A Warm Welcome!
The Crafting Cottage opened in May 2003 as a paper crafting shop filled with rubber stamps, papers, ribbons, and more. Classes and workshops were offered weekly.
Today, the Crafting Cottage has become a destination for weekend retreats, overnights, crops, workshops, classes, and special events for the paper crafter.
Three guest rooms, each with two twin beds, dedicated private full bathrooms and individually controlled heating and air-conditioning allow crafters to craft as long as they wish and easily head to bed when it suits them.
A fully stocked kitchen with glassware, plates, pots, pans, crockpots and more gives guests the choice of making their own meals or ordering take-out from the many restaurants in the area that will deliver.
