Growing up, I had two uncles who were dairy farmers so staying here was like a treat from my childhood. My oldest son actually watched a calf being born (the rest of us were on an evening hike). My youngest son and I are amateur birders and this locale is great for that. We saw bald eagles across the field and countless other varieties. We talked to a couple gentlemen on the road while on a walk who said it's some of the best bird watching in the area. (I think one said he was the owners fifth grade teacher). The location was perfect for the hikes we wanted to do: Cascade Pass, Thunder Knob, Sauk Mtn. The home itself is darling. Antiques everywhere. It has everything you need. I was a big fan of the muslin blankets as throws and on the beds, so much so I added them to my cart on Amazon to get during Prime Days.
