This was a fantastic place for us on our family's PNW adventure. The house itself was part of the experience. And it was also a gateway to some of our other adventures. Jim and Jimmiesue are fantastic hosts. My kids loved the time spent with Jimmiesue and the animals. We played lots of family games on the property. We highly recommend this house for your stay in the PNW!
We had a great stay! Jim and Jimmiesue have a beautiful home stocked with everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and everything was very clean. We enjoyed the animals, hammock, mini golf, hot tub, sauna, frisbee golf, and mini golf. They also did a great job returning messages and helping out as needed. The location and neighborhood were great as well. We definitely recommend booking with Jim and Jimmiesue!
My family of 7 (all adults) had the best time. We had a low key, relaxing vacation that allowed us to unwind together. Jim and Jimmisue were wonderful hosts and have truly thought of every tiny amenity that a guest could need. It’s very evident a lot of consideration and experience has gone into this rental. My brother stayed in their new RV on their property to have his own space and he loved it! It was super nice and fancy! The beds were comfy, the location was relaxing, the disc golf was fun, the animals were so cute. We loved everything about this place and we’d love to stay again in the future, THANKS JIM & JIMMISUE!
3 of us came to the area to visit family. The hobby farm was a great place for our group of adults to gather and visit. We had 3 staying overnight and a total of 8 of us during a few days. Plenty of space indoors, outdoor under covered patio or the uncovered table area. Everything was very clean and well maintained. We also got to visit with the animals. I did not notice any animal smells around the house, but you might hear a rooster in the morning. Overall a great experience and we hope to get back.
A group of moms needed a break and this house did the trick. The home was warm and cozy, kitchen was stocked, beds were comfortable and the bathrooms had everything we needed. Overall a great place to stay.
We really enjoyed out time at this peaceful spot! After selling our home in Vancouver and the stresses of packing and moving, it was so nice to come to Jim and Jimmiesue's home while we awaited our next chapter. They were welcoming, kind, and generous. It is impeccably clean and well stocked.
Do yourself a favor and book this place for your family. Such a beautiful property with everything you could possibly need. Our hosts were amazing and very accommodating! Our family had a wonderful time.
This property is the best-maintained place I have stayed for sure. You can tell the owners care about the state of their property immensely. Had communication with Jimmiesue who was super kind and took the time to tell us about the animals and show us how to hold the rabbits. Overall the stay was perfect, and I would definitely go again!
Host are awesome! The house is so well appointed and clean, we wanted to move in!! The peace and quiet, the rescue farm animals, fresh eggs, entertainment all added to our relaxation and enjoyment. Definitely a place to gather our family for future visits.
This place was awesome!
Everything you need to stay busy. minigolf, hot and such.
very close to the concert venue
Home owners were very responsive when asking questions.
Wish we booked it for an extra day!
Such a great house to stay at! Loved the hot tub and great outdoor area to grill. We stayed with friends, but home was also very family friendly! We will definitely be back!
We had a wonderful stay. Jim and Jimisue went out of their way to ensure we had a great trip. Would recommend this property to anyone staying in the Richfield, Oregon area
Everything about our vacation here was wonderful. Close to everything but yet on a farm, fresh eggs were a treat. Loved the animals. Our hosts were friendly and accommodating. The rental had everything we needed and this was the cleanest Vrbo we have stayed at. Many thanks to our wonderful hosts. We will be back next year.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Hobby Farm! Our birthday girl loved feeding the goats and holding the bunnies. Our family enjoyed the varied outdoor activities including mini golf and pickle ball. There were so many fun things to try! The home was warm and inviting inside with comfortable beds and charming decor. The owners were so kind, responsive, generous, and welcoming. Overall a fun and wonderful experience!
This property is exactly as listed and amazing! It is adorable, the animals are fun, and it includes everything you could need for your stay! You wont regret it!
This was a great place to stay for our family. Our daughters enjoyed the mini golf, pac man, and other games, as well as seeing the farm animals. We enjoyed the hot tub and close proximity to great restaurants, hiking trails, and other sites. The owners were very friendly and responsive. I highly recommend it for couples and families.
We could not have been happier with our stay here. The property is absolutely beautiful. The owners were communicative and very helpful. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. We will definitely be staying here again!
This property is so unique and we enjoyed every part of it, from the animals to the hot tub and sauna, and the house was nicely decorated and super clean. The owners go out of their way to make the stay comfortable. Also a very good location to explore the Portland area. We hope to return one day!

About the host
Hosted by Jim & Jimmiesue
We were retired painting contractors looking to downsize without leaving our 5 acre hobby farm so we turned our house into a VRBO. We spend most of our time caring for our animals and tending the gardens. We have enjoyed hosting families from all over the globe and especially teaching the kiddos that food doesn't come from a box.
Why they chose this property
We purchased this farm 23 years ago. What drew us was the fact that the house is in the center of the five acres so we are buffered from the outside world. At the same time we are 2 minutes away from the I 205 and I 5 freeway and a 20 min from the Portland Airport.
What makes this property unique
What really makes this property unique from the other vacation rentals by owner is that we have a Farm Experience for every age. We try to set up the home and out door area according to the needs of each individual guest group. We also live onsite so we can be available to answer questions about the animals, gardens or events in our area.
