"This home is so lovely! We felt like time stood still for us. The house is quaint and had plenty of space for everyone to move around comfortably. The yards and country spaces still the busy world and the hosts were wonderful. I only wish we’d had more time. The house and property felt like a great big breath of fresh air. I hope to travel through here again!"

"We stayed at the Carriage House for a mini honeymoon and had a wonderful time! Very quiet and beautiful location with some awesome animals to interact with it. The Carriage House felt very cozy and intimate and we thoroughly enjoyed our time staying. The finishing touch was the homemade pumpkin bread and gifts for our marriage! Had a phenomenal time."
