WELCOME
We encourage our guests to disconnect and unwind while staying at our Inn. With no distractions such as televisions or internet access you’ll be able to truly enjoy the natural beauty of the smells, sounds, sights of rural farm life. Hear our rooster crow and watch them nest in trees at dusk. Watch the goats and sheep play in pastures. Collect free-range eggs. Cut flowers or stroll out to
barn. See the occasional horse and buggy trot by. Live rather than text. Enjoy your stay in our renovated farmhouse that was initially a log cabin built in the 1800’s. It is perfectly nestled in between pastures and trees and is a short walk to our gardens and a beautiful bank barn. EVENTS

Gardens planted by our program participants are especially plentiful in the warmer months. Two pastures around the Inn provides a place to play for our goats, sheep and ducks. Our free-range chickens and rooster as well as our goats sometimes find shelter within our bank barn. On hot days, guests can enjoy a soak in our outdoor pool. Come evening, step outside for the firefly show and listen to the crickets. After a comfortable night’s rest, enjoy a breakfast prepared by our participants. Guests are welcome to play with our resident cat, feed the animals, gather eggs and cuddle with our rabbits. Take a stroll down the driveway. Enjoy a picnic just outside of the Inn by our summer kitchen.
