Thank you very much. It was a pleasure to have you. We hope you'll come back and stay with us again sometime.
We’ve stayed multiple times and love it. Large house located on a working dairy farm with wonderful owners. Plenty of space for a big family, and has an ice cream shop to boot!Staff at the farm couldn’t have been nicer, and actually invited us to “assist” with milking the cows. Great experience for teens.

I set up this stay for five of my coworkers and they all greatly enjoyed their time at the house. Plenty of room and amenities for all, and a pool that came in clutch for the 90 degree days!

Good to know! Thank you and we appreciate you visiting us again and look forward to the next!
Everything about the house and property was exactly as described. We had the best time there with plenty of space to spread out. It was very clean and comfortable. The kids had so much fun exploring and they visited the ice cream shop everyday that it was open.We will definitely stay here again.

From the owner: "Thank you for your kind review. It was great having you and the children - we hope to see you again."
We had a fabulous week in this beautiful home. The grandkids loved the pool and the farm animals! There is plenty of space inside with a nice kitchen, different sitting areas, and the bedrooms/beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed the outside space with a huge area to play various activities. HIghly recommend!
Highly recommend this property! House is exactly as advertised. Plenty of room for our group. The pool was fabulous. Kiddos loved watching the cows and ducks. The store with ice cream was a huge hit. The property owner Sandy was very sweet and checked on us to make sure everything was going well. We would definitely stay again.
Loved the history of this farmhouse, being on the dairy farm, the animals, and of course their ice cream. It's close to everything. The hosts were extremely responsive to all questions and small incidents we encountered.
Very enjoyable weekend. Summer coming to an end so crisp mornings and pool water a little cold.
Farm animals fun for children’s entertainment.
Host was a great historian for the area.

Quick visit with Family
The Farmhouse was so quaint and charming. We loved it! There is so much room and we all had our own space to relax in. Sharon was so sweet she had a fresh gallon of milk and a dozen eggs in the fridge for us when we arrived. I definitely want to come back and visit in the summer.

From the owner: "Thank you for your nice review. Please do come back in the summer - the pool will be open and the trees will be in bloom! It is a beautiful time of year to visit the farm".
Beautiful location with plenty of space for my adult children and their significant others to hang out. The pool was great, plenty of grassy area for playing ball, large kitchen for late night gathering, and charming old house that’s decorated so cute! Owner was easy to connect with and welcomed us to walk around the farm. Bathrooms are old/original so we needed to adjust how we use modern appliances, but not a big deal. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

Thank you for your nice review! It was fun having you. Please come back again! Don Fish
We loved our stay at the farm. The house had plenty of room for 6 of us. We relaxed, we enjoyed the property, and we loved the ice cream!! Sandy was extremely accommodating, the house was clean and had everything we needed. Will definitely be back!
Thank you!
We had a wonderful time at the farmhouse. Sharon left fresh milk and eggs for us in the fridge. The house is big and we all had places where we could wind down and relax. The property is picturesque.. it’s so beautiful and peaceful as you drive into the farm on the winding road. We will definitely stay again when visiting CT.
Our brother-in-law passed away unexpectedly. The house was perfect for us to gather to plan services and be with each other. It was also 10 minutes from our sister's home in Coventry. The service, grounds, home, and farm were wonderful. I highly recommend it. Paul.

perfect❣️
AMAZING! we were searching for a site for my daughters very small, intimate wedding…this was EXACTLY what we were hoping for and more! and the Fish family are just that…family! so nice and there if you need them. My daughter is already talking about planning return anniversary trips❣️
This property was perfect for our get together. People were coming from various East Coast states, so it was easy to get to from the airport and the highways. The house itself was spacious with lots of places for people to be together or to be by themselves. It was clean, had everything we needed, and quiet. The farm with its animals and the farm store with its ice cream added that special touch that we all enjoyed. Easy contact with hosts also.
