The Applewood Cottage is a one story passive solar design set into the hill. Light tubes and skylights help reduce the need for electric lights. Fully air conditioned and heated. A large covered deck on the west end is accessed from the dining room or kitchen and has both seating and a table and chairs for outdoor dining. The cottage is tucked into the trees on three sides and open on the west, allowing a view of the grazing llamas. Free WiFi is available.

“After many delightful stays in the Blue Ridge Room with our fur faced family, and having had the pleasure of eating meals and visiting with your Mom, we are honored to be the first guests to stay in the Applewood Cottage. The Cottage was perfect for our us and our dogs and we all found ourselves thinking of it as our home away from home. We are so comfortable and at peace there and we cannot thank you enough … it is beautiful.
