Wake up calls from the chickens and kitties the want some loven was great. Owners were very quick to respond. This is a pretty private place even with a main house on property. We thought it was super quiet even with the road nearby. Loved the closeness of Mead for a quick morning coffee at Ziggi’s and Maggie’s for breakfast or lunch. We will definitely stay again. Plenty of parking for Rv also. ##### AKNIMROD Stayed 10 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joshua W. 10 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place and very peaceful. So close to Longmont and things to in the area, yet so tranquil and private on it's own. Plenty of room on site, it feels like it's own little ecosystem. Try not to fall in love with the duck, kittens, or any of the other cute farm animals around. Our pup sure did! ##### Joshua W. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Chrissy K. 8 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Neat little experience It was a nice place on great land with chickens, ducks, and cows. Lots of extras- ping pong table, above ground pool and grills for our use. 1 down side was the air conditioning. It was 1 window unit in a room that really isn't used and didn't keep the place very cool. ##### Chrissy K. Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joshua W. 1 Oct 2024 ##### Joshua W.
