Jody and Sheila could not have been more accommodating!
We found this property while looking for a last-minute fall getaway from the Florida heat. While I was initially hesitant that the property was not in the heart of "stuff," this wound up being a tremendous advantage-- a beautiful place to stay that provided privacy and nature all around us, while still a short drive from all we wanted to see and experience!
Jody patiently answered all my questions as to the best way to find the "full fall experience," and he and his wife greeted us with a smile when we arrived. The barn could not be more charming- modern farmhouse chic with romantic rustic touches. Beautiful decor- both new and antique, and did I mention the privacy?
They graciously stocked the barn with drinks and snacks, and we took advantage of the grill out back and made almost all our meals in-house. While we did not have a full size fridge, the smaller size unit, along with the countertop pellet ice machine worked just fine for us. We had plenty of counter space to work with, and lovely dishes to prep and serve upon. We even made s'mores over the fire pit one night!
Be sure to spend some time walking the trails on the property. We saw some great wildlife and it was virtually impossible to get lost. We were able to bring our long-haired mini dachshund, Henna, with us, and she was in doggie smell heaven! Oh, and stars upon stars upon stars in the clear October skies with no light pollution...simply gorgeous.
Thank you thank you thank you, Jody and Sheila, for the beautiful accommodations. Everyone that I've showed pictures to had the same reaction: "WOW! Where is this place? I need to go there! " Cheers!
