I really can’t say enough positive things about our stay in this beautiful, comfortable home. We were staying here to deal with some very difficult family issues, and from the first few minutes of being in this house we were comfortable. The hosts Charlotte, and her sister Susan were extremely welcoming and helpful during our stay. The house is comfortable, beautifully decorated, and very clean. We hope to come back to this house in the future.

Loved our stay at this perfectly appointed farmhouse.
We had everything we needed for a cozy vacation at the farmhouse. We had chickens, a kitty, deer and walking trails right outside the door. Our wonderful hosts supplied us with fresh eggs each morning. The house and surrounding property has an interesting and well documented history. It was charming and peaceful stay.

About the host

Hosted by Charlotte Lehan and Susan Harrison

Host profile image
Susan and Charlotte grew up in the other house on the property. Susan and Charlotte still live there. With Susan's husband, Pat, we took on the challenge of moving this little 1941 house in order to save it from demolition back in 2013. In the process we have learned a great deal about architectural restoration and we love to talk DIY with anyone who is interested! Talk about an adventure in moving!

Why they chose this property

This little farm house, originally located in what is now Villebois, was slated for demolition when we decided to move it 1.5 miles to sit next to its sister house, of similar vintage and style that Susan and Charlotte grew up in. It is an example of the best of 1941 craftsmanship in a modest farm home. In the process of moving it we made the updates necessary to offer all the amenities and technology that any discerning business or family traveler has come to expect.

What makes this property unique

If you have an interest in architectural history or renovation we are sure you will enjoy this property, but even if you do not know a salt box from a log cabin, you will enjoy the privacy, comfort, amenities, location, and access this property has to offer.
