NOTES FROM THE DOLLHOUSE - STAY A WHILE

Stay a while!

It is an enchanting place!


Stay a while!

I know the perfect space!


It is near the dollhouse.

A precious find!


Stay a while and step back in time.

Let's go to a place full of wonder & mysterious tunnels and hidden rooms! Secret staircases and bookcases that reveal hidden rooms. So many stories waiting to be heard!


Pack a bag and stay a while!


Lush flowering shrubs and cherry blossom trees line the main sidewalk. The brick walkway winds around the grounds of the main house, twisting itself in exquisite flower beds. Vibrant yellow, pink and purple petals pop out of the green leafy backdrop.


Staring up at the beautiful brick, I am pulled into an adventurous tale as my reality merges with that of a story book. The tall mansion looks like a witch's castle! The peaks of the many roofs look like witch hats! The moon flowers are in full bloom!


Is this place real? There is a light, floaty, magic feeling in the air.


Stay a while!

Through the door, you will find comfort and rest.

Warm yourself in front of the fireplace in the foyer and enjoy hot cocoa and Rosalind chocolates. The grand foyer is covered in canvas paintings, created by local artists. The beautiful wooden staircase leads to a magnificent stained glass window.


Is this place real? Are my eyes playing tricks on me?


Stay a while!

Enjoy a book from the huge library. Take a ride on the ladder as you explore rows of ceiling to floor books around the entire room! Reading mythology on the chaise in front of the library fireplace is an experience like no other!


I may stay forever!


The plantation window shutters have me feeling like a princess in her tower under the moonlight! The soft glow from the lamp creates shadow figures on the walls. The sheepskin blanket warming my cold bones, is making me sleepy. Summer has left and autumn is settling in. As darkness falls for the evening, I hear I should stay a while.


Stay a while!

Dine here and enjoy the chef's special or indulge in the incredible tastes of the town's favorite restaurants and eateries! The brewery and business district are both just a short walk away!


Stay a while!

Retire to your suite for the evening and enjoy local baked treats and hot coffee waiting for you!

Soft linens and plenty of pillows on the grand king, wooden four post bed with carved rose detail call my name.


What do my eyes see?

This place is incredible!

Is this place real?

Am I dreaming?

I assure you, my eyes can see clearly.


Fresh lavender, rosemary, chamomile and mint from the dollhouse gardens fill a golden vase on the mahogany round table near the bedroom fireplace.

I set down the book I found in the library, on the table.


Stay a while!

I walk around my suite and discover a beautiful bathroom. Fresh towels, slippers and a robe are waiting for me. The vanity displays glass jars of fresh flower petals, herbs, and some grains. Salt and sugar scrubs, soaps and lotions from the local boutique fill the brass cart next to the over-sized claw foot tub.


Candles from the town candle maker light up the bathroom with their comforting glow.


Stay a while!

After a long soak in luxurious bubbles, I wrap myself up with the robe, slip on those slippers, grab my coffee and head towards the balcony.


I settle into a wooden basket swing and listen.

The sound of the trains and the river soothe my soul.

Sounds of a guitar are carried with the breeze.

The wise, old owl, hoots in the direction of the trees along the river. The beautiful full moon hugs the earth with her radiance.


Stay a while and learn the history.

Stay a while and hear the stories.

Stay a while and rest your tired soul.

Stay a while and plant your roots.

Stay a while and build a beautiful life.


Under the glow of the moonlight, I climb into bed, rest my body and my soul, while dreams become reality.
