for four people to share with 2 sets of bunk beds. There is one
room with 2 twin beds for 2 people to share and a room with three
twin beds for 3 people to share. There is closet space for you to
store your bags.
Our flannel sheets, cozy quilts, down comforters and goose down
pillows make all of the beds very comfortable. If you have any allergies
let us know and we will make sure that you get a foam pillow with
a hypoallergenic cover.

There will always be something cooking and snacks and desserts will
be served 24 hours a day (not the best time to be dieting!!) If
you have any requests we will do whatever we can to make you happy!

What do I bring?
1. Warm slippers, comfy
sweats and cozy jammies. This weekend is all about scrappin and
being pampered! No need for makeup and getting dressed up!
2. Bring a swim suit for the hot tub….The hot tub under the
stars is a must at the end of a long day scrapbooking!
3. Sneakers or hiking boots for taking a “fresh air”
walk. The house is on over an acre so you never even have to leave
the property to get in a great walk.
4. Bring comfy clothes and a jacket, it does cool off in the evenings
and snows in the late fall and winter.
5. Personal toiletries. Scrap-N-Away provides you with shampoo,
conditioner, hair dryers, soaps and lotions.
As far as scrapbooking
supplies, take a look at the list
of supplies we have for you to use, then bring what you may
want to use for the weekend. It is always best to have your pages
planned out ahead of time, but if you need help organizing we can
help you with that just give us a call ahead of time. Don’t
forget your photos, album and adhesives!

Do you teach any classes?
Why yes we do! You will
have the opportunity to take part in any of the technique demonstrations
that are taught at Scrap-N-Away. You are not required to take part
if you do not wish to. Demonstrations will range from Walnut Inking/distressing
and collage style pages, to Holiday card making and even Paper Piecing
classes. There are so many different types classes that we guarantee
there will be something that interests you (while at the retreat,
you may have a “how did they do that” thought. Please
be sure to ask and we can teach you how.) There is no additional
charge for the make and takes or technique demonstrations.

What kind of food do you serve?
Lots of hearty, warm,
stick-to-your-bones food. It just kind of goes with the feel of
the house and the mountains. Home made soups and hot sandwiches
for lunch. Lasagna and other casseroles for dinner and of course
fresh out of the oven brownies and cookies (is your mouth watering
yet?) Special accommodations will be made for guests with food allergies,
just let us know ahead of time. Oh and I forgot to mention….chocolate
around the clock!

for everyone. Please feel free to bring your own favorite “cropping
music” to share.

the grounds and never even have to leave the property.
