Adult owners were not on site when we arrived but we were greeted by two extremely polite and enthusiastic young brothers and two very friendly dogs who helped us get parked and gave us a tour of the bathroom and laundry. The location is remote and about 30 minutes from interstate 90. With a mix of dirt and paved country roads. This is a working farm with all that entails. The friendly farm dogs were very interested in their guest so were always present. Which did cause our dog (who has some social issues) some anxiety. Cell service is spotty, and we were extremely thankful when the brothers told us of approaching storm. The bathroom was very nice and appreciate on a very hot day.

My wife and I loved staying at Sarah and her farm. We stayed one night and it was perfect for our 32 foot school bus! Sarah greeted us upon anrrival and showed us where to access the shower and washer and dryer. The bathroom was newly renovated and extremely clean with incredible water pressure and temperature in the shower. We brought our two dogs and walked them on the property with our leashes. We bought a dozen of eggs from Sarah and they were scrumptious. Will definitely stay again!
