Great weekend away

We had a really lovely time in this farmhouse. It is really situated away from it all, had lots of space to spread out. Photos are accurate. The porch was nice to sit out and have our coffee.

Great Getaway Vacation

We had three families stay and our time here was wonderful. The heating in the house was incredible and kept us really warm. Our dogs enjoyed the large land area around the house. Nearby are two ski areas which our kids enjoyed. The house was isolated, very enjoyable and had great views!
