About this property
Thornwood Cottage is the perfect little get away
Thornwood cabin is a beautifully wood-crafted space that is easily accessible from the main driveway. This cabin offers a small living area with new queen size sleeper sofa, equipped with a small kitchen, as well as a loft that includes a queen-sized bed. It provides a private space within very close proximity to the Thornwood house. This will have all outside hookups to charge your fishing boat, perfect for those seasoned fisherman! This a cabin, so the bathroom is not inside the cabin, but is just a few steps off the deck. It is solely for this cabin, has just been remodeled. There is an outside entrance from the Thornwood house. This is a full functioning bathroom, with newly remodeled toilet and shower. There is solar lighting on the path to bathroom, flashlight is also hanging by the door if needed. The fire pit is just a few steps out back of the cabin, wood is available to purchase at a reasonable price. Note - we do rent both the Thornwood house and the cabin separately , so there may be other guest staying at the other location.
