The hosts had excellent communication and accommodated us in so many different ways! This house was such a cool place with lots of room for our big family Christmas get together. Tons of places to sleep and lounge and eat at. Plus the property was gorgeous and spacious! We had a fantastic time and can’t wait to come back next year!

My family group of 11 spent a fantastic Thanksgiving holiday in this fun, quirky, wonderful house! We all had a blast cooking together, lounging in one of the 3 sitting areas, reading in one of the many little nooks and hiking the 20 acre property! The owners were also wonderful and so kind.

The only thing we didn't find in the kitchen that we needed was a rolling pin. We all enjoyed our time there. There was plenty of space so we didn't feel crowded, yet there was enough seating that all 17 of us could gather in one room.

We had the very best time. It was too cold to do some things but we made the very best of it. I loved how spacious the place was. I loved that this farm house is a conversation piece. Every room has a story. The owners are so awesome. Always respond within a few min. And always so nice. Thank you for having us.

Family Weekend

We had a great time during our stay. The Farmhouse accommodated all of family. There was enough space to enjoy spending time together but also places to go if some “quiet” times was needed. The property manager responded quickly for check-in and answered our questions promptly.

Quite & Beautiful

We had a family getaway and this property allowed plenty of room with beautiful scenery. A good time was had by all. Not too far from "civilization" but felt like escape from hustle & bustle.
