About this property
Artful Retreat - next to The Himalayan Institute
We have 3 years of nearly perfect guest reviews on AirBnB! Starting in 2023, we're also listing our home on VRBO. Our home was recently updated, including brand new mattresses and 400-thread-count sheets, this peaceful retreat sits on an expansive 1.3 acre lot, adjacent to The Himalayan Institute property, which offers yoga, seminars and massage, etc. Enjoy your morning coffee watching the sunrise from the deck and occasionally see deer roaming through the lovely back yard. This light, airy home is filled with whimsical touches and artwork throughout. We welcome people from all backgrounds and walks of life.
Enter through the front door, and immediately feel welcomed into our light, airy, serene home. Large windows create a bright living space and provide the feel of being connected to the outdoors. The living room includes ample, cozy seating and a pull-out queen sleeper sofa. We have a 54” TV with cable service and a designated work-space, with a desk. We offer FREE WIFI.
The Master bedroom has a king-sized bed with a vintage barn door, that we converted into a headboard. As you recline on the new 100% organic mattress (with luxurious mattress-topper), you’ll be looking at a photo of the sunset over the Gangha River in India. There is a lounge chair with a footstool and lamp for snuggling up with a good book. This bedroom also has a huge closet and an en-suite bathroom.
The second bedroom has 2 double beds. There is a wide 12-foot closet that provides plenty of space for extra luggage. There is a full bathroom across the hallway. We provide towels, pillows, blankets and 400-thread-count sheets for all beds.
The large kitchen is fully equipped with everything you may need for cooking meals. Windows overlook a beautiful wooded area. There is also a dishwasher and clothes washer/dryer for your use. We provide tea, Moka Origins coffee, and chocolate made right in Honesdale, PA for our guests.
The dining room offers space for 8 people to share meals together. There are ceiling fans in every room and baseboard heating as well as a gas burning stove which keeps this home very warm in winter. We have central HVAC for the warmer months and baseboard heating for the cooler months, to ensure you are cozy any time of year.
Parking spaces for two cars are provided in our driveway.
