Kate and Ken were exceptional hosts! Their property felt like a home away from home and was exactly what they advertised. It was fun to take a tour of the farm and learn how a working farm operates. There is nothing better than farm fresh eggs to start your day along with a hot cup of coffee. We would recommend this property to anyone who wants a comfortable and cozy country hideaway. All our needs were met with a smile and we will be back! Happy customers, Drew and Sharon

Weekend Away!

My friends and I absolutely loved staying on the Osgood farm! We came up for a concert and then spent the weekend to enjoying North Conway and Weirs beach. Ken and Kate are amazing hosts and made sure we had everything for us to be comfortable. We would love to stay at the farm again and would highly recommend! Thank you again Osgood family!

Excellent getaway!

The property at Birch Rise Farm is wonderful! It is far enough off of the beaten path that it is quiet and serene. Yet close enough to go grab a bite to eat in town not too far away. You can look out your window and see the sheep on the farm, and their beautiful dogs that look over the place. Kate was an excellent host and very helpful! We will definitely be going back to Birch Rise Farm!

Great place to stay

Kate and her entire family were all very welcoming. She and her son, Hunter, gave us a great tour of the property. We had farm fresh bacon and eggs for breakfast. A gift from Kate. One of the many highlights of our stay. They are a very hardworking family. Somehow they made the time and effort to ensure that we felt at home. We look forward to our next stay at Birch Rise Farm. Thank you Kate, Ken, Henry and Hunter!

Bacon and Eggs

What a delightful place to stay! Opened with a lovely breakfast of eggs and bacon from the farm. While we visited, over 100 baby turkeys were delivered, an unexpected fun add-on. Rooms are clean and mattresses are comfy. Coffee and cream and sugar already onsite. We didnt head to the beach, but it is right around the corner. Communication was great. Highly recommend!

Home Away from Home

The Osgood family were amazing hosts and made us feel very comfortable. We loved touring the farm with the sweet and mature Osgood boys. The property is beautiful and, while off the beaten path, still gives you accessibility to all the Lakes Region has to offer. The apartment was perfect for my family of 4, including 2 littles. She even had a baby gate and bed rails! We can’t wait to stay again.

Weekday Getaway

Where do we begin? From the moment we arrived, we couldn't have been more pleased with our choice. Our hosts, Kate & Ken, and their boys, Hunter and Henry, went out of their way to make sure our stay was memorable and lacking for nothing. No request (including decaf tea and beach chairs) was ever an imposition. The apartment was lovely, tastefully decorated and sparkling clean. Fresh eggs from the chickens were in our refrigerator when we arrived. We even got a tour of the farm. And the roosters were kind enough to be quiet until 7 a.m. What a fun week we had. We were so sorry to leave such a charming place (and family) and won't hesitate to return when we can. .

Beautiful farm stay with outstanding hosts!

This is a nice sized second floor VRBO on a beautiful farm in the lakes region of NH. Myself and a group of friends booked our stay here as a place to sleep since our primary purpose of the trip was to spend as much time on the lake as possible. We thought that this would be like other VRBO experiences which feel cold and detached from the hosts - just a revenue source, but we could not be more wrong. Kate and Ken are outstanding hosts! Never have I stayed at a VRBO where I genuinely felt at home. They stayed up late just to make sure our late check-in at 10:30PM went smoothly (we're soooo sorry to keep them up still). Kate met us with fresh farm eggs, meat from the farm for breakfast, and an offer to tour the farm in the morning - not to mention was extremely accommodating of our boat on trailer (over 50ft combined length) moving cars, arranging parking, etc. The tour of the farm was extremely interesting and made our one rainy day fly by. They were truly ready to help us at a moments notice. The VRBO is well equipped with plenty of beds for 4 adults (as long as 2 are willing to share a room in separate twin beds), AC's in the bedrooms, a stocked kitchen, and a clean bathroom. We will stay here again and plan to become regular customers of the farm for fresh meat :) once we move to the area. Thank you Ken and Kate for making our stay special.

Cozy and Comfortable

We enjoyed our stay at the farm. The vbro was very clean, spacious and welcoming. We were able to watch the potbelly pigs from our rooms, plus all the other farm animals. Kate was a great hostess (thanks for the bacon and eggs) and her boys were very well mannered and polite. Please don’t hesitate to visit the farm. It will be worth it. P

The Osgood family are so friendly, welcoming and offer a home away from home. They are so kind and accommodating. Their apartment on their farm is perfect and exactly what we were looking for for our short stay in NH! Thank you, Ken & Kate!
