Quiet weekend

Property was generally as described, peaceful & a good place to get away from all the craziness of life. The firepit was very large with ample space for a great bonfire. Overall, we would recommend this rental to anyone looking to relax.

Another Wonderful Stay

This was our second time renting this peaceful, beautiful, renovated farmhouse. The house is so spacious, nicely decorated, filled with charm, and has everything you will need for a relaxing stay.

Beautiful

The home was beautiful and easy to check in. The stairs to the upstairs bedrooms are a little steep so my uncle slept downstairs on the couch. The enclosed patio is just perfect for coffee/wine sitting for a nice visit. We loved our stay and you will too.

Peaceful Farmhouse

We had a wonderful, relaxing time at this charming, renovated farmhouse. The setting is very peaceful, great for long walks, and filled with a large variety of birds and wildlife to enjoy. All of the rooms are quite spacious and beautifully decorated, and the kitchen is filled with all the essentials for cooking meals. We hope to return next year!

White County Stay

Great little house to stay at! Owner’s instructions were super easy to accommodate. I would just suggest a deep clean of the grill and stove, when we used them, they were pretty dirty making the grill hard to use and the house smoky when we used the oven

Cute farmhouse

Very clean and nicely appointed house. For those with older folks staying-the stairs were steep and the railing wobbled. I didn't understand that all three bedrooms were connected upstairs so less privacy than expected.

Farmhouse Getaway

Beautifully remodeled farmhouse with enough beds for 8 people to sleep comfortably. Large living room with bonus enclosed front porch. All the furnishings and kitchen appliances and utensils we needed. A great place for our whole family to be together. Only downside is that there’s only one bathroom. But we made it work.

Tranquil retreat

Amazing home with all the amenities. Plenty of property to walk around, excellent fire pit for bonding and chatting or relaxing and taking in the sounds of nature with subtle sounds of babbling waters that border the property. Inside the home is spacious with great beds!! A++ I would recommend for anybody looking for a peaceful getaway! Seamless experience with property owners. Made the stay even more care free, we will return! Thank you.

Short stay

House itself was nice and clean however the upstairs was a bit hot and the linen in the downstairs bedroom smelled old n mildew like and the location was a bit further out in the country then I liked but the listing did say secluded so I guess I should’ve expected that. Overall though it was a nice spacious house with nice appliances and really nice plush towels.

Over priced

We were traveling to visit family. The house is in a great location! We were surprised at the house , it has some details that on are not on the listing. The 2 bedrooms upstairs are conjoined rooms and the stairs are so steep that it’s dangerous for older folks and children. We did enjoy our stay despite the mice we had running around our kitchen leaving droppings everywhere….
