Awesome Weekend

My family and I loved the house, the property and the area. We had plenty of room inside and out. There were groomed walking trails that everyone loved. We hope to stay again next year.

Holiday stay

We enjoyed our stay in the spacious and comfortable farmhouse. There was a dusting of snow, and a walk on the property was magical. Cute downtown with pretty holiday lights.

Wonderful Thanksgiving

Our family gathered at the River Raisin Farm for the week of Thanksgiving. It was an ideal setting for the holiday. We particularly enjoyed the large, well-equipped kitchen and the dining room, with a fireplace, that easily sat eight of us. Took many long hikes with our dogs on the lovely trails. A memorable Thanksgiving indeed.

charming country farmhouse

We loved our stay at this charming country farmhouse! Beautiful old shade trees with lots of outdoor space to roam around on. We made full use of the fire pit and grill and enjoyed the wonderfully starlight nights. We even picked a few peaches right off the tree- may be some of the best peaches we have ever had.
