Peace and quiet

Beautiful and relaxing cabin on a hill overlooking a valley. Clean and quiet. The kids loved being greeted by a friendly pig. We also caught some fish in the lake.Definitely recommended.

Simply Wonderful!

We chose to stay here for a family getaway to relax, hike, and see some fall foliage. It was perfect! Very quiet and truly unplugged. The lodging was top notch and very comfortable; It was a very spacious/accommodating cabin with that rustic feel we were hoping for but with all of the modern day amenities. There wasn’t anything we needed that wasn’t already provided. Our children loved running around the farm and seeing all of the animals… a bald eagle, turkey vultures, cattle, deer, working dogs, and even one very cute pig who enjoyed some petting and some food scraps (apparently he was in a tiff with the other pig and retreated largely to our part of the farm lol). All whilst the grandparents enjoyed rocking on the porch with the most amazing view of the mountains or sitting by the fireplace. We were even lucky enough to get a bit of rain and see a rainbow appear right over the pond. The farm is vast and beautiful with plenty to see and do. Luke was very hospitable and introduced himself after happening upon us during a walk. He pointed out good places to visit on the farm and even gave us a short tour. We felt very safe our entire stay. The working dogs were out on the farm and on the job! It was actually quite cool to hear them baying far off in the distance. Definitely would go back. It’s been my husband’s favorite family trip so far.
