Whether wanting a romantic getaway or a family retreat, you are sure to get the rest and relaxation you are looking for on Shady Spring Farm. A completely private 3 bedroom home, The Tenant House is available on a nightly, weekly, or monthly basis.
After four years of restoration, The Tenant House at Shady Spring Farm has recently been made available for guests to enjoy. Step back in time in this charming 1880s home located on Shady Spring Farm, a family-operated Black Angus cattle farm. Originally built in the 1880s for the resident tenant farmer and his family, this home has been lovingly restored to its 1930s splendor. Enjoy cooking breakfast in the farmhouse kitchen, home to an original 1935 monitor top refrigerator and a 1911 cast iron and chrome electric range on cabriole legs. The oak-cabinet telephone with hand-held receiver and brass bells is available for local and long distance calls.
Relax, read a book, or visit with friends while sitting in oak rocking chairs on the broad front porch. The enclosed back porch overlooks a meadow and pasture area and has seating for two - a great place to read in the morning or sip a cup of tea while taking in the beautiful scenery of the Great Cove valley.
Each of the three bedrooms has a double bed and is decorated with antiques. Crisp line-dried linens will be provided when weather permits, and high-loft goose-down comforters will be available on chilly winter nights. The bathroom with a mahogany sink base and French waterspout faucet has a full size bathtub and shower.
We invite you to stroll the grounds, explore the 130 acre farm, and enjoy the fresh country air. Walk our private lane or make use of the two picnic areas on the farm. Ask to feed the dozens of golden trout that call our limestone springhouse and spring waters home. A romantic retreat or great vacation get-away, The Tenant House at Shady Spring Farm awaits you and your family. Come and enjoy.
