Reviews
"A quiet retreat in a quaint farmhouse surrounded by examples of pioneer homesteader buildings and nature. This home sleeps six people easily with plenty of room for cooking visiting and relaxing all for a modest fee. I highly recommend it. While here, check out Norskedallen Nature and heritage center and hiking trails."
"A beautiful place to detach and relax for a few days!"
"Probably should update the printed directions but the google location is good. We rented the house for a week in November. It was snowy and they kept the road clear and plowed. Rental farmhouse worked out great, more than enough room, right price, and very clean. Perfect retreat."
"The place is very clean and comfortable. A nice dose of history. Suggestions: fix the slippery stairs and add more specifics to the printed directions (gps wont take you to the location). Thanks for a great stay!"
"We stayed at the farmhouse through air b&b for a weekend for a wedding in the area so this review is from that viewpoint. The house: It's a really nice old house, everything is still pretty square and the floors are flat and not sinking. The kitchen has dishes and utensils to make your own food which was really nice. Everyone agreed the beds were comfortable. It's also pretty warm (first weekend in November) for being an old house. It has a modern furnace and the windows are new and tight. The property: the buildings have placards describing their history which was really nice. You can see into the windows even though everything is closed so you still get a glimpse into their past. There's also a bunch of walking trails we didn't get the chance to explore but judging by the country side I would guess their nice. Overall: I'd stay there again, it was reasonable split 6 ways and it was a relaxing quiet stay."
