Blackberry Creek Garden Cottage is a vacation home located within the friendly village of Coffee Creek, near a country cafe, grocery store and gas station, while retaining the privacy of a mountain hideaway.

The cottage is hidden away among the native pines, fir and cedar of the Trinity Alps, where dogwood, redbud and a blaze of mountain wildflowers blossom in the spring, fern and evergreens provide cool tranquility through the summer, fall foliage comes to life in the autumn, and winter brings quiet solitude among the white splendor of snow.


AMENITIES

The fireplace insert wood stove provides the centerpiece for quiet discussion, relaxation and romance. The cottage accommodates up to six adults with a fully-equipped kitchen, two bedrooms, a full bath, and a living room with a queen-sized divan/bed. Other amenities include a full bath, TV/VCR, and a stereo. A backyard barbecue-picnic-campfire area is the setting for marshmallow roasts, campfires and steak barbecues. A fully-equipped pantry has a washer/dryer, linens and beach towels.

We also provide bicycles and helmets (all sizes, including toddler sizes with training wheels), professional horseshoe and volleyball courts, lawn croquet, badminton, tether ball, teeter-totter, swings, and inner tubes.
