I'm excited for you to experience the magic of The Roost! Growing up on Long Island, my parents bought land in Franklin in '88. My brother & I loved exploring the creek, searching for frogs, & climbing trees. I purchased The Roost in '23 and I love sharing the experience & helping others find peace, and truly unwind. Whether you’re seeking peace or outdoor excitement, I’m confident you’ll fall in love w/ this special place just as I have.
