As this is her home, we are not able to put her away or remove her from the area as she relies on being outside for food and water sources. If anyone has a cat allergy or cannot be around cats, please take this into consideration before booking.

About the host
Hosted by Nikki Huskey
Hi y'all! My husband and I purchased Chimney Top Acres in April of 2019. The house underwent a complete renovation in 2019 as my family and I resided in the basement. We ran a very successful B&B until June of 2021 at which time we sold the property to a lovely couple, Mike & Amy, from TX. We are now renting the property exclusively as a vacation rental. My husband and I built a home on the adjoining 35-acre parcel. I serve as property manager for the new owners. We have a few goats and a barn cat on site at the barn. I frequent the barn a few times per day to check on them!
