About the host
Hosted by David

Retired custom homebuilder. I re-built this old farmhouse into a custom home from the ground up. The only thing remaining was the four walls and the roof. after building 600 homes I built this one just for me and my taste and I think you will like what I did. I always wanted a sink in my bedroom, so each room has it's own vanity and sink.
You also have access to over 280 acres to hike and explore.
