Spectacular Outdoor Nature Retreat
This is a very special site, which suited our hopes in every way. It was tucked into a very private spot, shaded by thick forest trees, w/ no campers nearby. We truly felt one with nature. The host has this set up wonderfully , with bbq prep table, grill, utensils, fire pit, benches etc. It feels like home, outdoors, with tons of space, just for us. The haycart, as an acommodation, was specatcular. We lived outdoors, with the sounds of the forest at night (the toads and frogs come alive with song!). I need to be honest, and say that, while the ad states it sleeps 4, it does not. There is a queen bed for 2, which was great. There is a daybed, but it is not covered from the rain, and it doesn't have a mattress. When we arrived, the daybed was set up with a bunch of wet outdoor pillows. Even if they had been dry, this didn't seem feasable for my kids to sleep on. Fortunately, we had over-planned and brought a cot, which we squeezed in next to the queen bed. Since we were able to solve this, we quickly moved on and had the most magical time here. The host is quite friendly and allowed my children to interact with her horses, chickens and turkey. She seems to delight in making the stay wonderful for guests. We enjoyed the trails, animals and sunsets across the cornfields. A spot to call home for a few days, away from the city life. We absolutely loved it!
