Overnight Accommodations

 

 

We currently offer thirteen tastefully decorated rooms or cottages.  No two rooms are alike.  Each room has a unique history, so we gave them names rather than numbers.   Our accommodations may include hot tubs, kitchenettes, private decks, porch swings and other such amenities. Some are handicapped accessible.  All have full private bathrooms and air conditioning.  We also provide a complementary bottle of wine at check-in (providing you are of legal age).  We will charge you a $5 deposit for your room key, which we will refund at the time you check out.  Check-in is at 3:00 p.m., and check-out is 11:00 a.m., unless you make other arrangements with us.   

We do not permit smoking in any of our rooms.  Dogs are permitted, with advance notice, in the Old Mill Loft, Brown Front, Wheeler Back and Wilkerson Back, for an additional $10 charge per pet per night.  If you intend to enjoy breakfast with us, you may purchase a "Bed & Breakfast Package" at $7.50/person, which will enable you to order any food and beverage from the regular breakfast menu (except for alcoholic beverages).  You may order the "Bed & Breakfast Package" at the time you book your room, or at check-in.  You may then present your coupon to your server at breakfast.        

To preserve the unique quality of this bucolic setting, none of our rooms have televisions, telephones, clocks or radios.  We feel that Story should be a place to avoid the stress and static of daily life.  Take off your wristwatch and switch to "Storytime."  Enjoy a walk in the garden or forest.  Clean out the spam from your in inbox upon your return to the office.

The Old Mill Loft

The loft of this historic 19th Century grain mill is a lovely, spacious cottage with a queen-sized bed, sitting area, and a bath with an enormous tub.  Guests enter the cottage through the Old Mill, past prohibition-era equipment that once served local moonshiners, and then upstairs into an open greenhouse.  We believe this to be the most unique overnight accommodation in Brown County.  $199.00.
