About this property

Relax in our cozy cottage on scenic Possum Run. Watch wildlife, sunsets and starry skies from the covered front porch with beautiful west view, explore the 65 acres of woods and fields, swim or boat on the freshwater pond then grill out and sit around the large campfire circle. Gather around the handmade dining table (seats 6) for meals, games or puzzles, curl up on the large couch to watch a movie. Sleep well in a comfy queen bed or pick your bunk. Couch makes into a queen for additional sleeping. You can fill your days staying close or venture out to the many area attractions near Mansfield.

Adorable and well-stocked cottage

Very comfy place for a weekend stay. It has everything you need and is very clean. We didn't get a chance to explore the property because it rained. It was very pleasant for staying in and watching movies. Thanks, Kris!

About the host

Hosted by Kris Mason

Your hosts are Kris and Mike - sister and brother. We retired early from city-based life to start our own family farm.

Why they chose this property

Willow Cottage and Pond shared a border with our farm. When the previous owner decided to sell, we jumped at the chance to add this delightful property to our homestead.
