’ spot amongst the wild flowers and furry farm friends. We simply loved the cozy vibes of this property and were delighted by the level of thought and care put into all aspects of the airstream and patio. Would recommend to any small groups looking to catch up with family or simply relax.

We're so glad y'all had a relaxing stay! We would love to have you back!
The listing is accurate and the communication with host was excellent and timely. We had been searching for a truly secluded place and weren’t able to find it until Riveted Retreat. It was peaceful, secluded, and relaxing. We went for walks and listened to birds and just sat and talked and read. The airstream is furnished so we didn’t have to bring anything. I recommend brining a cast iron pan for the fire grill outside just in case for cooking but the kitchen was fully furnished with a single burner cooktop. The shower had the best pressure and nozzle I have ever felt! There were small amenities provided in case anything was forgotten. This was much appreciated since my husband forgot his toothbrush. Birds food to refill the feeder was fun and lots of birds came and it was peaceful listening to them sing. Highly recommend if you are looking for a true get away to disconnect, be alone, and relax.
