What makes this property unique
What makes this space truly unique is its story. This cozy apartment was thoughtfully converted from a working 4-H shop where pigs and goats were once raised, giving it a one-of-a-kind blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. You’ll feel the character of its past while enjoying a clean, comfortable, and functional living space.
Located on open property, guests can enjoy peaceful surroundings, fresh air, and a slower pace that’s hard to find in typical rentals. It’s the perfect mix of country living and convenience—whether you’re passing through, visiting nearby attractions, or just looking for a quiet place to unwind.
