Charming house. Great location to everything the area had to offer. Our dogs loved the meadow surrounding the property. We would most definitely visit again!

Beautiful older home with lots of character. Comfy beds, updated appliances, well manicured gardens and pretty outdoor sitting area. Close location to the interstate and urban areas, yet in a lovely country setting.

Farmhouse as described for a quick trip

We enjoyed this well kept property with beautiful gardens. It was very pet friendly with a nice back yard area. We cooked steak on the grill one night.

Short and Sweet

While we were not there very long we did enjoy our stay! The inside was rustic and beautifully decorated and the outside was whimsical with flowers galore! We would definitely love to stay again if ever in the area!

My mother and family stayed and had the best time, so much so my mom extended it a night. The hosts were the best, flexible, and responsive. Cannot recommend enough!

We had an awesome stay at The Good Bones Abode. It was perfect for our family and 2 furry friends. The farm house is adorable and there was plenty of space, very comfortable beds and a kitchen that met all our needs. Cate and Hutch are wonderful hosts and Cate responded promptly to any questions we had. She also has fantastic ideas of things to see and do in the area. We loved the fact that it was easy to get to the beach or other places relatively quickly but was away from the hustle and bustle of town. The family is already wanting to plan a trip to stay there again next year.

The house is very cute and homey, and the yard was plenty big for us to enjoy (short walk, fire pit, lawn chairs). I love plants and animals and enjoyed both around the house. We encountered a flock of ducks on their afternoon stroll, and we got to wave at the horses from across the street. The house is an older country house with lots of character. Could get creepy at night with how dark it gets outside but plenty of lights and lamps in the house. We enjoyed the tv for movie nights and large kitchen table for dinner. The beds are a bit soft for us personally but perfectly fine and clean. Loved all the books! If you’re looking for a quiet getaway that’s not too far from modern amenities, stay here! Coffee is not included, but aroma joes is 4 mins away. :)
