Blockhütte beim Ziegen-Schutzgebiet, Heilung für Menschen und Tiere

The Sanctuary Overlook Cabin is the perfect spot, on 7 private acres, for both a peaceful escape, or a fun-filled stay. The house is well- equipped with everything you need for a memorable visit w/ friends & family (game room, art materials, yoga mats, outdoor games, books, a fire pit, sleds, hot tub and more)

The porch is the perfect place to watch our rescued goats, part of the Frederick Goat Sanctuary, in the field below or spot wildlife in the fruit orchard. Come heal with animals & nature.

The space
When you drive onto the property you will notice a fruit orchard in front of you and the house is on your left. There are motion lights if you come in at night to help guide you to the entrance of the house. There is a covered porch to enjoy, as well as a patio that overlooks a front yard lush with flora and fauna. You are guaranteed to see a variety of wildlife such as deer, rabbits, chipmunks, hawks, eagles, owls, woodpeckers and the occasional bear. Don't get me started on the birds! It is a peaceful place surrounded by beauty.

Upon entering the house, you are welcomed by a cozy and charming living room with exceptionally high ceilings. There is a wood burning stove for winter nights and it is well lit by natural light. On this floor in the back of the house there are two bedrooms; one has a full sized bed and the second bedroom has a queen size canopy bed, large closet and is attached to the full bath.

There is a fully serviced kitchen on the main floor, which is a wonderful space to gather. Your friends and family can sit around a central island that seats four for cooking together, chatting and sharing appetizers. There is also a large table where you can sit down for a meal and enjoy a view of the beautiful field below. Often, you will be greeted by deer in the early mornings and at dusk.

The upstairs has a large and comfortable master suite with a queen sized bed, lovely views and a full bath. There is a bonus room in the loft area with twin beds and comfy reading/game spot that is perfect for kids. It also functions as a workspace, which is flooded with natural light and a view of the downstairs living space below. There is high speed internet and a desk if you need to check into work.

The basement has been transformed into a game room with full sized ping pong table, air hockey table, dartboard, foosball and a bookcase full of games and puzzles for family fun on rainy days. Plus, we have sleds, KanJam, cornhole, croquet, soccer balls, frisbees, scooters and more for those beautiful sunny days! There is also a playground just down the driveway that guests are free to use with younger kids.

If you are a fellow animal lover, the Cabin is part of the Frederick Goat Sanctuary. We have 40 (and counting) rescue goats (we'd love to tell you their stories - so please ask!)

Our herd of "Big Goats" We would love to have you meet them, hang out, and give them treats if you'd like (treats are provided ;).

Weather and schedule permitting, ask the owners for an evening "Goat Happy Hour" where guests can BYOB and join us to relax in hammocks and chairs surrounded by goats to chat about your day and get recommendations for things to do in the area! (Please note that this is available as an extra experience that we offer as we love our guests and goats, but cannot be guaranteed as it is dependent on owners' schedule/timing.)

If you'd like to join us for our more formal experiences such as "Hugs and Hike", the "Adventure Hiker" or "Art with Heart" - reservations are required in advance, unless you are flexible and can join us the day of when there are open spots!

We have a long list of local hikes, restaurants, experiences and attractions in a comprehensive guest binder at the cabin and happy to share our local spots!
