Indoor Whirlpool Hot Tub - All of the same benefits, but, “Better than an outdoor hot tub” - Here’s why…. When you use an outdoor hot tub, it has chlorine to kill any bacteria because the water is reused! With our indoor whirlpool hot tub, the water is drained after each use, and the tub is thoroughly cleaned after each guest leaves. No leftover dirt, grime, or bacteria. No stinky chlorine smell left on your skin. No worries about sitting outdoors in cold or inclement weather. Enjoy the relaxation, massage, and warmth of a hot tub while viewing nature through the large windows. In addition to the jets, you can turn on the “air bubbles” feature which fills the water with lots of little air bubbles…. So relaxing!

*A note about the winter months of January, February, and March. The winter months are one of the best times to be here! It does not snow often, but the weather is cooler and the leaves are off the trees and it is a great time for hikes in the woods. When it does snow it is so lovely to watch the soft snow falling through the large windows in the great-room. Most of the time the snow is not heavy enough to cause any problems getting in and out of the road.
The house sleeps 13. There are 2 king-size beds, one queen-size bed, one twin/twin bunk, one full/twin bunk, a twin trundle bed, and a queen-size sleeper sofa.
Our home where we now live is also on the property, but far enough away so that you have complete privacy. The property is a large mountain cove and is completely private from any other neighbors. It feels very secluded.
