Back at the home, a walking trail behind the house will lead you into Covered Bridge Park, the perfect exploratory outing for the whole family to take in the natural setting and fresh country air. Evenings are best spent on the home’s spacious deck, enjoying a cocktail or two under the stars and soaking all your cares away in the bubbling hot tub. Heading indoors, you’ll find plenty of private spaces for the group to spread out while still presenting opportunity for connectivity and creating lasting memories.

A few steps away and you’ll be in the dining room, where a chic table and chairs set can seat 4 for formal meals or to host an electric family game night.

Drip and Keurig coffee makers are available for brewing up your morning cup, and you’ll have your choice of prime locations to enjoy it indoors or out.
