Amazing Stay

This is such a great place to stay for a family. Debbi and Craig have made the house feel like a home away from home and the farm itself is a wonderland for kids! Getting to interact with the animals and watch them all day makes for great vacation memories!

The timber house is beautiful! Our favorite thing to do each morning and evening was to sit on the porch and watch the animals. The host, Debbi, was so kind. We truly enjoyed visiting the animals and learning all about them from Debbi. The general store was amazing as well with something for everyone. We will definitely be back for another visit! We miss all of the animals already!

Best vacation ever!

This was our family’s favorite vacation and definitely will return. We loved the house, property, animals, and being able to bring our dog was absolutely wonderful for us. Debbi is a one of a kind host The house is beautiful and so well-stocked (kitchen utensils and spices, books, games, puzzles, and more) . I had everything I needed for making family meals and even picked fresh blueberries from the bushes for our pancakes! The surrounding towns offer a lot of great activities (biking trails, hiking, zip lining, swimming) but the best part was the time spent on the property walking the trail, hanging out with the animals, relaxing on the porch and visiting with Debbi. It truly felt like we went to stay at a friend’s for a visit. This was our perfect family vacation and cannot wait to go back.
Brushing Frick & Frack was a favorite evening activity
Hugs from Ernie!

A Tranquil Stay on a Beautiful Property

We absolutely loved every aspect of our stay. Debbi was warm and inviting, the cabin was incredible, and the property beautiful. We truly enjoyed being able to bring our dogs with us and they loved the huge fenced in yard and watching the kunekune! Debbi gave us a personal tour of the cabin, the property and her lovely farm. We had fun feeding peanuts to the Angora Goats, giving belly rubs to the pigs, and playing with Sadie, Tank and Eli! We cannot rate this property more highly and look forward to our next visit!

Farmlife Fantasy come true

To say that we were delighted with out stay is an understatement. Debbi is the most wonderful host and the sweetest person. She took so much time to show us around and introduce us to the lovely animals. Our kids still talk about Spirit and the Mini horses all the time. And dont even get me started on the house! It does not get any more beautiful. Everything is very high end and perfectly clean. The General Store is dreamy!!! Try the carrot cake ice cream and enjoy the Gem Mine. Thank you so much for your generosity and hospitality. If we did not live halfway across the globe, you would see us all the time 3 we truly hope to be back!
