Thank you for sharing this amazing farmhouse and its rich history!We had the most relaxing and peaceful vacation. If you're looking for a quiet farmhouse thatâs still conveniently close to town, this is the perfect spot. Mornings on the porch with coffee and evenings with your favorite beverageâwatching the groundhogs, cows, or even the neighbor calling his goatsâare pure bliss. You wonât be disappointed. We will definitely be staying here again!
We loved Walter and Mae's Farmhouse. Pat was very communicative, check-in and check-out were super easy. The home was beautifully decorated, and while we didn't have a chance to use the kitchen, it was very well stocked. The location was convenient to Bristol, Johnson City and Kingsport, and very relaxing. I really enjoyed sitting on the front porching watching the cows. Next time I travel to that area, I will definitely stay again. Thank you Pat for sharing your small piece of paradise with us.
We loved staying at Walter and Mae's farmhouse! It was clean and well stocked with bedding, towels, and kitchen tools. The setting was so lovely and picturesque! We walked the loop several mornings, and really enjoyed the quiet charming area.
This stay was so refreshing. Walter & Maeâs Farmhouse is so picturesque, well furnished, so quaint and clean, we really enjoyed our stay so much! Such nice and considerate Hosts! The neighbors so open and genuine, the cows in the pastures, the trails, too many nice things to list. We will definitely return!
The home was beautiful and clean. It rained most of our stay but there were games and puzzles to keep us occupied. To be honest we spent most of our time watching the cows and wild animals and taking in the breath taking mountain scenery. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed for traditional meals. We also tried one of the local restaurants, recommended in the owners notes. Dino's was a quaint little Italian restaurant with delicious food and fantastic service. There was hiking trails, river rafting and lake access very close in driving distance, we were not able to go because of the rain but we would have given the chance. I would definitely stay here again!
We enjoyed our stay at the farmhouse over Thanksgiving. It was a few miles from my familyâs house and easy to get to. They had all we needed and it was very clean. We especially enjoyed watching all the cows in the morning from the porch and right outside the kitchen window. Beautiful mountain views too. Good WiFi connection. Just make sure you screenshot the access code before getting there because there is no service until connected.
I enjoyed the summer at this very nice country cottage. The home is very clean and comfortable and had all the amenities needed for my stay. The area is safe and quiet. The farms on either side had cattle that I enjoyed watching and getting to know their habits. I made friends with some of the cows by feeding them carrots and apples every day.
The neighbors were awesome and made feel at home, I will miss them. I highly recommend âWalter & Maeâs Farmhouseâ.
