“I feel thin. Sort of... stretched. Like butter scraped over too much bread.”

If this is you right now, you've come to the right place. We can't guarantee that a stay at our place is going to launch you into an epic journey, but in a world where all kinds of magic can happen, we aren't going to say it WON'T happen, either!
Blue Door Guest House is designed to be a place where very tired people can come and rest. The Camino de Santiago is a special place for us and this guest house is our version of a pilgrim’s albergue.
Something unique about our place - Blue Door Guest House was built and finished with inordinate amounts of sweat, love, intention and GIRL POWER! All are welcome, AND if you identify as female, know that this place has special juice and love for you. If you're in a point in your life where you need to do some overdue soul-searching, reconnect, mourn, regroup, get your mojo back, plan your exit strategy, connect with your Higher Power, sink into silence, start a new thing, remember yourself, hang with a beloved, be by yourself...this place was created especially for you and your journey.
BDGH is a tiny house that's been conceived, finished and decorated with an eye toward Latin America and with a high value placed on beauty, handiwork, rest, privacy, solitude. It's located on a centennial farm in a still-rural setting. There are many personal touches designed to make your stay in our semi-rustic space as comfortable as possible - memory foam mattresses, delicious linens, AC, ceiling fan, overflowing bookshelves, good pillows, lots of natural light, roomy three-season outdoor shower, a cozy place to sit and write while contemplating nature, mini fridge with a freezer big enough for ice cream, a wood burning stove.
Guest access
*This is a semi-rustic environment. If you are used to staying in hotels and require that level of amenities and comfort, we might not be a good fit for you.
While the house has electricity and hot water from an on-demand sink, there is no indoor shower. The compost toilet is housed in its own room and is virtually odorless. You will probably empty the toilet bucket at some point during your stay. Gloves are provided.
The private outdoor shower is available in the spring, summer and autumn. You’ll need to turn water and propane on in order for it to work. It is not functional after the first frost, when we turn the water off to avoid damaging pipes. During winter months, showers are available in the guest bath of the main house and are easily arranged. We also have passes to the local gym available.
Firewood is provided at no extra charge for bonfires and the wood stove. A propane grill and utensils are also provided. There are long metal grilling skewers for hot dogs/sausages/marshmallows over a bonfire.
All linens are provided.
*The guest house has a kitchenette that is equipped with a microwave and fridge, but no stove top or oven. We have an induction burner and pots/pans available by request.
Other things to note
Our guest house isn’t set up for longer term guests (limited kitchen, no laundry, etc) Our maximum amount of rental days at a time is 2 weeks.
