A Perfect Retreat
We loved our stay at the Red Bird House! The beautiful, modern home is perfectly sited on a private, quiet wooded property, with large windows that bring the natural world into the house. It has all the amenities of a home and the added pleasures of a spa stay! We had a wonderful soak in the large hot tub (four of us), and loved the sauna, salt booth, and steam shower. There’s a very cool thing called a Somadome for enhanced meditation, and even a massage room (with a list of massage therapists you can hire, which we’ll use next time). Everything is thoughtfully user-friendly, with clear wall-mounted instructions, which makes using the spa relaxing and hassle-free.
The hosts are great communicators and made everything effortless. When we booked our stay we’d anticipated exploring the area’s many antique shops and restaurants with, perhaps, a side trip to some Woodstock festival-related sites. But with all the amenities and comfort of the home and all the thoughtful touches (lots of games and puzzles, a fire pit!), we mostly stayed in. Next time we visit we’ll be sure to book an extra day or two to explore the area.
