Just what i was looking for
If you prefer chickens and cows as neighbors, you'll fit right in this small working ranch/farm. Power outages NOT A PROBLEM here...lol Cool hvac and fast wifi. Beats BW any day in my book and Jana and Bill onsite. Thanks for sharing your awesome place.
Stayed 2 nights in May 2024
