Wonderful place to stay while visiting family! My Son-in-Law USA history buff and enjoyed the house. My grand son enjoyed looking for farm animals. And we all enjoyed the spacious home.

Great property

We were in the area for a family gathering. Perfect for 2 areas of sleeping and several areas to hang out and relax. Owners were fantastic with farm tours and communication. Would absolutely stay there again.

Very kind and accommodating experience. The home is chock full of interest and amenities at every turn, and there are many opportunities to latch onto a real farm experience outside the home. Plenty of critter friends add to the warmth.

We had a wonderful time staying in this lovely house and thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful setting. We had a small family gathering which the multiple bedrooms and library/playroom accommodated very well. Check-in was easy, kitchen -- in fact the entire house is well appointed (with a surprise gift of cookies and freshly picked squash from the garden), and the host couldn't have been more helpful. Excellent experience!

Country Retreat

I stayed at this beautiful property during a recent work trip to nearby Hillsboro. The house was the perfect place to relax and unwind after a stressful day. I appreciated all the extra special touches and attention to small details of the hosts. These things made my stay extra enjoyable.

Boxwood House is a beautiful home in a bucolic setting, perfect for the traveler seeking a peaceful, relaxing, and quiet respite only occasionally interrupted by the joyful song of many bird varieties. When we arrived, the home was wonderfully cool, which we all appreciated due to the extreme heat outside. It is very tastefully decorated, with all of the modern conveniences delightfully mingled with the charm of a bygone era. With comfortable furniture throughout and plenty of books and games, one will readily be swept away from the distractions of the world. An unexpected surprise of delicious eggs from their own chickens and irresistible homemade coconut chocolate chunk bars awaited us in the amazing kitchen. This home is well loved and cared for, as demonstrated by its exceptional cleanliness and order, which is important to us. The beds were also very comfortable, ensuring a perfect night's sleep. The attention to detail and thoughtful curation of items a guest may need or desire were noted and greatly appreciated. The coffee bar, game room, and porch swing are extra bonus hits for young and not so young. Heidi and her family are lovely hosts, quick to respond to inquiries with graciousness. Please don't hesitate to book Boxwood House; you will be thankful you did.

Perfect Weekend Retreat

It was such a joy staying at Heidi’s Carriage House Farm. The place was perfectly clean and comfortably slept our family of 4, and we could have easily made it 6. The hosts generously provided outdoor games (cornhole + bocce), firewood, a s’more pack, and family games - all the ingredients for a great family weekend. Honestly can’t count how many times we all said “isn’t this place perfect?” Thank you for the memorable stay!

More then a carriage house

We were looking for a little farm family experience for our youngest ones 3rd birthday, and our stay did not disappoint! We arrived at the carriage house, and were greeted by the hosts family, as they were enjoying their beautiful outdoor 57acre oasis. The entire family was extremely warm, and kind. I had asked in advance about little “chores” my kids could help with, Heidi (one of the host) was extremely helpful in coordinating, and the next morning my kids helped bring the cows to the pastures to graze, collect chicken eggs, and also snuggle and help care for puppies that were born a few months before. Later on, their eldest son took us on a foraging walk, finished with mint tea with mint we collected. My eldest also fished in their pond with another one of their kids, they were all so hospitable! We were also surprised by a little s’mores basket for that evening! The next morning I received a text asking if my kids would like to take a little hayride around the property! My only complaint was that we weren’t there long enough. As for the space, it was absolutely beautiful, and there were additions made, so the place was huge! There was more then enough room for our family of 5. The area is also in the arc of the Appalachian mountains, so if you love the outdoors, there are great hikes nearby as well. We will cherish these memories forever, and are so grateful for our stay.
