Situated on 30 acres of private land, The Bird's Nest provides easy access to a variety of attractions, including a heated pool (available from May to September) located outside the owner's house.

Other outdoor amenities include hammocks, picnic tables, a fire pit, BBQ area, a children's play set, and a trampoline.

The master bedroom offers a king-sized bed, while a twin bed nook provides additional sleeping for a friend or little one.

A large TV with access to popular streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu, as well as strong Wi-Fi, cater to your entertainment needs.

As you venture further into the property, be captivated by our wonderful rescue animals, which include 2 horses, 4 miniature donkeys, 2 emus, 3 pigs, 3 roosters, 16 hens, 3 rabbits, and 23 geese. Guests are welcome to walk around and say hi to the animals on their own or we offer animal tours for guests interested in learning more about our friendly residents.

A tranquil small waterfall cascades into a refreshing 3ft swimming hole, while a private stream meanders through the property. Engage in captivating conversations under the starry sky while gathered around the fire pit.

The property includes three other houses, two of which are occupied by the owner's family, and the third is also available for guests. With its own entrance, The Bird's Nest ensures complete privacy for our guests. The apartment is located above a garage housing farm equipment, which is used minimally by the owners.
