About this house rental
Our 100-year-old farmhouse has been lovingly renovated and will accommodate 6 guests. The farmhouse retains its character through its screen doors, heart-pine wood floors, period furnishings, and wood stove. Interior furnishings were chosen to provide the plain and simple comforts of the early 20th Century.
The back porch rockers afford practically the same view today as they have for one hundred years. The house, old barn and outbuildings create a setting for you to not just see the valley, but actually be a part of it.
You can be as active as you wish—or as inactive. Watch the sun wake up the valley, experience the amazing vistas of a light-free night sky, hike the many trails along the Buffalo River. Canoe, fish, cook, read, visit, explore or just laze around. This farmstay offers many ways for you to enjoy the Upper Buffalo River and the woodlands, pastures, streams, and bluffs that make up the historic Boxley Valley.
Accommodations include two bedrooms upstairs with a full bath and one bedroom downstairs with attached full bath. Common rooms include a sitting room upstairs, a living room downstairs, an eat-in kitchen, and two covered porches.
James Larkin Villines and his wife, Eliza, who built the home, did without electricity or running water until 1942; now, however, guests can enjoy central heat and air, telephone, and wifi.
We require advanced notice of at least 48 hours.

This is our second year to stay here for our spring retreat and we love this property!!! Convenient, clean, and consistent is how I would describe this property. We will be back again.

Adorable farmhouse! We really enjoyed our stay. It was a great location for the hiking we had planned while in the area. The house itself is great but know that it is an old farmhouse so align your expectations. WiFi is a bit spotty and we did not have cell service in the valley- not a complaint but just an fyi! We loved sitting on the porch in the morning and evening and watching Milo and the bulls. It was so peaceful…just what we needed! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook breakfast and dinner each day.Beautiful area and home!

I loved this property and even joked I was staying, moving in. The location was in perfect proximity to all the areas we wanted to visit. I sat on the back porch each morning to take in the sights ans sounds while eating breakfast. We enjoyed the yellow finches, ground hog, cows, horse, squirrels etc. I look forward to another stay.

We loved the house. It was so charming and cozy. We especially enjoyed the back porch in the mornings and evenings. The location an view is calm and peaceful.The cold hole was amazing! We were disappointed with a few issues: when we sat down at the kitchen table to eat, it was covered with ants. There was a very dirty runner on the table that was stained and full of crumbs and dried food. We found ant spray in the closet so we cleaned the table, wiping away the crumbs and ants, and sprayed the table legs with ant spray. There were also spiders and spiderwebs in the bathtub which I had to clean out before i could use it. Lastly, the grill was caked with food chunks (which we cleaned) and would not flame and heat as it should. Overall, we loved the house but, considering the cost for the weekend, expected to have fewer issues than we did.
