I am a mom of four teenagers. As a family, we enjoy sharing our beautiful home with guests from around the world. We take pride in the home we have to offer. This home is a lesson in teaching our children responsibility. They play a role in managing every aspect of the property from mowing grass, cleaning the home and paying the bills.

We look forward to sharing this gorgeous home with you. It is our goal to make your stay memorable.

Look forward to seeing you soon!

Why they chose this property

Whispering Meadow has an interesting history. The original owners built the home as a vacation retreat. One owner studied meadows and leaf peepers while the other owner wrote speeches for Ronald Reagan. As second owner, we have maintained the integrity of the field study by making the meadows a protected wildlife habitat. Our children have created trails to walk and enjoy the Mystical island situated between the home and the Shaver's Fork River.

Whispering Meadow has the most perfect of scenery. One can sit on the front and gaze at the mountain view while taking in the gorgeous meadow wildflowers. The yard is manicured and kept natural. The back contains the estuary and a mystical island that take one to the Shaver's Fork River.

What makes this property unique

River, Meadow, Mountains, Goregous skyline for star gazing, estuary of waterfowl. Perfect launch for all forms of outdoor activity. Guests may register for summer tubing trips . Tubes and gear serviced by Shaver's Fork Adventures. This service is provided to our guests and is a unique opportunity. The land is abundant with wildlife and is a protected wildlife habitat.
