Lazy Dog Ranch
Stay

A cabin for two on eighty acres, yours alone

One bedroom, one bath, a deck facing the land, and nothing else for a long way. Built for a romantic evening away. Available occasionally, upon request.

The cabin

Black steel, pale wood, and a view with nothing in it

The cabin sleeps two: one bedroom with a wall of glass onto the land, a bath with a walk-in shower, and a deck for the evening. Walk the creek at first light, take the trails through the hills in the afternoon, and watch the stars come up over the fields.

You will have company of a kind. Deer play in the fields, large groups of turkeys move through, and our cows rotate pastures across the year. In the fall you can hear the coyotes that live down on the creek howling after dark. It is not a hotel and we do not run it like one. We open it occasionally, to one couple at a time, when the land and the calendar allow. To stay, reach out.
