Testimonials:
Our weekends at the Harvard Road house were pure bliss--sitting on the porch swing to read or sip a glass of wine, canoeing early in the morning, hiking up into the woods, crossing the bridge at sunset. And then of course there was the fishing, the grilling and the wonderful picnics on the lawn. It's the ideal getaway.

It was hard to leave...My friends and I had a great weekend stay at the farm house and were sad to leave, we originally planned on getting an early start back home, but we didn't want the relaxation and fun to stop. We spent the days by the river, fishing and kayaking, and the nights grilling and enjoying a beer around the fire. The owners have clearly put a lot of work and love into the house, barn, and landscape. My friends loved the loft in the barn. Whether you are a group of friends, a few couples, or a family, I can't imagine not having a great time. Plus, the neighbors make their own maple syrup. How often do you get to have pancakes with syrup made next door? Also, the property is big and pretty secluded and at night you feel as though its just you and the stars (which were as numerous and bright as I've ever seen).
