Here Are A Few Kind Words From Our Previous Guests:

☆☆ YOUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME ☆☆
Botanist’s Retreat is my parents' house. They met as botanists over 30 years ago. I spent my childhood days with tons of plants filled in each of the houses we have lived in and collecting plant/soil samples, hence the plant theme! Hope you will enjoy this peaceful respite.
