Seminars & Getaways:

Our Family Of Getaways:
Many different groups have come for weekend stays, for Getaways, Retreats and Seminars. The spaciousness of our connecting dining and living rooms, plus the piano room, give our quilters, sewers and even scrapbookers the ability to spread out and work comfortably. No "tear-downs" at night. It all stays there until you will go home on Sunday. No dress code - except comfortable. It's a place to just run away and have a ball doing what you've always wanted to do but never had the time or space. You've got a group - we've got the place!

Keep in mind that a "Getaway" is just what it is meant to be: Your Time to Get-Away. A "Seminar" is a getaway that will include some instruction and guidance, for both the experienced and the novice.
