A small guest cottage on the back corner of a 15 acre farm, with lots of free roaming farm animals. Awake to roosters crowing, collect eggs for breakfast, even milk a goat into your coffee! Our tiny guest cottage is indeed tiny. It is just a single room with a tiny sleeping loft. It sleeps four, at most, but has all the comforts of home. It has basic cooking equipment, such as a charcoal grill, tiny one burner stove, pots, pans, plates and utensils. Please bring your own TOWELS. The composting outhouse and shower are OUTDOORS so be prepared. There's plenty to do in the local area: walk 10 mins to our general store near a waterfall, hike up Walnut Mountain, take our kayaks out in Swan Lake, fish, swim, visit the secret Gorge nearby, or just nap with a goat in the shade. Please be aware that we also host campers on the farm, mainly on the weekends. You may not have the farm entirely to yourselves, but we do enforce our "noise and music have to be finished by 10pm" rule. Also, the cottage has a steady parade of mice visiting its walls and ceilings. We have a live trap set inside the cottage, so please tell us if you catch a mouse, so we can humanly relocate him. Finally,please search YouTube for R-5Ou7OZHcQ to enjoy a great vid of the farm in summer. The entire farm is accessible to guests. Nothing is off limits. Please don't litter on the farm. I let you in the gate, give a quick tour, show you the cottage and then give you your privacy. Guests are welcome to join in the feeding and milking at sun up and sun down. Swan Lake is quiet most of the year, and only bustles when the summer tourists arrive in late June. The main lake is quite large and beautiful, has a dam and waterfall at its south end(URL HIDDEN)miles to our north is Walnut Mountain, with great trails to its 2,400 ft peak. 6 miles to our south is Bethel Woods, site of the 1969 Woodstock Festival. There is a Bus into Liberty, as well as Monticello, and a train into Middletown. I can pick you up at these stations for $1/mile from the farm. Only run one heating appliance (heater, coffee maker, microwave, hairdryer etc) at a time in the cottage, otherwise you'll trip the breaker which has to be reset under the sink. Once you have dropped of your luggage at the cottage, please park outside the farm gates, so that vehicles cannot be damaged by curious animals. If you have allergies, a farm may not be the place for you. No refunds will be given for allergic reactions to the farm. Please don't forget to bring your own TOWELS, ours seem to leave quickly. Firewood is provided for campfires, but please burn only what you must. Please let your fire burn out completely rather than putting water on it. To use the canoe and kayak on the main lake, find the paddles and key to the right of our front porch, then find our "boat trail", 100 feet to the left of our black mailbox. Follow the red blazes down to the lake, and find the kayak and canoe. Paddle south to the general store, or north, under Kelly Bridge, into another part of Swan Lake. Please lock up the boats after use and return the paddles and key to the place you found them.
