Washington Cottage

Set along the Estate’s western edge near Groom’s Cottage, Washington Cottage offers a refined and private retreat inspired by the legacy of George Washington, who shared a close relationship with Colonel Joshua Fry—one of Meander’s earliest stewards and a defining figure in its history. This connection grounds the cottage in a deeper sense of place, where American heritage and timeless hospitality converge.
