Beautiful open spaces
Our family enjoyed this property with so many options like volleyball , cornhole, soccer and swimming in the pool. The property was very spacious and the children enjoyed just being able to run without boundaries.

Renters Beware!! Do not be fooled by the positive reviews!
My family and I evacuated due to a hurricane in September 2019. As a business owner and mother of 4, I was looking forward to some much needed relaxation and to be able to decompress from daily stressors. Other than a few minor issues, all was well the first couple of nights. It was quiet and no one bothered us. It was our last night that was disturbing. We were sitting by the pool while cooking out. Randomly, after being there several days, and this never occurring, the waterfall came on. This was about 9pm in the evening. Around 10pm I had gone into one of the cabins. Upon returning outside my 21 yr old daughter, visibly disturbed, told me of her strange encounter with the owners. The owners, popped out of the bushes and approached my daughter and her boyfriend, (the wife being in her robe) and began interrogating them about our departure the following day. They were very unfriendly and rude. It was apparent that the reason for the waterfall coming wad so that we could not hear them in the bushes, spying on us. Coincidentally, the waterfall shut off moments after they left. 🤔 Upset by what I was told - I sent a message to the owner asking if everything was okay. He responded, “of course”. I said nothing more. The next morning the wife stopped in at the main house where my mother stayed during our trip. Again, unfriendly, rude and insulting to even my 73 yr old mother. We checked out and went about our way trying to not let the odd, intrusive behavior of the owners ruin our whole experience. 1 week later I noticed the damage deposit was not returned to my card. I contacted the owner and he informed me, “the check was in the mail”. Odd. I’ve rented many places and never has the owner “mailed” me a check. I waited 3 days and after no check in the mail I contacted homeaway. I asked them if it was standard to mail a check for the return of a deposit and they said, “no”, and that they would inform the owner that it was not appropriate to mail checks to renters. 2 weeks later I finally received a check in the mail. The owner seems to be very passive aggressive and manipulative. I still do not understand their behavior but it was obvious that he was intentionally delaying the return of funds. I guess to add to our already stressful time while evacuating. Lucky for me I don’t live check to check so it did not hurt me as he intended. Very creepy, malicious, hateful people. You’ve been warned.

This guest need med emergency accommodations due to hurricane evacuations and our team worked very hard to accommodate. No one crept up on them but we did go back in the evening and check on them to make sure accommodations were satisfactory and they had no needs. We were given mixed requests about pool waterfall being on/off and tried to meet their needs. Thousands of guests have been through our family farm and never has anyone used those terms to describe our family. In terms of deposit payment, once we received the address to mail the payment- we sent the payment. Immediately. Why this guest decided to write an inaccurate and harsh review months later is a puzzle to us. We request future guests to read ALL our reviews on VRBO and FB and make their own decisions. After doing so, it may be clear who is “hateful and malicious”.

Great time, Great place!
This was our 2nd year. Thom is a wonderful host and the 12 Grandkids absolutely love it - so do their parents. We're already booked for next year. We highly recommend the Farm - you certainly won't regret it!

We enjoyed our stay, especially the pavilion area. The house was pleasant and adaptable.
The property is gorgeous. We enjoyed the views from the pavilion and spent time there. we also enjoyed the animals. The facilities were adequate with a little updating they could be even better. We would enjoy another visit to the farm, especially when we could utilize the pool.

Beautiful area, well kept, nice appointments.
Lovely pool, nice buildings and a good location. Only problem was the distance from the cottage to the 3 cabins and pool. Also, when we did get together for a meal, there was only the one table by the pool. Loved the rocking chairs on the porches of all the buildings and the helpfulness of Thom Bogle and his wife. We had a great family time and celebration of my 90th birthday. Thank you

Excellent place for a family reunion.
This was a perfect place to get the kids away from cell phones, and allow them opportunities to play with each other, feed animals, fish, and sit by the fire to tell stories.

This was a wonderful place to stay. This is an amazing place to spend time with kids and grandkids. It kind of forced the preteens to disconnect from their video games,iPads, etc and enjoy the great outdoors. ( too bad some of the adults could not seem to disconnect). Anyways property is exactly as described in terms of rooms and cabins. The property itself is stunning. We were all able to eat as a family every night inthe big barn. We grilled out every night and just made fixings to go along with the meats. The lake had plenty of fishing. The volleyball court was enjoyable family fun. I brought a lot of games for kids to play during day and they loved the huge pool. We also brought games for adults at night but there was plenty there also. The only critique I could offer is that the cabins could use some more utensils and basic cooking utensils but that can be remedied easily. There is plenty of dishes and drink ware. The big house is a wonderful place to gather for family breakfast and late night games. I would highly recommend and hope to book again in future.

Thank you for your generous comments and so pleased your stay at the farm was wonderful. We love hearing feedback--especially how we can improve. Sounds like a quick run to Wal Mart would make the kitchen areas even more useful. We hope to see you back at the Farm soon! The Bogle Family

This place is incredibly special!
I've never been to a more idyllic place with the people I love. The cabins and the cottage are so much roomier and nicer than any hotel room you're ever going to rent in this area. Meanwhile the pool, grills, and outdoor fireplace are simply perfect for a cookout ending in Smores consumption! If I had a daughter getting married I would beg her to have the reception on this magical property. The lighted , squared off area in front of the fireplace/band platform looks like something out of a movie wedding. The Bogels are fantastic people and have put their hearts and souls into this place. You get a palpable sense of it when you're there. Gather some families and find a way to book this place together. You'll have some great memories if you do. I promise!
