Beautiful Location
I would definitely stay at this location again. Everything was clean and tidy. Wrap around porch with view of the pond was spectacular!! Fresh eggs and bacon in the refrigerator was so nice and delicious. Christmas decorations were wonderful!! Thank you so much for our stay!!

Country living
A great relaxing place, seat on the front deck and watch nature at its best. Remodeled open floor plan with newer appliances. Great host that lives in the main house on the same property. We are city folks but enjoyed the animals on the farm. Ducks, chickens, turkeys and horses. Fresh eggs every morning with a sunset at night. Would stay again if in area.

Off the beaten path
This property is a pleasant surprise. We could not have asked for a more perfect home to enjoy and relax in. Views from the porch are beautiful and rejuvenating. The ducklings swimming in the lake added charm and humor. The hosts for this property are lovely people and they provide for every comfort. We definitely recommend this property!
