We had a wonderful stay at this charming farmhouse! The property is absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. Sitting on 98 acres, it was the perfect place to relax and enjoy nature. One of our favorite parts was walking down to the river, where we were pleasantly surprised to find kayaks, a paddle boat, and a rowboat available for guests to use. The home was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. The hosts were responsive and made check-in easy. The upstairs was a little warm on our first evening, but once we adjusted the downstairs thermostat and gave the system time to catch up, it was comfortable for the rest of our stay. Also the bedroom fans were amazing! If you’re looking for a quiet country getaway with beautiful scenery and plenty of outdoor space to explore, we would definitely recommend staying here!
