Gotz the woodcutter lives with Louis in the forest southeast of the player's farm. If the player visits Gotz while he is inside his home, Gotz will give the player several options for house expansions, upgrades and building materials. Many of Gotz's upgrades are useful, and the house expansions are mandatory if the player wishes to get married. The Woodcutter's House is open during the week from 9am (or 11am) to 5pm. Gotz visits Harris on Saturdays, and is never home on Sundays.
