Outside: Where the Magic Happens
Two Private Decks
**Upper Deck:**
Morning coffee spot with wooded views. Listen to the stream babbling below while you plan the day.
**Lower Deck:**
- **Private hot tub** – seats 4-6, positioned beside the stream
- **Charcoal grill** – we provide the grill, you bring the burgers
- **Seating area** – family dinners under the trees
**The stream:** It's seasonal (flows strongest in spring/after rain), but the *sound* is year-round thanks to the nearby creek. Guests call it "nature's white noise machine."

Why Blissful Tranquility vs. A Hotel
Let's do the math on a typical 3-night stay for a family of 4 with a dog:

|-------------------------|--------------------------|-------------------|
| Lodging (3 nights) | $537-597 | $450 (2 rooms) |
| Pet Fee | $0 | $100-150 |
| Parking | Free | $60-90 |
| Breakfast (4 ppl x 3 days) | $40 (cook at cabin) | $180 (hotel restaurant) |
