About Crafty Chics
-
Do you offer guided workshops, or can we craft on our own?"Every stay at Crafty Chics Cottage Retreat is self serve - meaning you are free to pursue your own creative passion! We supply the space and the tools, and from there, you call the shots. If you want to have a super seasoned crafter come in to lead a class though, we are happy to connect you with our friends at The Crafty Scrapper. They're pretty great, and they can show you how to make some really awesome projects.
-
Are there spa services available?Yes! If you and your squad want to pamper yourselves, we can arrange for an excellent massage therapy team to visit the retreat, and provide in-home massage therapy. Trust us when we say that a day of crafting, hot tubs, and massage is pretty much as good as it gets. Contact us for details!
