Escape from the tech-connected, day-to-day at Elk Meadows Cottage

Families or groups seeking an escape from the tech-connected, day-to-day news and social media could not find a better retreat than Elk Meadows Cottage.

ABOUT ELK MEADOWS COTTAGE

No internet, no cable television. Here you set your own schedule, follow your dreams and imagine new horizons.

This home has been lovingly built by the owners on their 10-acre property to offer you a welcome hiatus from your day-to-day. While here, you'll be surrounded by forest with hiking trials through the property to a pleasant creek. There are many other trailheads just minutes away, including some into Goat Rocks Wilderness.

Hang out on the covered wraparound porch and enjoy the wildlife - including deer, elk, eagles and a variety of other birds and critters - that meander through the property. If you enjoy outdoor cooking, there's a gas barbeque to help you indulge your inner grill master.

The living room, with vaulted ceiling, wood burning stone fireplace and comfortable furnishings, is perfect for curling up with a book or pulling out the puzzles and games to play with the kids. Or enjoy one of the provided DVD movies on the television.
