An 11 seater swim spa/hot tub is situated on the side patio with an outdoor fireplace for those brisk nights and unbelievable views.

The space
The Homestead is our newest opportunity for larger groups to truly enjoy a country chic experience offering three separate lodging spaces on the same property. The Ranch House is the main house that is a 3 bedroom / 2bath , space and can sleep 6 guests. With two bedrooms and a semi-private 3rd sleeping area, this contemporary farmhouse style rancher can accommodate up to 6 overnight guests. The fully stocked, double chef kitchen is sure to inspire, and the surroundings are simply magic. A swim spa is situated on the patio with an outdoor fireplace. It has a fully stocked gourmet chef kitchen, gorgeous dining patio, and a back porch with a fireplace and gas grill. The property also offers an 11 seat swim spa hot tub.

In addition to the Ranch house, a Carriage House & Loft offers an open concept space in a remodeled barn and features a queen and twin bed, kitchenette, a full bathroom as well as an additional 3 twin beds in the loft; to sleep a total of 6. The private back porch overlooks gorgeous views and has an in-ground park style grill.

Lastly, The Homestead offers an additional storybook Cottage. This quaint space inspired by Roald Dahls 'Writing Hut' has a king bed and kitchenette and is perfect for a couple or individual.

Both, the Carriage House and Cottage structures have antique wood stoves to keep you warm on a cold winter's night. The Ranch House has a gas fireplace that is a beautiful feature in the home.

As long as the event barn isn't booked for an event, renters are welcome to read and relax under the barn or enjoy a cup of coffee. There is also plenty of room for everyone to gather in the main ranch house double kitchen or the dining room table which seats 12. There is ample seating on the back deck as well.
