About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Grouseland's Pondside Vacation Cottage. Pet Friendly.

Our cottage is set back about a quarter mile from the road (all back roads here so minimal traffic noise), in nestled next to the pond in the middle of the woods. Our pet friendly solar powered vacation cottage is a perfect getaway for anyone trying to spend some alone time with nature!

We also have various shared hiking trails through the woods surrounding the cottage for campers and cottage guests to enjoy!

Guests staying at our vacation cottage are able to enjoy a furnished bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and dining/lounging space. As well as exclusive access to the pond (no fishing), kayaks, dock, hot tub, fire pit, and large deck with a grill!

Both rooms in the cottage are complete with a Fire TV logged into many of our streaming apps such as Netflix, Prime, Max, Disney+ and Hulu.

We have upgraded to a low flush toilet system so please disregard all reviews about the composting toilet, is has been replaced!

We have hiking trails through the woods surrounding the cottage that are shared with our campers.

Campsites are on the other side of the property from the cottage and campers are told that the cottage and pond are off limits and to respect your privacy.

There are blinds on the windows to allow for complete privacy while in the cottage.

We do live on property and occasionally drive past the cottage to get around, we try to keep this to a minimum and use quiet golf carts when possible.

We keep coming back!

We have been to Grouseland three times now in three different seasons, an each one has been magical in its own way. Mason is a great host, the cottage is so thoughtfully laid out, and the property is beautiful. We’re so excited to have found a place where we can truly unwind!

“Our” Place

Another wonderful stay at Grouseland! We’ve now been in three different seasons, and each has been special in its own way. We feel like we’ve finally found a place where we can truly disconnect from the world. Thanks to Mason for being a great host and keeping this special place!

Perfect, Private, Peaceful

Relaxing, clean, beautiful property. Everything you need to enjoy hiking, kayaking, swimming, feeding the koi, hot tub, grilling and more without having to leave the property. Secluded and beautiful. Peaceful and calm. Dogs welcome which is huge for us and our Saint Bernard who is our baby. We all had a wonderful time and wished we had booked longer!

Magical Getaway

We had such a lovely stay in the cottage at Grouseland! There are so many thoughtful (and whimsical) touches throughout the property, and Mason was so friendly and helpful. Our dog loved wandering the trails and meeting resident dog Archer. We’re already looking forward to our next visit (and hoping for warmer and dryer weather)!

Perfect Quiet Hideaway

This quiet cozy place is perfectly nestled in a peaceful area with a pond filled with the most beautiful fish(no fishing)! The hot tub on the deck to enjoy, a various array of books to read amongst other things just made our stay absolutely perfect.

Little piece of heaven

This was our second stay in less than 6 months. Everything is perfect- the cottage is just the right size for the 2 of us and our dog, and has everything you need for a few days away. Our favorite part is the hot tub and the scenery. We enjoyed the peace and quiet here. Looking forward to staying again. Thank you, Mason!

Great Quick Getaway

The privacy and tranquility was the best! We had the entire property to ourselves and no noisy neighbors to disturb us! The hot tub was hot and the stars were bright. The property was well lit at night, even sitting around the fire. The inside amenities were just as welcoming. Fresh eggs and milk already in the refrigerator and the air conditioning was cranked. All was well and easy to enjoy. Thank you for the peace and quiet and pleasurable experience.
