About the host

Hosted by Thomas DeMorro

Host profile image
I've done many things in my life. I'm now trying to be a farmer and love seeing the genuine joy and smiles on people's face I meet here. That's my reward. Come enjoy what we have created for a week, a few days or even a single night just to get away.

Why they chose this property

We got lucky. We bought this property just one year ago in November 2024. Looking for a small farm and we found it right away. First house I liked. First house I put an offer on and we got it. Unreal in this market so it was meant to be and here we are sharing joy with everyone we meet. If it weren't for the "tiny cottage" that come with the property I probably would not have made the purchase. Eight month later and more time and money spent then I could have imagined, The Tiny Cottage went online August 1, 2025 and we have Ben overwhelmed with the results and reactions over our 5 star property and attaining super host status already.

What makes this property unique

The property feels like much more than 3 acres. That is becasue it is high, it is dry and it is level. There is also a 25 acre pond that we abut in the back. All the property is useable and walkable. The sunsets are beautiful and our goats follow guests out for evening strolls on their own. We have an 100% free range experience with the animals which is a delight to everyone who stays. It has been described by our guests as a "haven, sanctuary, and retreat" just to use a few words that we have heard.
