Historic gem
“This looks like this should be a Taylor Swift album cover!” That was one quote from a member of our party. Charming. Full of character. It was so fun to stay here!! What a privilege to have been able to stay here. Host was so accommodating. Just loved the whole experience!!

Beautifully remodeled farmhouse.
It was JMU graduation weekend and we booked this home for 3 families to stay and celebrate a granddaughter's graduation. The home was clean and neat. The kitchen was amazing (we cook). The kitchen had everything you could ever imagine and was an excellent place to socialize. We enjoyed our stay and would book this place again in a heartbeat for more JMU weekends. Maybe a 10-15 min drive to Harrisonburg.

Beautiful, historic gem plus convenience to JMU!
Chose site for its convenience to JMU, its spacious accomodations for our family's stay for graduation, got the added benefit of experiencing a real working farm and beautifully renovated historic home... would definitely stay again!
