We enjoyed our quiet stay. We walked and watched the beautiful sunset. Just enjoyed the simplicity of it all. Away from everyday hustle and bustle. The donkey was super sweet and you didn't even know he was there. The host Ms. Jill was always helpful and answered questions quickly. We'd definitely go back.

We only stayed for one night, but we had a wonderful stay. The property was very clean, cozy, and well equipped with everything we could have needed. The beds were comfortable, and it was an easy and relaxing place to spend the evening.The highlight of our stay, though, was definitely Dexter the donkey! Getting to feed him snacks was such a fun experience, and we also loved the friendly gray cat who was happy to receive plenty of attention and pets.We really enjoyed our stay and would be happy to return.

The property transports you back to the 1920’s as soon as you step in the door. Jill is an excellent host and never let us want for anything. It was fun feeding Dexter and the kitty’s snacks each day. We will absolutely be staying here again on our next visit back east. Looking out at fields with trees and green grass was a welcome change from our home in Arizona.

It was a super comforting home in a beautiful area. Loved all the wild life as well as the cats and donkey. Owner was super friendly and easy to contact. Feels very out in your own space but also close enough to some towns.
