The “Milk House “is an apartment in a large retired dairy barn. My father ,Ron, created the apartment from the actual area that was once the milk house. The milk house of the barn is traditionally the area where the milk tank sits and also where the milking machines are cleaned and sanitized .
It sits on a beautiful lot with open fields, a small pond and trees behind it. The apartment Is a cozy escape, away from the hustle and bustle perfect for a couple or family . It has modern amenities, including WiFi , an open floor plan with nice sized kitchen for meals at home, that opens to the dining area and living room. There’s one large bedroom with a comfortable queen sized bed with a gel mattress.
It’s an easy drive from the quaint Village of Hamilton and Colgate University and a 30 min drive from the bustling town of Clinton, the home of Hamilton College.
Cold Spring Farm was a working dairy farm on 170 acres of farmland up until about 10 years ago . My Dad can never stay still and loved the views and rustic nature so he’s kept busy renovating the barn. The Milk House apartment was the center of activity housing the big milk holding tank , milking machines , and other equipment for milking the cows on the dairy farm. All that is gone now making way for a quaint 1 bedroom / 1 bath getaway in a rural peaceful setting. See stars! Enjoy rustic beauty! Get a chance to sleep in an actual barn ...... with all the amenities !!!
