Rescue animal farm

This farmhouse is in a rural area of Columbiaville with many varieties of animals wandering around! All very friendly! It sets way off the road and you have to manually open a gate to enter/ leave! The farmhouse beds are comfortable and plenty of room to sit for groups! There are no chairs around the bonfire so that was disappointing! Big front porch tho to sit on and watch the animals roaming around.

Good location for a getaway but a few caveats

Overall, the location was remote and quiet (what we had hoped for) and the house was spacious. The overall property was great and backs up to Holloway Reservoir. There were many things that were a bit rough around the edges, rougher than should be expected, like missing siding on the back of the house, chewed up and scratched doors and trim throughout, loose boards on the deck, etc., but it was expected to be a bit less refined and more rural, so it wasn’t a deal breaker. The animals milling about, specifically the goats (and the baby goat most of all) were our two girls favorite part of the whole weekend. The fireflies in the field behind the house was also wonderful. We had rented the property for my niece’s small wedding. We had hoped the barn would be done before hand (as Maurine had promised) but construction delays happen, so we made adjustments and it worked out in the end. The only real negative was miscommunication with Maurine around her bringing up additional fees we needed to pay the evening before we left (beyond the rental fees through VRBO, which we had paid on time and in full). It left a large mark on an otherwise wonderful weekend. Hopefully, that issue won’t happen with any future events that she hosts. Due to the miscommunications, we would definitely not be interested in renting this property again, but would say that it is good for a small group getaway.

Family Vacation 2023

Maurine was wonderful, the kids learned so much and we enjoyed ourselves so much we are going back next year. This was such a interesting vacation, being one with the animals. If you want a vacation that is a bit different, I highly recommend a stay here.

Girls weekend

This was a huge house with three levels, there was 11 of us and we were never on top of each other. spent a lot of time on front porch and back deck. The animals were fun, one of the girls made a new friend with the Donkey. Host was great, and right there on property when you needed her. there is three bathrooms, one on each level. Really enjoyed our trip.
