It is also just a few minutes away from superbly groomed snowmobile and cross-country skiing trails for our winter loving enthusiasts! Recently renovated and updated, The Old House charm will find its way into your heart with custom made kitchen cabinets, island, and counter tops, bedside lamps with charging ports/outlets and fan/sound machines, and two comfy, cozy living spaces to lounge that could easily accommodate air mattresses for more sleeping room. If you're not out enjoying the quaint local businesses, waterfalls, or walking trails, cuddle up in front of the one of two TVs to stream your favorite movies. A full kitchen with all essentials (plates, bowls, silverware, pans, etc.) is available to create masterpiece meals or just microwave a bag of popcorn. All beds are made with comfy, cozy sheets and have plenty of blankets for those cold winter nights. There is a toddler bed and pack and play available for the kiddos, although the house is not baby proofed. The full bathroom showcases a deep, jetted tub to soothe away all worries and aches and you can wrap yourself in the provided towels when you are done. A laundry room with reliable washer and dryer is available for your convenience. So, whenever you are away from the comfort of your house, let The Old House be there to welcome you home!

Beautiful, comfortable and so welcoming

The property was perfect for our gathering- close enough to town for easy access but far enough away to be quiet and relaxing. The house itself was so charmingly decorated and all the personal touches that Shannon provided really made us feel welcomed and special. I highly recommend this property for a romantic getaway or a fun family vacation.

Perfectly decorated with multiple charming touches that truly personalized our visit. The outdoor space was perfect with lots of comfortable seating, a smokeless fire pit and plenty of dry firewood. Outdoor games for the kids were a nice touch. The kitchen had all of the dishes and appliances that we needed. The beds were comfortable and everything was exceptionally clean. The two sitting spaces were perfect for our multigenerational group. Great place to relax and chill while enjoying nature. We are playing on staying here again.

Hidden Farm Gem

The quintessential Farm home. This was a delightful home for the family as we explored the surrounding area. Off the beaten track with all the right amenities. Nothing fancy, but simple, welcoming with all the right amenities. Enjoyed a walk down the dirt road, beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Quite a delightful experience.

About the host

Hosted by Shannon Brege

Host profile image
My husband, Scott, and I have raised 6 daughters on the farm. We are family oriented, so it seemed only natural that we wanted to create a place where many fun memories could be made. All of the land that you can see is Brege land and we are so proud of it and so humbled by the blessings it has provided. In the past couple of years, we have been able to bring The Old House back to its former glory and with the help of Scott's sister and brother-in-law, Moltke Maize Maze was born! It is a corn maze that is right across the road in the fall. We hope our home gives you the same warm fuzzies it gives us and we truly hope you create lifetime memories just as we have.

Why they chose this property

As my husband's family had been farming for about 70 years when we got married, it seemed only right that we continue the tradition. Scott bought this property before we were married and it is what I came "home" to as a new wife. All of our children were raised here until we moved to the "main farm" in 2007. As our children are all grown and starting families of their own, we realized that this house holds so many cherished memories and in 2021, we started the process to bring the love back to it. Through countless donated hours of friends and family (not to mention our own), The Old House was brought back, even better, to the cozy little home we knew. And if you're wondering about the name of The Old House, it was a nickname the kids gave it when we moved to the main farm to differentiate between the two houses. It has been, and always will be The Old House....but in the most charming and loving of ways. We truly want OUR home to be YOUR home when you're away. Don't be afraid to flop on the couch and munch a bag of chips......don't worry about dirt being tracked in on muddy feet. Having 6 daughters in 8 1/2 years that are now grown and starting their own stories has taught us that time is but fleeting and meant to be enjoyed. So go ahead!!! Leave those crumbs and track those dirt piles in!!! Make as many memories while you can. They'll be time later for vacuums and brooms.

What makes this property unique

As you can obviously tell when you arrive, The Old House sits on many acres of farmland. The quietness and peacefulness fills your soul without you even realizing it. The 360 degree view from the top of the rolling hills is a hard one to beat. Warm, orange sunsets setting over fragrant hay fields with cotton candy clouds in the background cannot be rivaled. When you are here, time seems to stand still. When you are here, there is time to smell the roses. When you are here, you can play kickball outside until the crickets sing. When you are here, the sound of birds chirping and the wind through the grass becomes the lullaby you didn't know you were missing. When you are here, doors can be left unlocked and neighbors stop by for visits. When you are here, you are home! So, welcome! Welcome home to The Old House. :)
