The property was beautiful, clean, and pet-friendly. The owners were so kind and accommodating! Our 8 year old loved the Murphy bed and especially the horses. We would absolutely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Kimberly Patrick

Host profile image
Hello everyone. My Husband and I are so glad you checked in on our Bunkhouse. We are both from this area. We have always lived in the country, since being Children. we are avid Horseback riders, so there are often Horses on this property. We are so appreciative of the private, quiet life, we hope we can offer a restful, enjoyable stay for anyone looking to leave the hustle of the city behind for a while. So, with that, Welcome to the country.

Why they chose this property

Farm fields surround the property. You can almost hear the Corn grow during the Summer. If you bring along your fury friend, we have a great Hay field to walk around. Quiet country roads to bike ride or walk on. You will hear the screech of Hawks, and it's not uncommon to see Eagles in the fields, flying over head. I'm looking forward to sharing this beautiful area with you.

What makes this property unique

We are very versatile at our farm. Growing up in the country has it's advantages. We are familiar with 4 wheelers, Side by Sides, Horseback riders, Fishing boats Horse trailers etc. We have additional parking for longer trucks and trailers. We will also be offering Horse stalls for those who need a place that is safe and accommodating for the Equine community.
