The space
Our cottage is cozy, best for a couple, a small family or a few close friends. The living room w/fireplace, window bench, dining table, kitchen and washer/dryer are all on the first floor. Up our narrow staircase (watch your step!) you will first find our newly renovated bathroom. To the right, there is a large bedroom with a queen bed, writing desk, seating area dresser and closet. On the left, is a small bedroom that just fits a full size bed and dresser. Outside, we have a covered space with seating, a charcoal grill, and a fire pit.
Other things to note
There are a lot of black bears in the area. It’s really important that no food or garbage is left outside, including in cars. Trash should only go in our bear proof trash bin, securely closed. Please clean grill soon after use.

Magical cabin

What a sweet, magical little home! Hosts were immediately communicative, to support booking and a minor issue during our stay - helpful and warm. The house has many sweet, magical features for a cozy stay. Beds, linens, throw blankets & pillows all very cozy. On a beautiful mountain road; clear sky & stars were gorgeous. Thanks!

Charming cottage

Very nice cottage in a beautiful area. Everything you need to stay is there. You can listen to the creek run which is so soothing. Parking was convenient and if you needed anything, it was easy to reach out to property owner and they responded quickly. I am a 911 dispatcher and when I left I felt much more relaxed than when I arrived. Highly recommend!

Very cute cottage

Such a charming little spot. Loved the aesthetic and proximity to hiking and the fun town of Phoenicia. Not a bustling place but plenty to do. The house was clean and comfortable. The stairs made us laugh because they are quirky.

About the host

Hosted by Matthew Duncan

Four longtime friends bought this lovely house to enjoy together and share with guests. We call our home “Never Lonesome,” after a song we love, by Connie Converse:

*In between two tall mountains
There’s a place they call Lonesome
Don’t see why they call it Lonesome
I’m never lonesome when I go there*
