LIFE AT THE END OF A DIRT ROAD IN CENTRAL MINNESOTA

In yesterday's post, I shared Dick's and my outing to the two hamlets (two additional hamlets are in the planning stages) in the community of Serenbe 35 miles southwest of Atlanta. There was so much to see at every bend, so this is part two of our adventure which covers our two-night stay in the Inn at Serenbe.

L – We stayed in the 1905 farmhouse located in the photo's background. Our breakfast was served in the building in the foreground. R- Several cottages on the property are available for overnight stays, as well. Additionally, overnight and extended stays can be arranged in the Serenbe community (see yesterday's post).

L - our server each morning at breakfast R - Blue-Eyed Daisy Bakeshop dinner specials where we ate lunch and dinner in the community of Serenbe. Let's be honest here. The made-from-scratch, fresh from Serenbe's organic farm food was so amazing that we stopped by for mid-morning and mid-afternoon goodies, too.

Blue eyed daisy tuna salad plate

This simple lunch was artfully arranged on the plate by encircling the potato and tuna salad with raw rings of onion. Even the crackers were placed just so.

    Oh, you must have been right in your element here. The farmhouse, the grounds with pecan trees, farm gates and fences, a little rustic shed, and the made-from-scratch food (I like their menu board you shared here)…I can see this being a repeat visit for both of you.

    The vision of our bed and breakfast has, from the start, been much like Serenbe’s nature-inspired, repurposed focus. So, yes, we felt at home… and at peace. Recently, we purchased an old garden gate that now swings on two wooden fence posts inviting visitors to stroll through an arbor that we built from twigs. As we worked together, Dick commented, “We have created our own little Serenbe.”
