The Experience

Spend your days floating in the pool, relaxing on the dock, or capturing photos of the farm animals in the fields.

In the evenings, gather around the fire pit, fire up the BBQ, or create pizzas together in the wood-fired oven.

Unique Stays

The original Hen House and Love Shack were once chicken coops, now converted into cozy outdoor bedrooms. Staying in these spaces is a little like glamping! They are charming and rustic, but do not have attached bathrooms. Guests use the nearby shared facilities in the 1/2 bath or the original ADA-compliant showerhouse.
