The Caretaker’s Cottage

A year-round sanctuary for hospitality, support, and administrative care.

Comfort in Every Season

While our gardens offer respite in the warmer months, the Caretaker’s Cottage ensures that Rest-Stop-Ranch remains a warm, welcoming destination year-round. This intimate building serves as our indoor gathering space, offering the comforts of home with full professional accessibility.

Cottage Features

♿

Zero-Threshold Access

Designed for seamless entry. There are no steps or lips at the door, making it effortlessly accessible for wheelchairs and walkers.

🔥

The Hearth

Our central gathering space features a cozy pellet stove, providing warmth and atmosphere during our Winter Bonfires and cold-weather support groups.

☕

Hospitality Kitchen

A small kitchen area allows us to serve hot coffee, tea, cocoa, and light refreshments to our guests during programs.

🚻

Accessible Restroom

Clean, private, and fully accessible facilities are available indoors for guests attending Cottage programs.

Our Headquarters

The Cottage is the heartbeat of our daily operations. In addition to hosting guests, it serves as the Administrative Office for Rest-Stop-Ranch.

Whether you are meeting with Chaplain Mary for spiritual care or stopping by to say hello to our staff during an event, the Cottage is where our mission is managed.
