About this country house rental

Centered between Boxley and Ponca, the Villines Farmhouse is less than a five minute drive from the Lost Valley hiking trail, a very short drive to Ponca where one can rent canoes and float the Buffalo River, view the majestic bluffs of Steel Creek, hike Center Point trail just above Ponca to Hemmed in Hollow and Goats Bluff, or hike the Buffalo River hiking trail. From the front porch during rut season you can view herds of elk in the fields bordering the Buffalo River and watch bull elk spar over the harem. The fields viewed from the front porch are the prime place for the elk to gather during the fall and winter.
The Villines farmhouse was remodeled in 2023, It comes with luxury bedding, a full kitchen, three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The Villines farm is also 100% offset with solar energy.

This was the perfect getaway for my husband's 50th birthday. We had 8 people in our party and everyone slept comfortably. Accommodations were great! Mattie put in a lot of careful thought on the comfort of guests - no detail was left out! We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent place to stay. Need to get your check in info before you get there because there is no signal once you get there to be able to access it. Location was great to paddle Boxely or Poca. Kyle’s Landing was good too but a bit of a drive. The accommodation were fabulous!!!! Loved the hot tub and fire pit after a day on the river.

The house was clean, nicely furnished with a fully stocked kitchen. The fenced in backyard was perfect size for my small dog to explore. It included a hot tub, propane gas grill, picnic table and outdoor sofa. I loved to sit there in the morning and listen to the birds in the morning and watch the sunset in the evenings from the hot tub. All of the 5 star hikes are within a 15 minute drive as well as the upper Buffalo River.

Can not say enough wonderful things about this place. The location is of course fantastic. We were able to see elk just up the road both days we were there, but the property is also really fantastic. We really enjoyed waking up and watching the cows across the street from our window or on the porch while drinking coffee. And maybe best of all, being greeted by and watching the friendly horses next door. The house is beautiful, clean, cozy and well appointed. From the fully stocked kitchen including spices, appliances, coffee bar, etc to games and toys for your kids and a hot tub. Anything you could want or need was available. Had a couple questions before check in and the host was very quick to respond. Would definitely stay again and again!
