Quiet Retreat

My friends and I enjoyed a quiet weekend girls trip at the farm house and were trying to think of excuses to go back with more people. This would be a great place for three families to meet up for games, meals, & catching up around the fire pit.

Great for friends

Loved this property and this neighborhood. We come to the area often and love staying near the river. The private river access is stellar (though I recommend driving down the hill to it). We also loved the sheep from the farm next door-- they were fun to watch in the mornings. Bathrooms were clean and beds were comfortable. We will definitely be back.

We had a great time in the country house! It was tastefully decorated and quiet. Everything you could possibly think of was in the kitchen allowing us to make normal family meals. I highly recommend this rental and plan on choosing it again!

Perfect Getaway

We really wanted a secluded little place to get away for our anniversary and this was perfect. We spent hours down by the water and only a couple kayakers passed each day. What a great trip. My wife loved the sheep.

If you love a country setting you will be right at home here; peaceful and relaxing. We enjoyed everything about the Farmhouse. The river was accessible and lovely and the summer kitchen was an extra bonus. Hosts were great! We would stay here again.

Fun on the River

My family and I loved every aspect of this property! The house offered more than enough room for our group and the layout was nice (big dining room for meals as well as a beautiful summer kitchen outside!), the bonfire pit was right next to the house, and the kids loved visiting the sheep and cows. Our favorite part was definitely the river: we've fished many parts of the Juniata Raystown branch and this was one of the best (TONS of good sized smallmouth and channel cats), with a nice mix of shallows and deep spots. The kids had a blast playing in the shallows too!

Relaxing family weekend

We had such a relaxing weekend staying at the farm house and the kids loved the animals! The house was spacious and cozy and very clean. We played some board games, grilled, used the summer kitchen and took walks down to the river. We also enjoyed the fire pit at night! Thank you!

This home has a lot of charm while being very functional at the same time. Everything was clean, the AC kept us cool, and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed seeing the sheep and cows right next to the house. We highly recommend choosing this beautiful farmhouse for your vacation!

Charming Farm House

This house was wonderful. The grounds are beautiful and so peaceful. The inside was so clean. We brought jetski's and went to Raystown Lake. My husband loved fishing in the river by the house. I loved the flowers around the house and the sheep! We will come back.
