Wonderful little house!

Stayed here for a week with my family and I would highly recommend this as a retreat. House was exceptionally clean, very comfortable, and had everything we needed. Host also left a local bottle of wine, which was very thoughtful! Host owns a farm stand within a minute's walk from the house and we had fresh peaches every day. Loved it. The only reason I gave a 4 star rating other than a 5 star rating is because 1. It advertises that vineyards are within walking distance of the house. This isn't quite correct. It would be a long walk on a main rural road. Not hugely safe to walk, I'd say. 2. It's not clear from the pictures that there's a house next door. While the neighbors were lovely, we weren't expecting to be so close to another house. Also, note, it's a small house; rather cozy! If you know what to expect, though, this is a wonderful place to stay. Very quiet. Beautiful scenery and views of the vineyards. Close to great places to eat and try different wines. Can also use as a base to local state parks...which are amazing! Would definitely recommend.

Pleasant stay

This is a great place to stay. It is adjacent to many wineries and close to walkins glen which has many restaurants and a wonderful state park to hike. The kitchen is well stalked, bath towels plentiful, and they even had soap and shampoo provided. The beds are also nice with each of the room having there own window air conditioner/fan. The one bathroom is a challenge, but we knew that going in! A real charming property with no complaints. The house adjacent to the rental is occupied, but we never saw them.

The farm house was great, just like the pictures! Fred was responsive and friendly and got us a tour of the farm. The house was clean and very comfortable for 4 adults, 2 kids and a dog! Location is close to town and lots of wineries/breweries/restaurants. We will definitely plan to come back!

Loved it! It is a 1940s farmhouse, beautifully situated in the wine country, beautifully updated and nicely appointed. Nice grounds, feeling of being "away from it all". We will stay here again!!
