The property itself is as beautiful as it is peaceful. Inside the cabin, every single thoughtful, tiny thing you could need is provided. The room temp and the furniture is very cozy. Outside, we were greeted and kept company by the most friendly animals! Turkeys, chickens, rabbits, and even the family’s dog made an appearance! Overall, the atmosphere was super cozy and calm and the entire property was spotless & cared for. We will absolutely be going back!

I was so impressed with this property. I cannot say how much fun we had with the host his animals, the beautiful, beautiful room we stayed in. We had actually food for breakfast that they provided we had water. They gave us a bottle of wine. This was by far the funnest place. I’ve stayed in in a long time. Thank you so much. We will definitely be back.

We are repeat guests, as this is our second Thanksgiving weekend staying here in Brierfield Cottages! This was a much anticipated getaway for us. What a treat to feed domesticated birds and lop eared bunnies right at our door! The cottages are so relaxing and comfortable with many extras added by the hosts! We would highly recommend anyone to stay here! We just love it!
