Beautiful, relaxing stay!
We had a wonderful stay here! We enjoyed the landscaping, the quiet mornings with tea on the porch and deck and the beautifully crafted home. The hosts are amazing and gave us a tour of the farm animals. This is a great place to stay!

Fantastic Farmhouse
This is our second stay at Mim’s farmhouse and it was fantastic as usual! Mim and her husband are so friendly and accommodating, the property and grounds are lovely, and everything about staying in the farmhouse is clean and comfortable, especially with 2 young children. We can’t wait to stay there again next summer!

Great Place
Love this property and the owners. They are very friendly with great communication. This is our second trip back and we enjoyed it as much as our first. My little guy enjoys the time with the animals and getting to feed them is a plus. Great memories and definitely will be back next year.

Peaceful Paradise
What a lovely property. The house is super adorable and extremely clean. Very nicely stocked and equipped with everything you need.

Absolute gem!
This beautiful home boasts all kinds of rustic charm. With 2 bedrooms and 3 baths, it is very accommodating for various size groups. Mim keeps everything spotless and so homey. It is tucked away from the hustle and bustle so be prepared to drive to many points of interest but the solitude is well worth it.

The Perfect Country Weekend Escape!
My friends and I booked this home for a weekend escape from the city over Presidents Day. It was everything we could have wanted and more! First, the check in process was seamless. The land was so beautiful and the house was spectacular. Ethel, Jenny, Sandy, Fuzzy, and Zoey made us feel very welcome and we could not get enough of them. We wanted to take them all home with us! Miriam and Omar were so kind and responsive. Omar even showed us around the farm one morning. We will absolutely be back! Would recommend this stay to anyone.

Clean cozy relaxing getaway
We had such a lovely time in a beautiful home away from home. The guest house is filled with everything you need and want in a getaway. It was cozy, clean and perfect for a family or two. They had toys for the kids to enjoy, a playset and so much fun to explore. They've thought of everything to make your visit enjoyable. We'd love to come back in the future!

Best relaxing vacation
This is not our first time here, we stayed with my kids and my in-laws, this house is just so beautiful and cozy, even my teens found themselves reading books and falling asleep by the fireplace, we all enjoyed the peaceful farm surroundings, took walks around the neighborhood, played and pet all the awesome animals, went to local stores and ate some fresh veggies and Amish made foods, we just feel so comfortable and relax every time we are there, the owners are absolutely lovely and accommodating, truly wonderful people. We feel blessed to be able to have a vacation that is not just a place to sleep but an amazing experience overall. We recommend this place 110%. Thank you, from the Heidingers.

Pictures don’t do this property justice!
Miriam was so wonderful and her guest house was beautifully decorated, immaculately clean, and smelled so homey! This home is so much more beautiful in person. It is also perfect for children! Miriam had toys, a high chair, a pack n play, veggie tales videos, a playground, and animals on their farm to see. My family greatly enjoyed our stay!

Country Hideaway
House was quaint old place that has been beautifully redone. It is out in the country and nice and peaceful. Layout of house was as described in listing but still a little awkward that both showers aren’t on the same floor with the bedrooms. There is a full bath with a beautiful stand-alone tub on the same floor with the bedrooms so if baths are your thing then it’s perfect. Owner was very nice and responsive throughout the whole process!
