Each year, the MV Campground hosts a Cottage Tour. It is an annual event where people interested
in seeing the inside of a cottage pay $30 and are given access to
tour 5-6 cottages. This year’s tour was
on August 9th. Our cottage
was selected as one of the 5 cottages on the tour!
We spent several days spiffing up the place and hiding the “junk”. After some last-minute sweeping of the porch,
we were ready for guests. Interestingly,
we are not supposed to stay in the cottage while visitors tour it. There are docents upstairs and downstairs
that answer questions and provide information.
We did leave our guest book out for visitors to sign! Not everyone signed it but for those who did
(62), it was fun to read who went through our cottage and where they were from.

While we were out of our cottage, we were able to visit the
other cottages on the tour. It is so
interesting to see the construction of the cottages and how they are decorated.
After the tour was over, campgrounders would see us and comment on our cottage,
usually about the spiral staircase.
It was an honor to be selected this year and we were thrilled
to participate.
