Lessie was very responsive and sensitive to our wellbeing due to the cold weather driving. Her spot was simple, clean, and the food was delish.

We absolutely LOVED this place! The cabin was impeccably clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. We came with our 2 year old and she had so much fun on the farm. It is one of the most beautiful places I’ve been to and the animals were so sweet. Not to mention, best hosts ever. We will definitely be back!

If you're looking for an off grid spot to reconnect with nature and get in touch with your roots, this is the place! Byo heat and entertainment, lol, but a fun little cabin and surprisingly close to everything!
