Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad to hear that you had a great experience with communication and the check-in/check-out process. We strive to make everything as seamless as possible for our guests. We hope to welcome you back soon
Had a great stay! We loved the house and the feeling it had. I kind of wished we had known about the construction currently happening on the only road the house is accessible from but it wasn't too much of a detriment.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We appreciate you staying with us and hope we have the opportunity to host you again in the future. Thank you!
This place was amazing. The pictures do not lie. There was room for everyone to have their own space and the barn provided a large gathering rec type space for everyone to come together for games and just a good time to be together. This felt like we were in the country but was very close and convenient to everything needed on College Avenue. THE COMMUNICATION WAS EXCELLENT AND VERY FAST IF NOT IMMEDIATE AS WE APPROACHED OUR CHECK-IN DAY OR WHEN WE HAD QUESTIONS. We would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend to EVERYONE we know.

Christine, thank you so much for your kind words! We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay here at the farmstead. We think we’ve got something pretty unique and special, and love when we get to share it with others. We hope to see you again in the future!
This our second stay at the Farmstead. We have a family after Christmas and New Year gathering. The Farmstead makes a great place for us to do so. The house has a nice kitchen with a table, which also serves as a game and card playing table. The bedrooms easily accommodate our needs. The hit is the barn which serves as the main "playing" place. The check-in and check-out process is simple and easy. There were no issues or problems but if there were, help is just a phone call away. It was a great place and stay.

Beautiful old farm house but poorly maintained on the outside. Simple things like sweeping off the porch and removing debris and dirt from entrances, brushing off outside cushions would certainly be a beginning. Carpet is pretty nasty! Basic spices would be nice and there were not enough dishes, glasses and silverware. Not enough chairs for six people to eat together. This seems strange since it accommodates up to ten people.

Hi Douglas, thanks so much for reaching out. We are sorry to hear about some of the troubles you had during your stay, and do wish you would have send us a message so we could help address these items during your stay. Looking back at our correspondence, we did send a message the day after check-in asking if there was ANYTHING you needed, and you asked for more coffee (one of the amenities we provide). We brought more over. At no point did you mention the missing silverware/cups/plates/etc. With the barn being another gathering space, sometimes things migrate over to the cupborads there, which we could have told you, or we could have had additional serviceware delivered if you needed it. As for the deck, we do apologize. With 150 year old trees throughout our yard, they do tend to drop a lot daily, and we do our best to keep it clean, and would have happily came over to help with this again.
We hope you'll stay with us in the future, and wish you the best.
-Mark and team
