Summary: This place is a true gem! Clean, well stocked and full of fun things to do in the house and around the area! I can't say enough great things about the accomodations, Joan's communication, the coziness and home away from home feeling this place has! Thank you so much for sharing your family's special place with us! We will definitely be back in other seasons, but the sledding WAS AWESOME in winter!
Erica S. Jan 27, 2025 09:41:37 PM
Summary: This property was just perfect for four friends who are moms and wives to just get away and be together for a weekend and the checkin and check-out times are awesome! It allowed for us to get a full day in with each other to catch up and just be ourselves with nobody to take care of! It was perfect and we will definitely be back!

Summary: Hosted a bachelorette party there for 6 girls. 17 -26 years old. We were close enough to get out for the day for a trip to Galena for a fun scavenger hunt. Then came back home to craft and play games. We were able to order food from JJ and Freddie's with a short drive to pick up and bring back. Home had everything we could ask for and more. The breakfast was a huge bonus for us too. We will be booking again to enjoy all seasons. Host was top notch from beginning to end of reservation, home had lots of attention to detail to it leaving us feeling high end with comforts of home.

Summary: Our stay at the farmhouse was excellent! So relaxing. My father has Parkinson’s and my mom helps take care of him. My wife and wanted to get them away from the stress. My wife is also a disabled veteran and deserved some relaxation as well. Our hosts made this possible for us! We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the farmhouse was so nice. Any questions I had were immediately answered. Hosts are wonderful!

Summary: The property was clean and very well equipped. Joan and Jean made sure we had breakfast when we arrived. They left milk, juice, eggs and water in the fridge plus cheerio, snacks, toasts Nutella and more! They were very responsive. Beds were comfortable. My kids loved saying hi to cows each day. Very beautiful surroundings. We recommend staying at the farm house.
