Living Areas
Who we are
We purchased Topnotch when our children were 9
and 11 because we wanted a place where our family
could be together but still have plenty of room.  
Topnotch offers the best of all worlds with a main
floor bedroom, fireplace and 2 conversation areas;
games and hot tub on the first floor (along with a
bedroom) and two bedrooms tucked quietly away on
the top floor. ( Mom and Dad make good use of these
at nap time.)

This place is meant to accommodate large groups
and has a kitchen that lives up to the task.  Plenty of
counterspace makes meal preparation easy even as
more than one cook bustles about rustling up dinner.  
We keep the cabin stocked with all the normal stuff,
plus wine glasses, extra small appliances, usual
(and some unusual) spices, a few staples that are
sometimes forgotten,  firewood and frankly anything
else we can think of.  We want our guests to enjoy the
cabin as much as we do.
Living in a tree house
It's hard to describe the feel of this cabin but the guest
who described it as a luxury tree house was pretty
close.  Topnotch perches on the side of a hill covered
in trees, so when you look out the windows you get the
feeling you're floating in the trees.

If you step out onto the deck surrounding this floor, you
are eye to eye with the middle of the trees where birds
and small animals live.  Even during the hardest part
of winter, we often put out bird seed and are amazed
at the number and various different types of birds that
come to feed.
