We were looking for a simple quiet night in the area and that is what it provided. Nice little unit and has everything you need. Just remember you are in Amish country and be prepared if staying a Saturday night or Sunday.Enjoyed our evening.

Only great things to say. I do think the description doesn’t do it justice. If you want scenery this is the place. The hosts were great also. We will be back!

We enjoyed our 1-night stay so much last year that we decided to return and spend two nights. We are on a restrictive diet that makes dining out very difficult so it is wonderful to have a nice, clean kitchen to work in that has everything we need to prepare our meals.The pastoral setting is so good for our souls. Even when the weather was inclement we loved being ensconced on the tiny home, watching the storm unfold. It truly provided us with a time of refreshing and unplugging from daily responsibilities.The hosts are charming and informative and seeing their border collie at work is fascinating! We look forward to returning.

Staying on a real farm rather than in a crowed hotel was wonderful. The host answered questions from the moment we booked until we left. It was quiet and peaceful. We would definitely go back!

The private and peaceful space on an active farm was a perfect setting in autumn! Perfect fire with a perfect star filled sky. The morning coffee was enhanced in the peaceful atmosphere of the countryside slowly awakening with the sunrise.

Just what the doctor ordered

Spotless, cozy and comfy, it could not have met our need to unplug and relax any better. The sheep, the horses, the countryside… It was perfect. Our only regret was only being able to stay one night. And we will definitely ask for a tour of the farm next time.Kathy responded promptly to all questions and concerns during the registration process and was very easy to work with. No regrets here!

Great Sunset

This was our last stop after a trip to New England before heading home. Cute tiny home with a nice porch for relaxing on. We got to the place later and it was dark so the driveway was hard to find and hard to see how to get back to the homes but we did find them. The listing said it had Wifi but we couldn't find it or connect so we had to use our phone's hot spot. Overall it was a nice place to stay. Close to some of the fun shopping and buffet type restaurants.
