Lives in Chesterhill, Ohio
My husband, Ken and I left the city years ago and have embraced county life for over 19 years. We are two creative souls who transformed an old farm site into something special which we call Feather Hollow. This is our life, our Shangri-La. We are excited to share our cottage & gardens on our 12-acre property along with the local area with guests. It is a scenic 25 minute drive from Athens. We look forward to meeting you.
