Very cozy and comfy, peaceful location. Host was kind and informative, and let us meet and pet the resident goats, chickens,geese, and farmcat. We were in town for one night only, but enjoyed our stay. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect Fall Trip
My husband and I stayed for three nights at this perfect place. The Loft was perfect before we ever walked in. Beautiful flowers were blooming outside the door and a pumpkin was on the front steps. The inside of the Loft was so cozy and clean. The furnishing were very nice and the bed was very comfortable. The artwork in the walls was so pretty. We had everything we needed for our stay. The animals were so welcoming and we loved spending time with the chickens, geese and goats. Tessa was so kind and even told us that we could check out later since no other guests were checking in the next day. I can see why this place got a 5 Star rating. It was absolutely perfect. We will definitely be making a return trip. Thank you Tessa for kind your hospitality.

Very cute property and building! The bed was more soft than I prefer but everything was clean and the wall unit for heat/air worked really well.

About the host

Host profile image
Welcome to our loft!
We recently moved to the area to be closer to family and because of how beautiful it is. We love hiking and getting outside so this seemed this area is perfect for us! I used to be a zookeeper and now am starting a new path since moving. My Husband Matt is also in the animal field and works locally.
We have a lot of pets so were lucky to be able to buy this little farm and call it home. We are both very friendly people and are happy to chat with guests but will absolutely give 100% privacy unless otherwise requested.

Why they chose this property

We got extremely lucky to purchase this home. We always wanted a little land for our animals and to be in the mountains. We got that and more along with this wonderful rental space that the previous owners so careful created. We are very happy to continue to host travelers at this wonderful spot.
