Children benefit more from trips than toys? Of course, they do. Start planning that vacation/staycation now. Winter weather? You still have plenty to do. Spend the night (kids love the upstairs loft), cozy up by the fire and play a board game, ice skate at one of our outdoor rinks (free skates), go sledding at Hixon or Myrick park, check out the Children's Museum... You can reserve directly with us by calling 608 797 6457 or reserve and check availabilty at www.airbnb.com/h/stonesthrow

For the next holiday or birthday, instead of shopping for toys, consider spending that money on a family vacation.

Do not rent anything off of Craigslist! Just found Stone's Throw Cottage listed on Craigslist by someone we don't know. They used all our photos and description from the Airbnb listing and even went as far as sending someone a rental application. Thankfully the potential renters reached out to us before sending this criminal any money. Hoping that no one fell for this scam.

The monarchs have returned. I found two caterpillars on milkweed and brought them inside to complete their metamorphosis. They placed their chrysalis' right next to each other and after 10 days emerged one day apart. Had fun showing our guests & releasing the butterflies.
