My friend Annee Reynolds has the greenest thumb I know. She also has a beautiful greenhouse in her backyard where she hosts special gatherings of friends and those that want to spend time together while getting their hands in the soil. 🌱 🪴

She taught my kids about succulents, how to plant them, love them and care for then. Then she sent them home with armfuls of fresh cut herbs from her fairy garden. They loved it!!

Annee is willing to host our Home Away from Home guests! PM her directly if you are interested in a unique and green experience that you wont forget 😊

As a special gift, the first guests staying at our airbnb, will receive a gift from one of my favorite local vendors, rSalon https://rsalon.com . We hope that you will enjoy pampering yourself!

Looking to pamper yourself in a Spa locally? rSalon grants the perfect, peaceful spa/salon experience in the neighborhood! The rSalon team includes specialists for hair, nails facials and massage. They also carry a full line of Aveda products, which are my absolute favorite products!

Not to mention, all of the waste from the spa is recycled or up-cycled instead of ending in a landfill….I feel even better when I know that!

Thank you for visiting our airbnb and supporting local businesses 🙏🏾 thank you rSalon for these wonderful gifts!

Looking for vegan grubs downtown (even though your whole family looks for meat as the main? 🤣) Try my fav - The Red Fern….all members, eating meaty or not, will love it. They have a vegan version or the trash plate - it is Amaze-balls. Kids had vegan macncheese nachos and chocolate mint oreo cake. The man had the vegan trash plate and vegan cheese cake…. I might have eaten most of that cheese cake 😂…and some of the trash plate. So is marriage.

For the real “meat eating” version of Rochester’s best trash plate head to Nick Tahou’s http://garbageplate.com

Grimes Glen is one of our all time favs and about 1 hour away from the house.

Inside deets: Water shoes or crocs are recommended for walking in the water! You are not overly exposed to the sun so it’s great on a hot day. There is a water fall at the end, some folks like to have a swim! Little ones that cannot swim need to have swimmies or have an adult nearby! Happy Hiking and creatire spotting!
