Great Little Farm House

This property is obviously brand new and so cool I would like to build one. Front and rear decks, amazing sunsets and sunrise views. Close enough to town but far enough to be private. All the amenities you need, fully stocked kitchen. Internet and even USB chargers on lamps next to your bed. Large showers, large bedrooms. Will stay here again!

Armadillo Cabin

This house was awesome, new, clean, beautifully appointed. We enjoyed it so much! The porches on front and back were great, we enjoyed sitting out there for coffee in the mornings and wine in the evenings. There’s only one thing I would recommend, add blinds or window coverings on living room windows. Anyone sleeping on the couch bed would appreciate not having the bright sunlight streaming in early in the morning and would prefer the privacy after dark.

This was a fabulous cabin and we enjoyed the quiet solitude and beautiful countryside. The covered front and back porches were well used and made sitting outside very nice. We look forward to a return visit and hopefully soon.

Just like in the photos!

This new adorable cabin was clearly well-thought out, from the floor plan, spacious living space, fully equipped kitchen and tasteful decor. It was easy to find even though it felt like we were in the middle of nowhere and there's a Super Walmart less than 10 minutes away in case you forget anything from home or need groceries.
