Everything about our stay was wonderful! The house was lovely and offered a perfect balance of peaceful seclusion and proximity to town. We found the reading room incredibly cozy, the sunroom game table ideal for puzzles, and the fireplace provided a cozy ambiance for relaxing in the evenings.

Thank you! After so many holidays at the 1891 Schoolhouse Inn, it was really nice to have you at Helmsburg this year. I’m delighted it felt peaceful and cozy and that you all enjoyed the spaces so much. Now I’m curious where next year will take you….

This quaint cottage was a perfect location for a weekend of exploring Nashville and would be perfect for exploring Brown county State Park. My friends and I enjoyed that it was 3 minutes from downtown, which allowed for easy access but you were able to escape it all. The swim spa was a clear highlight! Would happily stay here again with either my friends, or my family as was also well suited for children.

Sisters Weekend

The setting was as described and shown. It's wonderfully close to everything. We loved the property and chickens. The host was sweet and informative. It is a cabin, so spotless hotel room it isn't but the charm and feel well overshadowed the rural dust, bugs & critters.Would definitely stay again!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! I’m so glad you enjoyed the charm of the property, the peaceful setting, and of course—the chickens! It’s wonderful to hear that the natural surroundings and unique feel of the cabin made for a memorable stay. As noted in the listing, my home is nestled in a rural environment, and with that comes the occasional visit from bugs, birds, and woodland critters. Pest control is scheduled regularly but nature is always nearby—and I appreciate your understanding of what makes this place so special. Thank you again for being such respectful and kind guests. I’d love to welcome you back anytime!

By far the best experience we have encountered while vacationing. Let’s just start with this historic cabin, warm and welcoming with a little bit of everything to enjoy. Our host was very informative and if we needed anything, she was quick to return a reply. We were very grateful for the five star hospitality. There were free range chickens that my wife absolutely adored, a swim spa to relax in that neither of us had experienced before, we enjoyed the firepit for smores, arts and crafts such as coloring in the sun room, and a relaxing movie night.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m thrilled to hear you had such a wonderful experience at the Homestead and enjoyed everything from the swim spa and firepit to the arts and crafts in the sunroom. I’m especially glad the chickens made such an impression—they love greeting new friends! It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and I’d love to welcome you back anytime for more relaxation, s’mores, and starry Brown County nights. —Leah
