There are several playgrounds minutes away. Discover the gorgeous landscape that surrounds this family farm.
There is nothing more peaceful than sitting on the porch in the morning listening to the birds chirp. There are 3 ponds on the property full of all types of wildlife and wonderful ecosystems.

We were pleasantly surprised by this place. We needed a place for our family to stay for a wedding in the area and this was perfect! The home was comfortable and plenty of space for us. The animals were such a nice treat and exactly what we didn’t know we needed. Would highly recommend The Sunshine house for a relaxing getaway with loved ones.

My family and I really enjoyed staying at this home for a quick getaway. The house was so clean and comfortable. We loved feeding the animals and we all fell in love with the baby goat and kitten. The beds were so comfy and we had all the kitchen supplies needed to cook up a scrumptious breakfast including fresh eggs that we gathered in the morning. We will be back to visit again.

Great Farmhouse

We came to town with 4 of our kids age 1-9 to visit the Shrine. We found this great place to stay. The house was very nice. We arrived in the evening and were immediately greeted at the fence by some mini goats and a very nice farm cat who approached us at the car. The kids loved all the animals on the property from the ducks, chickens, goats and two cats. We love to come to town to visit the Shrine, we will definitely check out this Vrbo again! Thanks Ms. Jessica for the very nice stay!
