Great spot for our extended family of seven visiting more family in Kirkland. Temperature outside never got above -12C but house stayed warm and toasty. Driveway ploughed every morning so huge snowfall not an issue! Everything we needed and as described. Only bummer was coffee machine did not work (sadly missed on a winters morning) but apart from that we had a very good stay. I personally never heard the road but ear plugs were provided if it was an issue. Wood definitely stay again

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We’re glad to hear the home stayed warm and cozy despite the cold temperatures and that the daily plowing made winter travel easy for your family. It’s great to know the space worked well for your group and met expectations overall. We appreciate you mentioning the coffee machine issue—sorry about that, especially on a cold winter morning—and thank you for your understanding. We’d be happy to welcome you back again anytime.

The house was in excellent shape- charming even! The game room was so much fun - loved the foosball and the window/door to the kitchen. The location was great. I loved the pond and waterfall behind the house. I loved how the kitchen was closed off with a door so early-risers didn’t wake up late-risers. We also appreciated an exception to the “no pets” rule. It cost a lot, 150, for the exception… but we really wanted this well-behaved pup with us! This was the perfect place for a family get away! We gave it a 4, not a 5, because the coffee machine was broken (and we needed it), a chair in the kitchen was broken so the kitchen wasn’t as usable for early risers, and the bed for the 9th person was under the bed… didn’t know… so the 1st night, we were down a bed. But otherwise the host was great and the location was great!

Thank you so much for the thoughtful and detailed review! We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the charm of the home, the game room, the peaceful pond and waterfall setting, and how well the layout worked for different schedules—those are some of our favorite features too. We truly appreciate your understanding and flexibility regarding the pet exception and are happy your pup could join the getaway. Thank you as well for noting the issues you encountered with the coffee machine, kitchen chair, and extra bed—your feedback is helpful and appreciated. We’re glad overall the home and location made for a great family stay, and we’d be happy to welcome you back again in the future.

Fun farmhouse in Kirtland

Overall we loved the property, and location. The property around the farmhouse is full of natural beauty. We loved the antiques inside the home. The home suited our needs, and was well supplied for our family of 9. This is an older home with character which we found to be fun, and charming.

We loved the property and all of it's historical architecture and antiques. It was such a peaceful home and our kids never touched an electronic device! The pond at night with the bull frogs and fish jumping was so peaceful and relaxing and was a great place to wind down each night and chat before heading to bed. We generally struggle to sleep when away from home, but this house was homey and comfortable we couldn't even make it through the first page of a book or a start of a movie before we were sound asleep! Our host was amazing and stayed in contact through emails leading up to and throughout our stay to ensure we had everything we needed. Such an amazing place to create some family memories!

Beautiful Farm House

We loved this beautiful home. It was just minutes away from Historic Kirtland so it made it easy to come back and forth. We also enjoyed Squire Castle. The house was charming and bigger than we expected. Everything was clean and organized. We picked this home because of the year it was built, as we wanted to help them get a feel for the history of Historic Kirtland, it was perfect for that.
