This place is amazing! Good view on a clean farm. The neatest silo setup! Very clean, decorated and well maintained. Everything we needed was provided from stocked kitchen, firewood, and even his and hers bathrobes. The hot tub is private, new and incredible. My wife really enjoyed the front porch swing as well for morning coffee.
