About this farm stay rental
Our farmhouse was built circa 1885 and the farm has been owned and maintained by the family for over 150 years. Five generations of our family have lived on the farm, and we are now making the farmhouse available for those needing a quiet, country retreat or vacation rental for an entire family looking for a place to stay while attending a wedding, family reunion or other special occasion in the area. The house is also ideal for those visiting the Clearfield area for recreational purposes. The quiet and peaceful setting would also be attractive for those who write. The home sits on nearly 200 acres consisting of farmed fields, grazing pasture for cattle, and forested areas bordering the property.
This century farmhouse has been lovingly renovated, modernized, and furnished with mixed period antiques and current day style, yet keeping with the character of a farmhouse built in the 19th century.
Our farmhouse has 12 rooms with 2 stories for your use, consisting of 4 bedrooms upstairs (one queen, three full size beds) and one downstairs bedroom with a twin bed & a sleeper sofa with the ability to sleep up to 10 people in the home.
There are 3 full size bathrooms (2 upstairs and 1 downstairs) with all towels and linens supplied. It has a modern kitchen equipped with all appliances and cookware.
This is a lovely vacation home for those wanting a quiet, comfortable home to enjoy for relaxation or for an entire family looking for a place to have extended time together.
Our home is non-smoking. Smoking is permitted outside or on the porch but not anywhere in the home.

This house is so amazing. If you are looking for a great place to get away from urban life, then this is your place. I grew up in the area, but moved to more urban areas a long time ago. I was looking for something that reminded me of my youth.
House is very spacious, five very comfortable bedrooms and three bathrooms. Loved the little treats that were left for us to snack on, just like the hospitality I was use to growing up with.
Susan is a wonderful host!
Kitchen is well stocked for any of your basic needs. Outside seating, front porch is very inviting.
I will be back again.

This house was absolutely perfect for the family of the bride to stay in. It was 15 minutes away from the venue, quiet and had plenty of room for all 9 of us to stay in. It had everything we needed for our 1 year old including toys and a high chair. We would highly recommend and would definitely stay there again

We LOVED our stay at the farmhouse. My 10 year old wants to learn more about farm life and she loved everything she found inside and around the property. She made friends with a cow as we hiked up to the top where we saw the gorgeous colors of the fall. The house was so perfect to reconnect with a few local family members we hadn’t seen in years. We enjoyed Bilgers Rocks while in town, a huge natural playground for big kids of any age. If you are looking for a place to spread out and enjoy nature, this is the house for you.

We were in town for a family event. The home was beautiful, it had everything we needed and more. The area was beautiful and the cows friendly! If we had stayed longer we would have taken advantage of more of the local offerings.

Home away from home
This was our second time staying at the farmhouse. It is a wonderful place to stay to get away from the hustle and bustle. Nice and quiet with the sound of horse and buggy every once in awhile. Very well stocked with everything you need. Susan is very sweet and there to help if you need anything. I highly recommend staying there, I know we will be back. It is now our go to place to visit home.

Book Club Reunion
We loved our stay at the farmhouse. We were a group of best friends, celebrating 20 years since the start of our book club. We came for Groundhog and Punxsutawney did not disappoint. What we loved the most though, was our time together at your beautiful, spacious, well supplied home. Thanks so much for the memories.

Happy 90th Birthday
The property was excellent for 5 Adults and a 6 and 8 year old to stay for Pap's 90th Birthday Celebration. Over the years we have stayed at numerous VRBO locations and this was the cleanest one ever. The owner went out of her way -- we arrived several hours after dark and she had the house open, and lights on. The house was warm and decorated for Christmas along with snacks on the counter. Each room in the house has its own thermostat with the exception of the sun room and the one bed room upstairs. There was an excellent supply of kitchen tools and small appliances. The home has plenty of towels and extra bedding. Our two grandsons spent time visiting the cows at the barn. This property was amazing. We are already talking about going back for another visit to this property. We would recommend this place -- giving it a 10 out of 10 rating!

We were so impressed with the Farmhouse. It was a charming comfortable spot for our family, very nicely decorated and immaculately cared for. Wish we were able to stay longer to enjoy the peaceful home. We loved the way the family has kept the history of the home, yet has updated it to offer modern comforts. It was a perfect choice for our weekend trip to Pa.

Great Place
If you appreciate nice older homes, this is the place for you. Very clean, beautiful home and property with everything you need. The owners go the extra mile to provide absolutely everything you need for a stay away from home. When you stay here you will see the extra attention to detail. We will be back again.

Wonderful location for a family get away.
This is the second time staying at this house and we plan to go back. The owner is quick to answer any questions and to suggest local spots/attractions. This house is kept very clean and is well stocked. The front porch was our favorite spot and the grounds are beautiful. We did some site seeing this trip at Bilgers rocks, Curwensville lake, DelGrosso's amusement park and to Clearfield. Wonderful location for a family get away!

We absolutely loved our stay! The property is beautiful and house is amazing. We spent the majority of our time on the front porch playing games. The bedrooms are cozy with very comfortable mattresses. We loved all the original furniture and decor in the home. I highly recommend this home for anyone. Thank you for a lovely experience!

A peaceful, away-from-it-all retreat
If you are looking for a peaceful, unique “away-from-it-all” vacation, look no further. The photos do not accurately portray how amazing this house is. It was like living in a museum for a week. The beautiful antique beds made our daughters feel like princesses. The front porch was amazing, and we thoroughly enjoyed hearing the horse drawn carriages go by throughout the day. We loved seeing the cows in the fields throughout the day and the view from the top of the hill was magnificent. The field across from the house was a great place to play frisbee and football. The pond had frogs, snakes, fish, and large birds. The house has everything you need for cooking and baking. Our hosts thought of everything, including snacks. The entire property is impeccably decorated and immaculately clean. We really enjoyed our get away from busy DC area lives. It was a thirty-minute drive to any store or activity, but hiking, fishing, canoeing/kayaking is within reach if you don’t mind a little bit of driving time. This was a perfect getaway for our family to reconnect after the long COVID isolation.

Beautiful location!
This trip was much needed. Being out in the country setting, in this beautiful farm house was just what we needed. Susan was great at communicating with us and let us know of a cute local shop. The house was very clean and well kept. The front porch overlooking the pond was our go to spot. The kitchen was well stocked. Everything we needed was available to us. We highly recommend this location and plan to go back.

Wonderful relaxing weekend
Our family of 6 adults thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful country farmhouse. It was impeccably well maintained, clean and thoughtfully decorated. Beautiful antiques mixed with modern amenities. The home was the best stocked facility we have rented. Susan had stated that we only needed to bring ourselves, personal items and clothing. We did all of our cooking as with Covid we did not want to venture out, and the kitchen was very well stocked from appliances to spices and pantry staples and condiments. We spent every morning on the spacious front porch with our coffee and every evening around the conveniently located fire pit. We have all agreed that we would like to meet at this location again in the future. It was mid way for all three families. What a gem! rent with confidence! Susan was wonderful to work with.
