The cottage was built between 1840 and 1850 and is largely furnished with vintage and antiques. If you’re into minimalism or shiny/new/modern, you probably won’t be thrilled with Christine’s Cottage—but if you like old stuff and were born in the wrong century...welcome home!

The space
Guests have the use of the whole house and yard.

Guest access
In addition to the home, there is a large yard and a back deck off the kitchen.

Other things to note
We’re just across a board fence from Magnolia Manor, a large wedding venue in an antebellum home.
