About the host
Your host
I was born in OH, grew up in Columbia, MO, attended high school in NJ, returned to MO to attend Bible College to train for preaching ministry, married, & had our 1st of 3 kids b4 graduation. Ministered with churches in IN & MO b4 moving to AR in '85 to plant a church. Out of vocational ministry since '17. Wife retired from nursing in '16. Besides our STR (short term rental) business, I am a roofing contractor & a real estate investor. We manufactured & raised 3 kids, all now in their 40's. They gave us 9 grandkids. In '14, after 12 yrs of empty nest, we took in 4 siblings (2 girls, 2 boys) & became their legal guardians. We adopted them in early '20. The girls are now grown & the older daughter gave us our 10th grandchild which evened the genders @ 5 ea. Our adopted boys are still in high school.
Why they chose this property
We bought our 5 acres in '92 bc we loved the property & bc this is the only direction North Little Rock & Sherwood can grow. Sherwood has gotten closer, but our valley still looks & feels remote & far from the city. The only traffic here is our neighbors, their guests, delivery ppl, & contractors. We love the peace, quiet, security, & the sights, sounds, & smells of nature. Our guests love it for all of the same reasons.
What makes this property unique
There are both rural & city properties, but our property is the best of both. We are rural & it looks/feels very remote, but we can be in the capital city of Little Rock in 20 minutes. Many long term nearby residents don't even know about our valley tho they have driven past our little gravel road dozens of times.
