✨ A little quiet online, a lot of life at home — and big things ahead ✨
September 30, 2025 wrapped up our year of bookings in 2025 — not because we didn’t want to welcome more guests, but because this season called us home.
With family trips and a full fall ahead, we chose to slow things down intentionally. October was spent traveling through Italy and Germany with our children, letting them see more than just one spot in the world, learning, exploring, and creating memories together.
Then in November, Rachael traveled to Miami, Florida for work and took our oldest to Disney for the very first time — a once-in-a-lifetime memory that will always hold a special place in our hearts.
You may have noticed we’ve been a little quiet here, too. The truth is moments were happening that weren’t being captured. Life was being lived fully, just off camera, and that time was something we’ll always be grateful for.
This house has always been built for memories — and for a while, it got to hold ours.
As the holidays surround us, we’re feeling incredibly grateful for every guest, every story shared here, and every moment this home has been part of. We hope this season brings you warmth, rest, and joy wherever you are celebrating.
Now, as 2026 approaches, we’re reopening our doors for stays, gatherings, and special events. Our website is up and running again, and the link can be found in the About section here on Facebook.
We cannot wait to fill this home again with laughter, connection, and new memories. We’re dreaming up exciting experiences, welcoming guests near and far, and opening the calendar with full hearts.
Here’s to a beautiful holiday season and an even brighter year ahead. We can’t wait to welcome you back.
