Property was very clean, and hosts were great. They do stop by to feed the animals twice per day, but this was not disruptive in any way! Property has a little playground out front, which was great for our four year old. We stayed during a heat wave, and they brought in fans that kept the place very cool and comfortable. Overall, a great experience!!

Lovely Stay in a Countryside Setting

Our stay was absolutely excellent. The home had everything we needed—clean, cozy, and well-stocked with all the essentials. The location was perfect, especially with the state park just a short distance away. The park itself was stunning and gave us the perfect opportunity to reconnect with nature and truly escape from everyday life.We especially loved the charming farm animals—they made us feel like we were going to laugh, by being so cute! The owners were incredibly responsive and helpful, which made everything even smoother.All in all, this was one of the best stays I've had on VRBO. Highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the countryside.

This home exceeded our expectations. Our family of 6 traveled from Nashville, Tennessee to visit family. The farm charm was the perfect warm welcome we needed. The home was so clean and cozy, and the beds were comfortable. The host was so responsive and accommodating. The highlight of our stay were the beautiful farm animals. Our kids loved petting Chex, he’s the sweetest thing! If you’re looking for a beautiful farmhouse conveniently located to all the amenities, yet has that quiet country feel. I highly recommend this home! We will definitely be back to stay the next time we are in town! Thanks for everything!

Very clean

about the cleanest Vrbo ever stayed in, plenty of room, beds were comfortable, we slept well, plenty of room on property, with paved trail going by house, We did not use but enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching others walk, run, bike by. It is a century farm house that required searching for the single light switch in every room, and night time lighting was aa bit low for brightness or intensity of some fixtures to much , however the roominess, the remodeling inside and out, the cleanliness, the location, and almost everything you need provided, and the great weeklong stay price still made this a great place to stay, and we would stay again .
