Beautiful Setting
This is the most well stocked VRBO in which we have stayed. Eggs from then farm chickens was such an added touch. The setting is beautiful. My daughter’s graduation pictures ended up looking like we picked a professional photographer. Note, the shower is upstairs only and the steps are steep. There is a deep bathtub downstairs, but for my older family this presented a challenge.

Always just what you need.
This was our third time at Hard Aground. Always an amazing experience. We had my parents join us for a few days. Plenty of room for everyone to be more than comfortable. Of course they didn’t want to leave. Who does? I would recommend this experience to all!! Kihm and Hope are always accommodating and quick to answer any questions.

Family weekend getaway
My husband, myself, our daughter, son in law, and our 5 year old grandson had a wonderful weekend at the Hard Aground Farm. Our grandson loved feeding the animals, and exploring around the farm. It's a great place for all ages. Quiet atmosphere, in a beautiful country setting. The farm house is equipped with everything you need. The owners were very kind and welcoming.

Wonderfully peaceful and enjoyable family getaway !!!
This farm has something special about it that warms the heart and allows for intimate social gathering. The farm owners, Kihm and Hope, were terrific hosts. They are both very kind and interesting people who are readily available but provide space for guests to fully enjoy their endearing farm. The were very inviting and allowed interaction with the farm animals for our young ones to enjoy !! Being secluded yet close to regional activities made this vacation so special. Very clean accomodations and fine accoutrements. I highly recommend this property for anyone and hope to revisit in the near future !!
