About this property
Home Away From Home
Re-connect with loved ones in this family-friendly house. It is located just .8 miles from the wedding/reception venue "The Barn at Fairview Acres". Sleeps up to 8 people and has an open area to gather in. We are happy to accommodate anyone whether you are with a wedding party, working or hunting in the area, or just in town to visit friends and family. If one house isn't enough, we also own the 2 bedroom "Cozy House" right next door.
The space
If you are looking to stay in our place you should know that if you are not familiar with the area, we only have 1 small gas station. The closest grocery store is 10 miles away, so come prepared. I'll have coffee and some water there for you. I just like to give guests a heads up.
