Fun country Oasis
What a cute little place for our 2nd Annual Girls New Year's Eve outing. This place had everything we needed. The water went out while here and the owner came over to see if we needed any. Loved all the vintage items. My daughter loved the 1988 JcPenny catalog. JcPencatacacatalog

An amazing place to stay!
I cannot say enough good about this property. It was clean. It was peaceful. Had everything you needed and more for kitchen items, towels, blankets, bedding. The bed was comfortable. The host was very welcoming and helpful. We tried to book again as soon as we left, but it was already booked out. This place was an amazing find. We will be coming back

Perfect for the mobility impaired
I traveled to the area for a family reunion but struggled to find accommodations that met my physical needs. I have one leg that is semi paralyzed. When I found the Little Country House, I struck gold. The house has close parking, a zero step entry, and a low entry shower with seat. The house, bathroom, and doorways are large enough to accommodate a wheelchair. It even has pocket doors, you don’t have to avoid the swing. Everything about this place was ideal for me. Thanks, Deb!

Peaceful getaway
I spent a peaceful and relaxing weekend at the Little Country House. Deb and her husband were wonderful hosts! It was a beautiful little home - new appliances, clean and modern decor with a country feel, fully stocked with everything you’d need in the kitchen and bathroom, and a comfortable and cozy bed. Outdoors there are comfortable rocking chairs and a nice fire pit area with lights. I came here for a weekend alone, but it could definitely host a family as well. I would highly recommend!

I wish I/we could have stayed longer ! There was an outdoor fire pit that would have been nice to utilize. The house was immaculate and well stocked with bedding and sheets and we loved the washer dryer! That was very handy to have. The open concept was comfortable and easy to see if we had picked up everything we needed to put back in the car. Deb was a gracious and friendly host, eager to share the history of the farm. Terrific place! Highly recommended!

This house was amazing...very quiet and clean! There are a lot of fun things to do around the area! The town has a great public pool and even an old time drive in theatre.

Sitting on the porch, coffee cup in hand, listening to the birds sing and the corn grow. It was a wonderful setting for reconnecting with family. Thanks to the owners for sharing a bit of country life with city folk. My batteries are recharged.

We had a lovely visit to a great little cabin! Everything is available with a well-stocked kitchen (even coffee grounds), extra bedding, etc. Deb even provided an iron and ironing board when we needed it. Very clean and well-organized. We had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend it.

Cute Farm Cottage
We enjoyed this cute and cozy cottage just 10 minutes north of Newton. It was a neat and welcoming place. The heated flooring was very appealing during our winter stay. There were plenty of extra blankets for us to use. The floor plan was open and spacious. The host was extremely sweet and accommodating. Parking was somewhat inconvenient for our very large vehicle but parking anywhere is challenging with it. Most VRBO we’ve stayed at use keypads for entry, but here, we were greeted and introduced to the unit which was nice. It was a very peaceful and pleasant experience for our family. Highly recommend!
