The property was beautiful and peaceful. It was just what I needed for a relaxing weekend getaway. The dogs were friendly and the goats were fun to watch.

Amazingly clean. Fun farm atmosphere. The bedroom is up a ladder, and watch your head the bedroom has a low ceiling. Would 100% stay again. Bobbie (the cat), the polar bear dog and the goats were great.

We had the sweetest little stay at this bunk house. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a peaceful escape. The check-in greeter (the sweetest little tabby cat) & the incredible security system (2 gorgeous dogs who guarded our door all night) were the absolute highlight of my stay here.

We had a great stay. The owners had great hospitality. It was cozy and accommodating. The temperatures were dropping low and the owner brought an extra heater for us. The barn bunkie was very clean and in a location close to the wineries we love.

A quaint little Bunk House on a farm. Nice view near the horse pasture, horses, goats, dogs, and cats. Lovely small raised bed tomato garden next to the cabin. I would definitely stay again.

A very easy and delightful stay. Everything was very comfortable and clean. Loved getting to watch the horses graze, have the company of a sweet cat on the porch, and the occasional visit from one of the friendly dogs. Great spot to watch the sunset and then see moon light the field. The coffee was so good, too! Air conditioning worked perfectly when needed.

I had so much fun this week hanging out with all the animals! The bunkie had everything I needed- including a small plug-in electric burner to cook on (i didnt know this beforehand so it’s good to note that you can cook here!) I used most of my time exploring the area and visiting nearby state parks. All around beautiful visit, i will be back!!

I wanted to experience what is it like to live in a tiny house. At this property I finally got a chance to do that. The house has peaceful surroundings and everything you need for a couple inside. Just don’t forget your own spoons and forks. Beware of a ladder to the bedroom upstairs. If you are night traveler to a bathroom- it may become a hassle. Also, try not to bump your head in the bedroom. Me and my husband had wonderful stay in this place. I loved those cute, easy to open windows and a smell of fresh wood. The farm animals let us sleep in the morning and even rooster had forfeited his duty. Thank you for letting us spend time at your cute cozy place.

Bunkalicious!

It was absolutely perfect and I do not say that easily. I give l where appropriate but everything here was fantastic. The hosts were great. We were even invited to see their personalized fireworks display. The property is beautiful and we were surrounded by amazing animals: horses, goats, the friendliest dogs on earth and a spritely cat.We will be passing through again later in the week and we've booked another cabin. That says it all.
