A farmhouse in the woods, watching horses
We stayed on the property for 5 nights and it was so relaxing. It is not resort living or beach living, it is being by yourselves on the mountain in the woods.
The owners are doing a really wonderful job of preserving the heritage of the property while making sure that all the modern amenities are available.
I must point out that the lighting and the heat/air-conditioning were absolutely designer quality. Those are things where traditional farmhouses are weak, but this property was outstanding! You could light up every corner or just pick the lights you want for a mood.
We had 4 people from 3 generations, sleeping in four bedrooms on all 3 floors and no one complained about too hot or too cold or too dark or too bright.
Warning: the stairs are steep and if you are taller than 4'10" you'll have to duck going down to the media room. But again, the lighting comes on automatically, so it won't be a surprise. And if you sleep down there you will hear every flush in the house go whooshing by.
The surround sound on the media center would be capable of waking the neighbors, if there were any neighbors.
There is a beautiful working horse farm across the street. There are woods behind and there are swings, and picnic tables, and a hammock, and goat sculpture and lots of things to enjoy on the property. The front porch is so hospitable, seating for eight, but very comfortable for two snuggling or one just soaking in the peacefulness.
Wonderful!
