Question: I’d like to visit Elsie's Cottage, but I only know a few people who craft, what are my options?
Answer:

Although the majority of our bookings are to one person/coordinator who plans the visit with her friends or clients, there are a couple other options to ensure anyone who would like to visit Elsie's Cottage can.

First, you can post a message to our Message Board to see if anyone is looking for a few people to join them for the stay they have already booked.

Another option is to join a “Hosted Weekend”.  These happen quarterly throughout the year, are hosted by the owner, and include food.  Look for these dates on the Calendar and/or under the reservation icon.
