About this property

Historic Farmhouse on 44 acres

Experience staying in a 200+ year old stone house on a 44 acre farm with a rippling creek to unwind beside. There are two houses, two barns, a shop and other miscellaneous buildings on the property. The host family lives in the second house. So if you need anything we are just a few steps away and glad to help! A short walk across an historical stone bridge will take you to the Green Dragon Farmers Market (open Fridays only) where you will experience many different cultures all together at one place.
This house was built many years ago when they often made the steps to the stairs short and steep. This house is no exception. If you have trouble with steep stairs this may not be the most practical place for you.

About the host

Hosted by Tonya Hoover

Host profile image
Our family of 6 lives a few feet from the guest house. We would enjoy having you come for a stay. Welcome!

Why they chose this property

Come enjoy a peek back in time as you explore the old buildings on our 44 acre farm. An old tobacco barn, corn crib shed, and bank barn. There is a pasture and a creek to enjoy. Many fun hours have been spent there. You're welcome to enjoy it also but at your own risk.

What makes this property unique

Come relax and enjoy watching sheep grazing in the pasture, chickens pecking for food, listen to the birds chirping and many more sights and sounds. If you're outdoors sitting on the rocker you may even have a friendly cat come and curl up on your lap if you allow her to.
Bikes, a kayak and canoes are also available for your use (at your own risk). Come and enjoy nature in a private setting!
