Hanover Vineyards is a true gem. The house is beautiful, with so much attention to detail. The Colonial charm is evident everywhere, but it has all of the modern conveniences, too. We loved the gardens, the horseshoe pit and walking up to see Pete, the goats, chickens, ducks and turkeys. The Welcome Book is so informative - there are dozens of great things to do close by. Megin (the owner) was so nice and helpful. We'll definitely be back!
Three generations had a wonderful time staying at Hanover Vineyards. The house was comfortable and well-appointed, and the host friendly, accessible and accommodating. The grandchildren enjoyed feeding the goats and chickens, and fell in love with Pete, the property’s special Great Pyrenees cohost. Highly recommend!
We loved the house as well as the beautiful yard complete with patio, large gazebo, grill, and a wonderful fire pit. The children enjoyed visiting the animals (goats, ducks & chickens) and the large grassy area to run around in.
Megin was wonderful and the place easily housed our 9 person group. My daughter had a great time playing with the goats, chickens, and ducks. The house was very well stocked and no issues at all with check in or out.
A group of 8 friends stayed at this property for 2 nights to celebrate New Year's Eve. The house was clean and comfortable, the kitchen modern and well equipped. We enjoyed walking the property, feeding the goats with the hosts, Megin and Woody, and relaxing with old friends. Megin was always available and very helpful and friendly. We would definitely recommend this property!
Megin and Woody were wonderful. The house was the most well appointed we’ve stayed in. The history of this beautiful house was evident in every room. We enjoyed absolutely everything about our stay. We would definitely love to book again! You will be very happy! We sure were. The house, the fire pit, the grounds, the animals! The owners are fabulous!
This place is amazing. We rented the house because my daughter was getting married in Canterbury and we felt it would be an easier commute of we stayed near the venue.
The place sleeps 8-10 people. We had to rent 2 homes since we were a very large group of 20.
We all preferred the farm house better. The location was better, the house was spotless. The property owner and the caretaker were easy to reach if I had any questions or needed help with anything.
The VRBO listing stated Pet Friendly in several descriptions. The night before check in the host texted me with further information stating explicitly No Pets. We had to scramble to make other arrangements for our small blind deaf toothless dog. Very stressful. All the fault of VRBO
We were looking for a large home to accommodate our family for my wife's special birthday. And this worked out great.
Quite frankly, I felt that some of my questions to Megin prior to arrival might have bordered on pestering but she was extremely accommodating and responsive.
Megin and Woody invited us to feed the animals which the kids enjoyed. Good people!!
The gazebo with gas fire pit was perfect when it was windy and rainy and we had to abandon the outdoor pit. The kids liked to hike the trail, check out the pond, run down the hill from the barn and check out the animals. The kitchen and bathrooms are updated and beautifully appointed while the rest of the house maintains its historical charm.
This is by far one of the best VRBO's we have stayed in.
And, yes, Pete (the dog) is awesome!
Woody and Megan ,
Our extended family from ages 2 to 60, thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your beautiful home. We had plenty of cozy places inside and outdoors to spread out. The kids could not get enough of the outdoors. They were constantly engaged from the fire pit , outdoor games, to the goats, chickens, and barn cats and of course the gentle dog.
The house was equipped with everything you could need. For a home built in the 1750’s, it has all modern convinces in the kitchen and bathrooms. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen a dream, the grill great, and the gazebo perfect. The charm of the authentic fireplace, and floors as well as the decor, it felt as if we were actually in a true historical setting.
You were excellent hosts. Thanks for the time you took to involve our family with feeding the barn animals. It was a special treat to meet your sons. Our family shared many special moments here. It was a blessing.
Thank you very much,
Tim, Stacie and family
My husband and I and our 3 adult children spent the weekend at the farm house and it did not disappoint. There was plenty of room with the 5 bedrooms and 3 baths and the well-equipped island kitchen was great for meal preparation. There were only 5 of us, but the home would easily accommodate 5 more comfortably. The home was the most well-stocked VRBO that we have ever stayed at, and the fresh flowers and snacks to welcome us were so appreciated. This historical home was beautifully decorated to time period yet had all the modern conveniences of updated kitchen and bathrooms, TVs, gas fire places, dishwasher and microwave. We enjoyed a short 2-mile hike along the river at Salt Rock State Forest and Sprague Land Preserve is close by with beautiful trails along the river as well. We had a rainy day on Saturday, but the covered gazebo with fire table was great to play cards and still be outside and keep warm and dry. The host was amazing. It was easy to communicate with the host, and she was very responsive, and helpful. Our family fell in love with Pete, the farm's Great Pyrenees, who was the most loveable gentle giant. We so enjoyed feeding the goats and visiting with the hosts on Saturday morning and our family cannot wait to make a return visit to explore the beautiful area further and hopefully on a weekend without rain!
We celebrated Thanksgiving with our extended family of three generations. The house and property were great and exceeded our expectations. The house is historic with all the charm of an old house, with all the comforts of a modern home. The kitchen was well equipped and we cooked a full Thanksgiving meal. The grounds of the property are really pretty with lots to explore and the owners were very responsive and pleasant. We had a great time and would definitely return in the future!
The farmhouse is beautiful, retaining its charm while sporting modern conveniences. The kitchen is well appointed, which made it easy for us to cook large meals for our family gatherings. We appreciated the availability of cleaning products, paper goods, etc. - everything we needed for our stay. The house was very clean and comfortable, with plenty of linens for a large group. There were also many thoughtful touches, such as toiletries in the bathrooms, black face cloths for makeup removal, a snack basket, and fresh flowers upon our arrival. The hosts were super responsive to our messages and very accomodating. We enjoyed spending time with Pete and the other animals, and making use of the outside fire pit. We highly recommend this property and hope to visit again when the winery is open!
