Rustic Bucolic farmhouse

Lovely views of the cows and mountains. Part of the house was built in the 1700's with original timbers. It is on a dirt road. Charming not modern

Cozy, Spacious Home!

We had a large group of 16 (and two dogs) at this home for 2 nights. There was plenty of room for all, and we loved the charm of the home! Jenny was amazing and immensely helpful throughout the whole process!

Beautiful Views and Historic Charm

Our family loved spending Thanksgiving at Quarry Hill Farm. We loved looking out the picture window on to the cows in the pasture, playing games by the gas fire, cooking in the well stocked kitchen, dining at the large table, using all three of the largish hangout spaces, reading in the comfy chairs, taking walks along the dirt road right out the door. It was a great house for a large family gathering with room enough for readers, gamers, and talkers.

Beautiful pastoral setting!

We had a wonderful weekend at Quarry Hill Farm. The farmhouse was wonderful amd rustic, it felt historic, warm and cozy and the setting was beautiful. It was plenty big for our group of 8 guys. We enjoyed hearing the cows lowing by the pond at breakfast. The area is so dark at night that the stars were amazing. Our host Jenny was warm, super friendly and very helpful. At her suggestion we walked up the road and bought yogurt from the neighboring farm, which was delicious. We would definitely stay there again!

Wonderful house but it needs a little TLC

The Twelve adults in our family had a great time . The house easily accommodated all of us with room to spare. Kitchen well stocked with cooking supplies. Beautiful views from all of the windows. Lovely spot What a nice surprise to find a crib for our 2 1/2 year old granddaughter. We’ll have fond memories of our time in Pownal

Comfortable place for a large group

We had a great weekend at Quarry Hill Farm. The house itself is large with beautiful views of the surrounding land. The beds were comfortable with clean linens. The common areas are a bit "lived in" but we didn't mind because it allowed us to feel relaxed with our kids and dog running around. We had a great, casual weekend with a large group

Grace in the storm

In true "can do" fashion Jenny didn't let a little thing like a massive storm with downed trees, and power outages stand in the way of our visit. She provided us with alternative housing that allowed us to stay together, and focus on the wedding we were there to attend. Jenny is the very model of a modern major general!

Decompressing Stay at a Legitimate Farmhouse

Our stay at Quarry Farms was amazing! Our kids had the best time exploring all the rooms (including finding a hidden staircase). The view from the backyard is gorgeous. Jenny had some great recommendations for nearby things to do, such as getting fresh yogurt and touring a farm, but we mostly enjoyed relaxing at the house. The best part of the trip by far was Jenny. She was so helpful and responsive. We would absolutely stay here again!

What a gem!

This place was amazing. There's as much to take in inside as there is outside. The house itself is huge and the perfect combination of rustic farmhouse and cabin/lodge vibes. The outside feels as though you're right in a LL Bean ad, views for days. Beds were super comfortable, towels and linens also very high quality. Jenny was also the best and most organized host. She really made this an "experience" that felt like a true vacation. We definitely hope to be back later this year.
