About the farmhouse

A family farmhouse, brought back home

We were able to bring Christina's family's little 1930s farmhouse back into the family. Parts of the homestead are believed to date to the late 1800s. We renovated it from top to bottom. Today it's fully electric and modern inside, with a brand-new wood stove for cozy nights.

The house sits several hundred feet off the road on 48.5 acres of fields and woods. Expect quiet mornings, a small fish pond out back, a fire pit with log seats and plenty of firewood, and deer, wild turkeys and the occasional eagle wandering past the windows.

Good to know

Before you arrive

Is it good in winter?

Yes. The wood stove and cozy bedrooms are guest favorites, and the fields are beautiful under snow.

Can I bring my dog?

Yes, pets are welcome. Let us know when you request your dates.

Is the Wi-Fi good enough to work?

Yes. Starlink high-speed Wi-Fi handles HD streaming and video calls, and there's a dedicated workspace.

Anything unusual about the house?

It's a true old farmhouse. You reach the queen bedroom by walking through the first bedroom, and the upstairs half bath has a low ceiling, so taller guests should mind their heads.

What's shared, and what's locked?

You'll have the whole house and the outdoor summer kitchen out front. The other buildings on the property stay locked.

What about wildlife and trash?

This is real country, and the wildlife is part of the charm. Please keep trash in the bins in the summer kitchen.

Are there cameras?

Exterior security cameras only. There are none inside the house.
