Our group really enjoyed our 10 night stay. Was like stepping back in time. Beautiful property with a spring house right out back. Will definitely stay again when in the area.
The place was good for what we wanted. It definitely flirts with the line between rustic and rusty but it has charm if you have the right lens. Price also reflects that house isnt updated. The Property itself is beautiful and private. Nice outdoor areas to grill/picnic. Cell reception spotty. If youre a neat freak you probably wont consider this place super clean but it was fine for us. Communication with host was a little inconsistent but they seem kind. I Would recommend but definitely depends on your style.
Relaxing place to stay. Owner was very responsive when we accidentally booked the wrong dates and didn’t realize it until a few days before we traveled.
We absolutely loved our stay at the farm. Its what we were looking for! Out in the woods! The house had everything. The owners were very easy to get hold of and answrred all the questions we had! We go there again!
The house was in a secluded area as advertised. We had a bit of a drive to the wedding venue through hilly winding roads. The house was very spacious but a bit musty.

Very rustic
Very old home with a lot of room. It served my family well for the price for the weekend. The house wasn't particularly clean. It is a very lived in family home. I don't think it has been lived in in a long time, but could use a thorough cleaning. There are only ACs in 2 of the upstairs rooms and 1 downstairs room.
There are not many outlets upstairs. Some of the electrical stuff is a bit dodgy due to the age. The mattresses arent great. Overall it was a good value.
We arrived to find the power was out which left us with no cell service but this was no fault of the owner. There were fiber optic lines being put in until 130am so we had to listen to chainsaws and a bit of noise. It was quite the family comical adventure. Besides that the property was beautiful and the house was absolutely lovely. The best place we have stayed at by far. Close enough to our family yet far enough to be in our own little world. We will definitely be planning a return trip. Thank you for sharing the estate with us.
We're repeat visitors for a reason; this old house has the best vibes ever. We love the seclusion and the surrounding land. Needless to say, we're already planning another visit.
Perfect private getaway to the not to far from lake
The house was just a described. A Secluded rustic farmhouse. It was perfect, we had privacy room for our big dogs to play and plenty of land for the teens to explore and hike when not at the lake .
The property is beautiful and the house has everything you need for your stay. The location is pretty remote so it is perfect for anyone looking for a quiet getaway. Another bonus is that the property is pet friendly and my 2 dogs had a great time as well! Would absolutely go back.

Disappointed~
The property was great, loved the historic home! However, when we arrived, it was pouring outside, when we got into the house the roof was leaking above the A/C in the sunroom. We were not happy that the kitchen was less than clean and there were cobwebs in the cabinets with the dishes. Many of the dishes/flatware we used had to be washed first, the tables clothes were dirty and the chairs in the kitchen are a hazard. The front of the refrigerator and handle was disgusting! The window blinds are gross and the windows in the sunroom are very dirty. The furniture in the tv room is so bad and uncomfortable we could not sit in there. It was hot upstairs and there are rooms that don't have any electric outlets for lamps, alarm clocks or fans. Not enough towels for 10 people, and the shower size is adequate for a child. I was really hoping that the house would work out as we have the family gathering yearly but sadly not.
Our time at the Colbert Farm was amazing! We spent it all outside, playing Cornhole and enjoying a nice campfire. The Colbert’s have a very beautiful place, highly recommend!
Awesome place to stay house was amazing was clean and had everything you need to clean and cook with. Everything was amazing and wonderful. The kids loved it there.
It was a very nice place. We were a little shocked that the number of beds. The description said 2 rooms had 2 beds and there was only 1 in each room. Overall we enjoyed the house. It was beautiful!
