This was a perfect place for a mini-vacay meet-up with friends. From the comfortable beds, well appointed kitchen, bathrooms and hang out spaces, to the ample (and ready) hot tub we loved every minute of our stay.

Our stay was absolutely perfect. We chose Broken Pitchfork Farm as our wedding venue back in april, The hosts were outstanding and super accommodating in letting us tour inbetween guests. The moment we saw the place in person we fell in love. Upon arrival the house was spotless, the yard was well kept and the hot tub was clean and fresh. We had more than enough room when getting ready for our big day and were able to section off the primary bed/bath for our bridal suite and the other two rooms for the groom and groomsmen to get ready. Our wedding went flawless with guests utilizing the yard games that are provided and admiring all the farm animals. We had several interactions with Dave who was out maintaining the property and he was so incredibly kind and friendly. Dave recommended a few spots for barhopping and kept us up to date on events going on nearby. We also invited him to join us for our ceremony which he was very excited about. Heather reached out to us a few times and was super friendly in the communications we did have. We couldn’t have picked a better venue. I cannot recommend this property enough and will be sharing it with all my friends.

Everything we needed
This is a great place for a group of friends! Open kitchen, dining and living area. Three king bedrooms and a loft with beds. Hot tub was amazing! And then the added bonus visual of the goats, chickens and cats. Very clean and organized place. Responsive owner. Our group would go back again.
