Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.
Step back in time a bit and take it a little off the beaten path. The Tack Shed is a 12'x14' getaway constructed almost entirely from reclaimed or homesawn materials.

The space
This is a rustic throw back bunkhouse style shed. There's no A/C but the windows open, have screens, and there's a fan. There's a shower and sink in the shed but to use the toilet you'll have to come in through the side entrance of my house to access the half bath. Don't expect the Ritz. There's gonna be dust, maybe a fly or two, and the climb to the loft is steep. But if you are looking for a one of a kind place to rest your head and get away from everything.... You just found it!

Guest access
The entire space is yours. If I need my gear I'll have it out before you arrive. There's running water and a small fridge in the shed. Electric cook top as well.

Other things to note
When the temps dip below freezing I have to turn the water off to prevent busted pipes.

I have one dog that may be out time to time. He's super friendly.

Neighborhood highlights

I'm pretty much off the beaten path here. You can sit outside on a clear night and see every star in the sky. My neighbors are a ways off and no yard lights are visible. You're basically surrounded by pasture ground.
