Great return stay
We loved staying at the "cow house" again this year! We had a couple hiccups with the thermostat/heating the first day but Lesa + Fred were persistent in getting the problem fixed. Love the fireplaces and giant living spaces!

Great space for a family holiday
Expansive accommodation for a family holiday getaway. Unique decor and private feel of the property for privacy and escape the everyday hustle and bustle. Some quirks and issues of perhaps the property is not used frequently and needing a little TLC however easily overcome if you have the desire to look past and enjoy time with family.

Awesome family getaway in the country.
We stayed for a week to celebrate the holidays with our children and grandchildren. The kids loved frisbee golf set up on the property. The big dining room table was the perfect Place for family dinners and game night. The beds were super comfortable. Our stay was amazing.

Thanksgiving tradition
We were able to find the property easily. Google Maps led us right to the house. The house was clean and well organized. If you have a big group or multiple families with children, this is an IDEAL space. We were a group of seven with two dogs (4 adults, 3 children). The master bedroom is a really relaxing space. It was so peaceful sitting in front of the fireplace and reading. There are THREE big eating surfaces. Two dining tables and a large bar. We used one of the tables as a craft and game table and the other two for meals. I don't have anything negative to say. I do have one wish though! We love to hike and that is one of the reasons we chose this property. There is a lot of space to explore, but our group really wished we had a map of the property. We didn't know where the property lines were, or if there was somewhere we shouldn't be. A general map would have been nice. Our stay was great and I highly recommend this place if you like a little more seclusion on your trips.

Farmhouse Getaway
I was pleasantly surprised at how unique and comfortable the interior was. This home is so charming and welcoming. Our host went out of her way to accommodate us and was so friendly and curtious. The farm and surrounding acreage is so beautiful. We did get some snow and it was very nice to see they had plowed allowing us easy access to the back property. It was an absolute joy to be able to stay at such a nice property. We will definitely be back! 5 Stars ☆☆☆☆☆ Todd

Clean and spacious and comfortable and quiet
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean, the kitchen was well appointed, the checkin process was simple, and the host was a great communicator! There was plenty of space in each room and the beds were super comfortable. The yard was beautiful and we saw deer in the fields and lots of birds. There was very little traffic and the area is quiet.

We have stayed at this property before, and rented again. We love the remote location, which is still close to shopping, restaurants etc. We are always sad to leave. Owners/managers are very accommodating and helpful.

Howell Vacation
The bad: Starting from driving to the property, the main bridge to get to this house was out so we had to find another way around that took 15 minutes. We arrived there and I had to contact the property manager since the keys were never sent, I mentioned the bridge and I was told that has been out for years. Walking into the home, there where spider webs, spider’s , black flying beetles and mosquitos everywhere. Someone had left all the windows open about 1” throughout the entire house. My wife and I spent hours cleaning. The property was listed as 300 acres and to enjoy the trail’s. We went looking for trails but most of the property was farm land and there is a note to stay off the crops. The good: the house is beautifully redone. There is tons of space for the family to enjoy. The beds were super comfortable!! I think the jetted bathtub was great! It was super helpful that there was a pen for the dogs to go in outside.

Beautiful Home in the Country
This home was perfect for our family holiday stay. The house is beautifully decorated, roomy (we had 5 adults and 2 dogs), the kitchen is well equipped and we had great fun cooking and hanging out together. The bedrooms matched the rest of the house in beauty and the beds were very comfortable. The property has nice trails for hiking with lots of wildlife. And the added bonus for us was a lit Christmas tree greeting us when we walked in! Great hosts that pay attention to detail and have great communication.

Small gathering at this place was perfect.
The home is large but cozy. The kitchen is large and the house easily accommodated our group of 15 for our gathering. The bedrooms are beautiful. Having full wi-fi and TV’s in all rooms was a plus. The home is in a true country setting. I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy a hike on the property. We will definitely be back. The host had great communication too.

The perfect cozy getaway!
The property and the home are beautiful! The farmhouse was very cozy and felt like home. The attention to detail of the decor of the home was amazing! The host Lesa was always available and checked on us upon checking in, and during our stay, up until checking out. The home was furnished for comfort inside and out. Plenty of outside seating on the patio and around the fire pit. Each bedroom had a smart TV and air conditioning, and the master bedroom has a balcony for watching the sunrise. Even a large kennel for you fur babies! This is a great location for a quiet getaway any time of year!
