Riverstone Cottage, Bright and Airy Forest Retreat
This quiet and secluded stone cottage is set in 3 acres bordering the Prescott National Forest. It is the perfect place to explore both Prescott and the local hiking/Bike and OHV trails. Goldwater Lake is just 2 miles away and is a gorgeous spot for hiking, fishing, kayaking and picnicking. Downtown Prescott is only stunningly beautiful 10 minute drive.
The cottage is an open plan studio apartment. The living area is open with plenty of windows and natural light. A comfy couch with footstools is the perfect spot to relax after a long hike, or a day enjoying Prescott. Pop your feet up, snuggle in front of the fire and you might even catch a beautiful sunset right from the couch. The Queen bed has cotton and linen bedding, and a very comfortable tempur pedic mattress.
The kitchen is open plan, with a small fridge, with an ice box, two ring hot plate, multi-function toaster oven, microwave, K-cup coffee maker, milk frother, tea kettle and all the pots, plans and utensils you will need. A small dinning table completes the kitchen nook.
The bathroom has a walk-in shower, and you will find a hairdryer in the cabinet under the sink. If you find you have forgotten something the are some emergency items there too.
There's a desk if you need to ctach up with some work, plus very fast wifi.
There is step-free access to the cottage from the driveway to the side of the patio, if you prefer not to use the steps at the front of the cottage.
The cottage has it's own private patio, with chairs, table, and propane griddle, perfect for outdoor dining, or cocktail hour. The area just across the driveway from the cottage, on the top of the hill, is available for you use with chairs and a bench, it's a lovely spot to watch the sunset through the tall pines.
We are on a septic tank, so please follow the guidelines in the folder, there are some gentle reminders for you too.
The road to our property is paved, and is usually plowed quickly when it snows. Our driveway is gravel and has some steep areas, and so a 4WD vehicle is needed during snow.
It doesn't snow often, but snow can happen between November and March, and so you may need a 4WD vehicle. It's incredibly beautiful when it snows, and we want you to be able to access the cottage safely.
If you are booking a last minute, and there's no snow, then you don't need a 4WD. If you are booking a long way out, please make sure you have one if your visit in in snow season mentioned above. Feel free to message me about this too.
Please note, the open plan nature of the kitchen and grounds, with an unprotected creek and road, means this listing is not suitable for infants or children, and is in our house rules.
