Where peace, lake views, and the beauty of nature, meet the art of quilting.
See what a Lakeview quilting getaway really feels like
Peaceful days of quilting with a private lake view at every workstation, quiet countryside mornings with fresh coffee, and time to simply create. Homemade brunch and dinner are served daily at our large open seating table so you can relax and focus on what you love. Our single-level lake home offers nine beds, one private room (the library), one semi-private room (the patriotic room), the music room with 4 beds, and the lakeside room with 3 beds plus a fireplace. There are three bathrooms, personal space for your belongings, easy parking, and a wagon available for loading and unloading. All linens and toiletries are provided. Enjoy access to the private 2.5 acre lake (bring your fishing pole if you want) and unwind in rocking chairs and swings overlooking the water. We love to spoil you.

I love to spoil fellow quilters and have been to many retreats doing "research". Please let me know if there is anything I could add to make your retreat Memorable. Beginner quilters are welcome and I am happy to help you learn the art of quilting.
Please contact me with your Preferred dates. I am closed on Saturdays, but if your group would like to stay on a Saturday, there is no charge for that day. you would need to arrive on Friday (or earlier) and make arrangements for meals or prepare your own meals on Saturday. There are a few fast food places in Hanson (15 minutes south) and restaurants in Madisonville (20 minutes south).
Happy quilting,
Susan Crowley
