Summary:
Nestled beneath the tree canopy at Cliffwood Colony, 🌲 Bird Creek Cottage is a mid-century modern retreat filled with thoughtful touches throughout. Overlooking peaceful Mill Creek and surrounded by the quiet of nature, it offers a sense of seclusion and serenity. 🌿 In the evenings, gaze up at the glacier rocks glowing above the trees — a breathtaking sight.
The cottage features three bedrooms: one queen room and two bunk rooms with twin-over-full beds — perfect for families or small groups 🛏️👨👩👧👦.
The Space:
Inside, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen 🍳 stocked with essentials for cooking and dining in, plus a recently updated bathroom 🛁 for a clean, comfortable stay. We provide fresh, hotel-quality linens and two towels per bed to ensure every guest feels well cared for 🧼✨.
Outside, enjoy two peaceful patios — one overlooking Mill Creek, and the other tucked into the woods 🍃. Explore the 50-acre property via historic logging roads, ideal for morning hikes or quiet walks 🚶♀️🌄.
Although it feels secluded, the cottage is just 10 minutes from downtown Ligonier’s charming shops and restaurants 🛍️, and 15 minutes from Idlewild Park — great for families and outdoor fun 🎢🌞.
Bird Creek Cottage invites you to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the rhythms of the woods 🌲💛
