Welcome to our unique studio apartment, where stepping inside may feel like a journey back in time to the era of a charming confectionary shop. The historical character and details of the space have been meticulously maintained, including the double display windows with a display deck, allowing glimpses into the past of this old storefront.

New hardwood floors bring a touch of elegance, and the full kitchen is equipped with all the essentials for your culinary needs. Art deco touches throughout the space create a stylish and inviting atmosphere, while the bright and airy ambiance adds to the overall charm.
Indulge in a luxurious sleep experience on a Saavta Classic bed with a Euro top, complemented by the allure of velvet drapes.

About the host
Hosted by Dee Ford

At our VRBO location, we have a personal connection to this town and its wonderful attributes. We share your appreciation for the quiet atmosphere, stunning scenery, and the refreshing, clean air that fills the area. It is a place that holds a special place in our hearts.
For me, spending time in nature and taking walks in the woods is not just a pastime but a source of energy and relaxation. The natural beauty that surrounds this town is truly captivating, and we want our guests to experience the same sense of tranquility and rejuvenation.
In a delightful twist of fate, I had the pleasure of meeting my husband, Mark, in this very town. During that time, Mark and his family owned and operated the Hotel Switzerland, which has now transformed into the renowned Molly Maquires Pub and Steakhouse. This connection to the town's history and hospitality adds an extra layer of significance to our VRBO location.
We are delighted to share our love for this town with our guests and hope that you, too, will find solace and joy in the quietude, breathtaking scenery, and fresh air that this place has to offer. It is our sincere desire to provide you with a memorable and peaceful stay that reflects the essence of this remarkable town.
