Enjoy a hot tub soak under bright stars, a cozy fireplace in the evening, curious deer in the morning, and incredible wineries at your doorstep. Nestled among giant oak trees, the Oak Haven offers the welcome retreat of a private sanctuary.

Enjoy a glass of wine from one of the many local vineyards and see the deer, turkey and other birds that often emerge from the neighboring woods. When it rains, a gurgling stream borders the property flowing amid grey stones and golden leaves.

Featuring a spacious deck, grill, outdoor table with umbrella and ample seating, The Oak Haven is the perfect spot for drinking and dining in the sunshine or shade. Enjoy a hot, bubbling soak under the brilliant stars after dinner in a comfortable six person hot tub!

High, sloping, wooden ceilings, large windows, a dining table for six, hardwood floors, cozy couch, well appointed lighting and a pellet-burning fireplace create a relaxing experience with natural lighting and a quaint, rustic feel.

Guests have private access to the whole house and everything it has to offer. I only ask that you care for it as you would your own. Thank you!

3 Reasons Why I Fell In Love:

- The sound of morning song birds, ravens, and dappled sunlight filtering through oak trees while enjoying a hot cup of coffee out on the deck.

- The glorious blanket of shimmering stars that came to life while soaking in the hot tub after a long hike.

- Sipping a fine glass of pinot noir in our king sized rocking chair while basking in the waning light of an afternoon sun.
