🌍💙 Today is International Day of Charity 💙🌍

At Laurel Oaks Estate, we believe kindness and generosity are the roots that make communities strong. Whether it’s lending a hand to a neighbor, sharing a meal, supporting a local cause, or simply offering a smile, every act of charity—big or small—makes a difference. ✨

As a family-run business, we’re grateful for the love and support we’ve received, and we’re reminded today of how important it is to give that same love back to others. 💕

Let’s celebrate by doing something kind today—because charity isn’t just about giving money, it’s about giving heart.

🌿🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ Colin and I love taking walks on our trails here at Laurel Oaks, and every time we go, we find something new to appreciate. From the wildlife that calls this place home to the peaceful beauty of the trees and fields, it’s a reminder of why we created this little escape. ✨

I thought I’d share a few snapshots of the nature and animals you might spot when you visit Laurel Oaks. 🦋🐇🌲

Me: don’t put your weight on that. It’s not stable.

Pete: neither are you but you’re still here.

Me: 🙄

New fly going up at Big Bear!

✨ Glamping vs. Camping ✨

⛺ Camping: Sleeping bags, bug spray, and hoping the air mattress doesn’t deflate.
🌿 Glamping: Cozy bed, fresh linens, and the sounds of nature without the sore back.

🔥 Camping: Cooking over the fire and crossing your fingers dinner doesn’t burn.
🍷 Glamping: Fire pit vibes with a glass of wine, snacks, and food cooked on a gas grill.

🚿 Camping: Bathing in the creek (if you’re brave enough).
🚿 Glamping: A hot shower waiting just steps away.

At Laurel Oaks Estate, we say… why rough it when you can relax in comfort and still soak up the great outdoors? 🌌✨

Yesterday we gave the cabin a little TLC with a fresh coat of stain, and WOW what a difference it made. The wood is shining again and it feels like the whole space got a new life.

(And yes… caught sitting down on the job 🤣 Pete never misses a chance to poke fun at me for that one!)
