Gorgeous Property!
The farmhouse is such a treat. It's gorgeous inside and out and the amenities are thoughtful. We had plenty of space for our needs, the property was peaceful, and we would definitely stay there again.
The property was exactly as described, well maintained and very clean. Evan and his team went to great lengths to anticipate their guests' needs and communication was top-notch. I would host another retreat at the Old House On the River again in a heartbeat.
