The Story

Grandma Viola's Chalet

This chalet was Grandma Viola's, and it shows — in the best way. The orange carpet she picked out in 1974 is still here. The bunny ear TV still works. The quilts are stacked on the beds exactly as she left them. Nobody updated the wallpaper because nobody needed to.

Granny's Hideaway didn't try to be retro. It just never stopped being Viola's cabin.
