This stay was so refreshing. Walter & Mae’s Farmhouse is so picturesque, well furnished, so quaint and clean, we really enjoyed our stay so much! Such nice and considerate Hosts! The neighbors so open and genuine, the cows in the pastures, the trails, too many nice things to list. We will definitely return!
We enjoyed our stay at the farmhouse over Thanksgiving. It was a few miles from my family’s house and easy to get to. They had all we needed and it was very clean. We especially enjoyed watching all the cows in the morning from the porch and right outside the kitchen window. Beautiful mountain views too. Good WiFi connection. Just make sure you screenshot the access code before getting there because there is no service until connected.
We loved staying at Walter and Mae's farmhouse! It was clean and well stocked with bedding, towels, and kitchen tools. The setting was so lovely and picturesque! We walked the loop several mornings, and really enjoyed the quiet charming area.
I enjoyed the summer at this very nice country cottage. The home is very clean and comfortable and had all the amenities needed for my stay. The area is safe and quiet. The farms on either side had cattle that I enjoyed watching and getting to know their habits. I made friends with some of the cows by feeding them carrots and apples every day.
The neighbors were awesome and made feel at home, I will miss them. I highly recommend “Walter & Mae’s Farmhouse”.
