It is a place to enjoy spending holidays, summer and winter, and it holds many happy memories for all who stay there. In winter it is a great place to relax with a cup of something warm and read a book in front of the fire. In the summer, the grand pine trees shade the house and keep it cool and comfortable without need for AC.

2 Brooks is located walking distance to town, just 1/4 mile, in a secluded location. Just sure to save some energy for the journey back as coming home is uphill. Live it up in town without worrying about having to drive home later, as there is no Uber or Lyft in our mountains.

Great Christmas Memories
We had a very enjoyable stay over the Christmas holidays. The cabin has a cozy fireplace at night and the design provides lots of natural light during the day. There’s lots of both indoor and outdoor seating. The back deck with its woodsy view is a particular nice place to relax with a cup of coffee or a book.
