We were in town for drag racing and really enjoyed the quiet, tranquility of this property. There was plenty of room for six of us to stay in. Loved the booklet of places to visit around the home and the history! Will definitely book again if we are in the area!!
We loved this home for our vacation stay and didn’t want to leave it, honestly. These hosts have a gem, and stock it with everything anyone could need - especially in the kitchen. The porch and firepit were lovely family time for us. We stayed to be close to Backbone Park and the white water rafting in Manchester. Really lovely, and we will stay again!
From being able to read on the history of the farm. It was the perfect place for us to stay with my kids and mother as we got ready for my daughter’s wedding. Enough room to be able to sit relax visit with family and truely feel home! Seeing nature out in the yard. They were very quick to answer questions working with us abc all! 10 out of 10 worth the stay! We will for sure book again!!
This beautiful farm and state-of-the-art farmhouse were perfect for our small family gathering. Six of us stayed comfortably in the house with areas to sit including the living room, large kitchen, covered porch and fire-pit area. The WiFi worked great for all of us while on our various devices and we felt very safe in the rural setting knowing the property had exterior cameras. And it was the perfect location to travel from to visit additional family and friends in the Delaware / Clayton counties area. We highly recommend this lovely home.
