“Beloved for her elegant satirical fiction, Jane Austen’s six novels have become the archetypal model for love stories since the 1800s. Escape in the romance of this enchanting English cottage-style bedchamber featuring a built-in king size bed draped in sophisticated moss-green and blush fabrics, an exquisite antique crystal chandelier, cushioned window nook, and a cozy fireplace. An arched stained glass window adds to the delightful décor of the chamber’s private bath which features a large shower with steam.”

From the moment I set foot on property, I was in love with this magical place. The decor, the attention to detail, the welcoming staff… It all felt so grand yet “homey” at the same time.

If the weather is nice, you can enjoy your 3-course breakfast prepared by a private chef out on the beautiful wrap around porch.
And you’re just a few blocks away from downtown Stillwater so after breakfast, you can walk into town to explore or shop.

The property itself will delight and dazzle you with every new turn down the corridor. Each room, each nook, each cranny and each hallway is designed and decorated to absolute perfection.
