Such a great stay. Only regret is not staying on site more and getting to know Carol and David. They sound like amazing people and hosts. Beautiful and quiet place. I slept like a CHAMP! Awesome scenic drive to several charming communities. Hope to come back for some R&R sometime.

Best little get away

My husband and I love visiting Dave and Carol‘s place this time we got to meet all of the fun animals and enjoy fresh chicken, eggs, and goose egg! They are so welcoming and have a sweet little place to stay while we are skiing. We look forward to staying again.

This was my 2nd time staying here & I'm already looking forward to going back. It's so nice to stay at such a beautiful farm with all the animals. I love sitting out under the pergola listening to the chickens & geese with the occasional braying of the donkeys. When I'm able to drag myself away from this most relaxing setting, that feeling of serenity extends to the apartment itself. It's so light & airy & quite sun-filled on the nice days. My last full day there, it rained hard all day so I stayed in, read a book, & baked cookies. The sound of the rain on the roof was mesmerizing & gave me the feeling of being snugly wrapped in a wonderful cocoon. The farmhouse is so homey & comfortable and Carol & David are the best hosts you could ever hope to have. I truly enjoyed every conversation I had with them. Such nice people!!

Pleasant stay within a short drive of Okemo. The linens had a heavy dousing from the dryer sheets, but otherwise was perfect.

Girls weekend on a farm

This place was absolutely lovely! My best friend and I stayed here the first weekend in August.we really enjoyed our stay… The space offers a lot of room and a full kitchen. The owners were extremely kind and provided water bottles, fresh eggs, and a complementary bottle of Chardonnay for our stay here. They also introduced us to the animals at the farm, which was lovely… The donkeys are so nice! Overall, we had a great time reconnecting with nature while still being in a good area to drive to ski resorts to do a summer lift activity. We definitely would love to come back!

Check-in was easy, with very complete advance instructions from our hosts. We had a wonderful stay. The apartment is spacious and in a beautiful location. The kitchen is nicely set up for use. The farm fresh eggs in the fridge made for two delicious breakfasts, and we very much enjoyed our gracious hosts’ tour of the working farm behind the house. An excellent place to spend a weekend. We recommend it highly!

Excellent views, quiet, VERY CLEAN amd comfortable. One set of stairs. "The journey is part of the adventure" driving up the mountain led my imagination back 100 years. Exposed hand hewn beams indicated age of original building. This location is not in town, so pick up your groceries (if you're planning to make meals) en route. Coffee, cream, eggs, wine provided.
