You’ll have no problem stowing your boat or kayaks on the property as there’s ample room for a trailer.

We had an amazing time at this beautiful preserved 1860 farmhouse. It was like a step back in time. The front porch is awesome to have your morning coffee and watch the wildlife. The fireplace at night was so nice after a day of exploring the area. This house has everything you would need for a memorable vacation.
5.0
The house gives such a glimpse of life in rural MA - the landscape, the isolation, the beauty. It is super clean and so much more comfortable probably than it was in the 1800's. But the comfortable glimpse of times past was a terrific experience for us all! And such a variety of outdoor and culturally enriching things to do nearby - even in mud season!
