If you love the mountains, the cool nights and warm sunny days filled with scenes of country life, peace and quietness, this is the place for you and your family and friends. The farm land is still rented, so cattle will be moving around mornings and evenings - making this a true country home. This home is over 60 years old and is comfortable, but older. The home is being updated weekly and we welcome your recommendations. Either way, you will find comfort and relaxation. Contact us to inquire about reservations.

About the host

Hosted by Owner/Manager

Host profile image
I grew up in this country cottage and spent many wonderful years in the area. I moved from the area when I married and then my children spent many wonderful years visiting their grandparents on this property. My brothers and I wanted to keep a home place, but still have the property used and enjoyed by others.

Why they chose this property

This is a very special property with many memories and always a place to get a way from it all, but so close to major functions in the local college towns. It also allows a group to stay with their pets with large fenced in back yard, while being the opposite direction of traffic.

What makes this property unique

The beautiful view of the mountains, the peaceful sounds of the Sinking Creek, the coziness of the living room and game room, the large fenced in back yard.
