Quiet Getaway to take a break - before you "break". Need a mini-vacay or just a few days away? Need to take a break... before you break? Or just looking for some peace and quiet? A retreat at KlockWise cottage is a great choice The perfect place to feel yourself, hear your own inner guidance, walk barefoot (or not), do a walking meditation in the labyrinth, sit in the prayer circle and set your intentions, or just take a deep breath and EXHALE.Our beautiful guest cottage has one large room with a murphy bed that you can lift up and out of the way for your own yoga practice, or morning stretches. And a second room with a kitchenette and sitting area for tea or coffee and a good book! There is a fire cauldron with stone benches next to the guest house, for your own personal fire, or you can request that we do a larger ceremonial fire in the pit out behind the house.We are what mainstream would call homesteading “conspiracy theorists”… we are gathers and makers of art from rocks and gems and natural items from the vast landscape that surrounds us, and many of our creations can be seen around the property! Some is for sale, while some is just for the pleasure of its presence.You can choose to hike or cross country ski in Andersen Forrest that borders our land, drive 20 minutes into Ithaca to enjoy waterfalls, and state parks, visit greek peak for downhill skiing or tubing, or just hibernate here on our hill enjoying peace and quiet.There are 3 large dogs that live here, that you can hang out with should you choose, but we generally keep them fenced when we have guests… there and a few cats that roam the property and love attention, but are not permitted into the guest cottage. *Herbal Remedies (we are medicine makers-www.klockwisecreations.com), books, crystals and other healing supports (reflexology, energy sessions) available for purchase on site*The refrigerator will contain a few simple breakfast items. Should you choose, you can purchase lunch and dinner (simple organic meals) from us with a week advanced notice. Pre-ordered meals will be delivered to the guest cottage at your requested times.There are a number of wonderful restaurants available, all within 30 minutes away, in all directions (Ithaca, Cortland, Owego, Binghamton).
