About this property

Rustic Farmhouse w/9 Beds, mins to MSU on working Farm! Pmts Avail. Mason MI

Mid 1800's Farmhouse in the middle of a working farm, a feeling of being in the middle of the country, yet a mile from the expressway and restaurants. Listed price only goes up if you have more than 9 guests and is Lower for those staying more than a week. If you are booking ahead, we have added a feature of payments. Freshly updated from bedding to appliances, including a Sleep Number bed and new mattresses and toppers. Unbelievable original hardwood floors and spectacular wainscoting. Minutes from Expressway, MSU, Dart and Jackson Nat'l. Stunning views. Perfect for a large family, or a couple families or friends coming in for a game. We host a lot of groups coming in for graduation or family get together. Or are you an executive traveler wanting a quiet get away in lieu of a hotel.
Putting together a meeting and wanting a unique meeting location, this could be your spot!

There is what I call a "Petticoat Junction" type of train that comes thru about 3-4 times a day during the week, but not usually on the weekend. The kind you remember wanting to count it's cars, that goes slow enough to wave to the conductor or if you as of late, I watch my new foal dance in circles as it goes by.

When the animals are here, if you would like to collect the eggs and see the animals that can be arranged as long the farm rules are adhered to. Temporarily there are no animals on the property.

This is a non-smoking environment so when you can really breathe the fresh air. Throughout most of the year a beautiful little creek runs through the property.... some days, our waterfront property looks more like a lake than a creek.

We welcome Cowboys and Cowgirls coming in for a show at the MSU Pavilion or Ingham County Fairgrounds (both within 4-6 miles). Just leave your boots on the porch, if you know what I mean!
It is a very quiet area, so it is fine to enjoy conversations around the fire pit, and enjoy the stars at night, but you do need to keep the noise level down. Any larger group get togethers other than registered guests need to be approved first. (please make sure you ask about the fire pit rules in advance, if you think you might want to enjoy the fire-pit, county has a steep fine if you don't abide by them).

I used to spend a lot of time on the road, so I wanted to create a space that truly was relaxing for the business traveler also. You will find although the house has the rustic charm and beautiful original floors... we put a great shower in, nice linens and different types of mattresses and toppers including a sleep number in the Master and updated or new appliances in the kitchen and a washer and dryer by the shower.

About the host

Host profile image
Hi I'm Patti, after purchasing this farm and tearing off the layers of flooring and wall coverings, we found a very amazing place that we wanted to share with YOU! Before a serious horse accident in 2006, I spent a lot of time on the road. So I wanted to create a space that travelers could feel at home and really relax. It’s out in the country were you can listen to the tree frogs sing you to sleep or birds wake you up in the morning. I love my horses and I love helping grow businesses and marketing so with this new farm I'm combining all my passions together.

Within the first 13 months of Hosting we received the Metric Ranking of #1 ~ of 140+ properties!!!

We aren't looking to be the lowest price place on this site. But we do promise to do our best to give you a great experience!! We have had groups extend their stays and several return for another visit within this short period of time since we started.
Come Visit!! We look forward to meeting YOU! If you are coming for a longer stay contact us if your budget is a little tight, No promises but it never hurts to ask!

Why they chose this property

I used to say, there is nothing glamorous about a hotel room after the first few nights. So do something a little different. Spread out more, have your own kitchen, open up the windows feel the country breeze instead of just air conditioning. (yes we do have air conditioning units, but they aren't needed but only a few weeks of the year if that). You don't have to spend time finding a store, as we have a service that will deliver your groceries at your convenience. Bringing the family, when was the last time they stayed at a place they were able to see young horses playing in the yard next to them.

What makes this property unique

Whether you are coming into the area for a family event or several families going to an out-of-town sporting event, why stay at a hotel when you can really relax and enjoy each others company in a unique stay in the country. Count the stars at night, have some-mores by the campfire. If you and your friends are coming in for a get away or MSU, many guests use Lift and Uber services. We are only 6 miles from MSU pavilion.
