About this property

Home Away From Home

Re-connect with loved ones in this family-friendly house. It is located just .8 miles from the wedding/reception venue "The Barn at Fairview Acres". Sleeps up to 8 people and has an open area to gather in. We are happy to accommodate anyone whether you are with a wedding party, working or hunting in the area, or just in town to visit friends and family. If one house isn't enough, we also own the 2 bedroom "Cozy House" right next door.
The space
If you are looking to stay in our place you should know that if you are not familiar with the area, we only have 1 small gas station. The closest grocery store is 10 miles away, so come prepared. I'll have coffee and some water there for you. I just like to give guests a heads up.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Our stay was exceptional, couldn't have asked for a better home for out 4 day stay. Everything was so clean and roomy. Great kitchen area and 2 living rooms with a very nice TV 📺. I will be rebooking again in the future. The host was most helpful and kind.

House was great.

Our experience all around was good. Communication with host was easy and they worked with us great. House was clean, in a quite neighborhood and definitely better than a hotel.
