This was a beautiful property. The house was clean. The host was wonderful. The kitchen was great. It was family friendly. The grounds are just beautiful. The house is gorgeous. The patio is lovely. The farm animals are just so nice too see and be around. The host was very accommodating and went above and beyond to help us with anything we needed. We made a fire each night they had a lovely fire pit and Wood was provided for us. We would definitely stay here again in the future. We are in the heart of Amish country and it was just beautiful to drive around and also horse and buggies passed by on their road and are at all the local markets and on the roads around the property. they gave us great recommendations for local eateries and things to do the house has a Keurig a coffee pot a grill there are three bathrooms. Everything is on three floors so there are steps. What a wonderful stay thank you.

This property is so relaxing and scenic. The farmhouse is luxuriously renovated but feels like stepping back in time all at once. Our family adores seeing the animals on the farm, the peace and quiet, and enjoying family time in the comfy living spaces. We will be back!

Miriam and Omar were excellent hosts and made us feel welcome. The house was so full of character and beauty, with historic timbers and many interesting architectural elements. Having a bathroom on all three floors was convenient. The windows all had interesting views onto the farmland. We were introduced to some of the special animals like Ethel the Scottish Highland cow, and Zoe the energetic and playful Dalmation dog. We were able to make a fire in the fireplace which added coziness to the already cozy house on a chilly damp winter weekend. We hope to return soon!

Wonderful stay

Had a quiet and relaxing stay in the lovely, spotlessly clean home. We really enjoyed swimming in the pool and the children loved the play area and the ride in the horse cart!

Excellent host!!! Reached out several times to make sure everything was going great. Only thing I would say is if someone in your party has trouble with stairs this location may not be for you. Both bedrooms are upstairs. We loved the property!!! Very quiet area. Would definitely stay again!!
