A great week at the Plant Farm

Our family had a great stay here. The house was beautiful and we had everything for our stay. Diane and Chris were very nice and great hosts. We will be coming to back to stay again!

We made a last minute decision to attend a concert in nearby Lunenburg, and were absolutely delighted when we pulled into the driveway and realized what a gem we would be staying in. Diane and Chris are generous hosts, sharing this incredible place they are lovingly restoring - the house was wonderful and the property a wonderland of trees and bushes from around the world. It is a special space, made more so by the convenient location close to beautiful beaches, a great pizza spot and historic towns and communities within minutes.

Stayed two nights. Lovely hosts. The only point of improvement we had was that tap water was not drinkable, so there was a large bottle on the counter instead. Understood that the area is in a deep drought in fall 2025. Outdoor shower was a treat. Property very interesting if you are a horticulture buff, quite the history on this site!
