Our travel work crew for Hucks gas staions
The only complaint was the water/sewer smell but the property is located in the country so that is probably why, otherwise it is a very nice place. We have enjoyed it!

Barndominium weekend
We had a wonderful weekend, we picked up our granddaughter who’s attending university in Fort Wayne, she loved the treats that were provided. The barn loft was just better than advertised so we will definitely go back for our future as she’s only in her freshman year.

Great place for visiting North Manchester
It was great to find a 3br place in North Manchester with a wonderfully stocked kitchen that had everything you could need to make meals. I imagine would be really fun to use the pond in the summer! The only issues we had is my daughter was too tall for the tiny bunkbeds (made for small children) and there are no blinds on the windows. Being we were visiting from west coast when the sun came up it felt like we were waking up at 4am which was not good. The place seems (and smells) brand new and is fully stocked with towels etc.

I am born and raised in Indiana. Passionate about homemaking - beekeeping, making maple syrup, cows, chickens, gardening, canning, fruit trees, etc. Although I relocated to San Diego, California, my parent's still have a home and property that is big enough to share with guests. We are excited to host because our home is a stomping ground for community service and ministry. Our hearts and home is big enough to share with you.
