Beautiful Farmhouse!

This place was exactly as advertised. A great spot for viewing the stars and, in our case, meteors!

Lovely stay

We loved staying at the farmhouse and being surrounded by nature and beautiful views. Walking the property, sitting on the porch, hanging around the Firepit and stargazing were highlights. We also visited Lyman Run for swimming and fishing.

Great star view.

We enjoyed our stay very much. However the house needs some cleaning and the pots and pans need to be replaced.

About the host

Hosted by Benn Batterson

I was born and raised in Coudersport. After meeting my wife and graduating from Penn State we moved back to the area. I had met the previous owner of the farm while working on their grounds.
We currently live and raise our family on a sheep farm in Potter County. We strive to provide a childhood of years gone past

Why they chose this property

We purchased the farmhouse and 34 acres in 2000 and bought the remainder of the farm years later. Over the years we have improved much of the house with the latest being a new barn roof this past summer.
I love the peace and quiet here. However the winters can be long between Christmas and Spring.

What makes this property unique

We are 20 minutes from the nearest traffic light. Our farm is bordered on three sides by 250,000 acres of State Forest land. Public access to these areas allows for many outdoor activities. We are the last permanent residence on Short Run Road and may only see the mailman each day in the winter.
