We enjoyed our stay so much. We were in town for a funeral and it was so nice to watch all of the animals during our sad time. There was plenty of room for our family to visit and play games together. The host was very accommodating and good communication. Such a beautiful house. We loved everything about it

This property was great for a family to stay and enjoy each other. I have stayed at many other places and have never had a kitchen so well stocked. We cooked every night and never had trouble finding what we needed. The animals made us smile everyday. I could not have asked for a better place.

Maurine was wonderful. She was always available to answer questions. Her home is beautiful and so comfortable. This was a unique opportunity to interact with all of the rescue animals that are all so well cared for. We are looking forward to staying again in the future.

Maurine was a fantastic host! Her farm was everything as described and it provided the perfect getaway for friends celebrating a 50th birthday. The home was beautiful and had everything needed…the eclectic decor added to the charm! The animals were so fun to watch and you never knew who was going to greet you when you walked out.

Perfect place for a planning retreat

A church staff planning retreat for our Christmas events for next year. It was the perfect place and everything we needed. Love also the animals and while it was bitter cold and snowing all week not just the view was incredible but the animals were still all around the property. It was a winter wonderland and wonderful animals just made it that much better. Its definitely a place we can highly recommend.

Perfect Place for the Event

The property is fairly remote, which, to me, is especially nice! It was very welcoming and cozy. Maurine is a wonderful hostess meeting our needs and offering horse rides for my two grandkids. I was here for my dad's funeral. So, all the animals and comfort of the home were very nice. I loved our stay and would definitely recommend this beautiful place.

Very relaxing place to stay. Nine of us from 18 years to 70 years, we all enjoyed walking around and visiting with the animals. The star of the show was certainly Tina, the goat. She visited the front porch often. If we weren’t there to give her immediate attention, she would often just relax in the chair till we got there. We also walked back to the water a couple times. Saw several deer and a bench to watch the water. Clean and comfortable. Well stocked kitchen for fixing meals.

Perfect - Even Better Than Hoped For!!

Such a great property! My kiddo was in heaven with all the friendly animals (we were too)! And the house - is Amazing! So many beautiful areas to sit and visit - inside and out! The beds were comfortable, the atmosphere was relaxing. Maurine was extremely responsive, friendly and helpful! The extra thought with the shampoo and conditioner, plenty of linens, condiments in the fridge (on top of a fully stocked kitchen!), the firewood. It felt like a family member had prepared ahead for us to visit. We definitely hope to stay here again in the future! So highly recommended!
So many critters to meet and visit with!

Farmhouse stay

The house is beautiful and comfortable and has all the amenities we needed to cook meals. Being on a farm with retired horses, sheep and goats was fun -- my daughters and mother all enjoyed feeding the horses with finger carrots. And Maurine explained everything and was very responsive to questions we had. We had a lovely two nights there.
