My husband Travis and I are both contractors and do it yourself type of people. We love creating as we work and taking forgotten properties and making them beautiful again.

Our travel style is a little different. We love discovering new places and finding adventure, but we’re not fans of the crowds and chaos that often come with them. That’s why we create stays that feel calm, comfortable, and intentionally off the beaten path—spaces we’d want to escape to ourselves. If you’re looking for a local getaway where you can slow down, explore, and truly unwind, you’ll feel right at home at any of our "Beyond the Path" properties.

Everything we create is functional, comfortable, livable, connecting and incredibly unique. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
