About this property

The Farmhouse - 2 ml from Colgate, king bed, family friendly, sleeps 10

Welcome home!

You’ll love staying at this updated 1860s farmhouse with its open floor plan, beautiful hardwood floors, and mix of modern and rustic charm.

Located on a quiet, country road only 2 miles from Colgate and the village of Hamilton, The Farmhouse features plenty of comfy chairs and couches and places to rest your head. We have 1 king, 1 queen, 1 full, and 2 twin trundle beds (4 total twin beds). In addition, we have a futon/couch, a crib/toddler bed, and a queen pull-out couch.

You’ll walk into an expansive sunroom with an egg chair (Google it!), a couple of chairs, and a high-top table. The sunroom also has yoga mats and dumbells for you to use.

FIRST FLOOR
From the sunroom, you’ll enter the light-filled farmhouse featuring a fully stocked kitchen, laundry room, and full bath with shower. Off the kitchen is a breakfast area with expandable high top table and a living room with two sitting areas and a large, Smart TV. Also on the first floor is a formal dining room as well as a family room with gas stove, desk, Smart TV and access to the covered front porch with chairs. Have a seat and watch the chipmunks play and the neighbor’s chickens peck our newly planted grass seed! And make sure to wake up early enough to catch the gorgeous sunrise...

The washer and dryer are easily accessible and the kitchen is stocked with spices, condiments, coffee, tea, pots, pans, and appliances that you’d have at home. We stay here as well so we know what the house needs to make you feel at home.


SECOND FLOOR
The second floor features four bedrooms and a baby room.

Bedroom 1 includes a comfortable king bed, Smart TV, dresser, sitting area, and wardrobe.

Bedroom 2 is separated from the master bedroom by a beautiful barn door and includes a queen bed and dresser.

Bedroom 3 connects to Bedroom 2 and has a day bed/trundle bed that can be pulled out to sleep 2 or the room can be used as a small living room.

Bedroom 4 has both a full bed and a twin trundle bed. It can sleep 4 if the trundle is pulled out.

The sitting room off the master bedroom includes a futon that can be made into a bed as well as a crib, a child’s table and chairs, and toys, books, and puzzles.

The upstairs bathroom includes a tub, shower, low-flush toilet, and double sink with plenty of amenities in case you forgot (toothbrushes, Q-tips, razors, band aids, etc.)

NEARBY
Just a short walk on the property are the headwaters of the Chenango River. Grab one of our fishing poles on your way and see what you can catch in the trout-stocked waters. Or bring a book or yoga mat (we have plenty of both!) and enjoy the serenity of the running water.

You also have access to a large fire pit area, 5-burner grill, 2 picnic tables, bikes (toddler, kids, and adults) and toys for kids.

Enjoy your stay!
There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. The bathroom has a shower and a hair dryer. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a fitness center or take in the view from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

The Farmhouse was GREAT. The owner was responsive to any questions (i.e., some good dinner recommendations), and the location was quiet, close to town, and very pretty. The beds were comfortable, the bedrooms spacious, the house was very clean, tons of extra towels, and a well-stocked kitchen with coffee/creamer and all the condiments one could desire...

Spacious and convenient to Colgate
My friends and I stayed at the house to attend our college reunion. The house is spacious and clean, located far enough outside Hamilton that is it quiet, close enough that it is convenient. The owner is a pleasure, concerned and attentive to our experience. One thing to note is that one of the bedrooms is only accessible by walking through another bedroom. It's a great place for young kids, but may not work for adults. That being said, the house is large enough to accommodate a crowd.

Farm house weekend
The farmhouse was a perfect weekend home for our group of 8. We each had a room and plenty of space to spread out. The kitchen was well appointed. The views in the morning and stars at night were lovely.

Family Farmhouse - charming comfy
This picturesque farmhouse is perfect for a large family. Plenty of room. Plenty of amenities. Loved the outdoor areas. That was cherry on top! Lol and laundry room, thank you! Hostess was super quick to answer me with any of my questions. We came up from Texas as a family for my daughter’s graduation from Cazenovia and had few quirky things to iron out ahead of time…and Hostess was great with helping us. Our stay was perfect!

Lovely stay at a lovely home!
Excellent communication from the host - we had an awful stay at another home and luckily Wendy was able to host us for a couple days last minute and was so kind. Everything was clean and all instructions were communicated very well. Only thing was the Keurig machine was broken but we were able to get the drip one working. We will definitely stay here again if we’re ever in the area!

Very impressive
This home was a perfect fit for our needs. It was clean and beautifully furnished with EVERYTHING anyone might need! Minutes to town yet quiet and serene with even a rambling little stream to sit by and contemplate life! We don't want to say too many wonderful things about this gem at the risk of it not being available for when we want to go back!

Lovely home and lovely owners!
This property is absolutely adorable and it is obvious that much care and thought went into preparing this home to be opened to visitors of all kinds! The rooms are spacious and well-decorated. Eco-friendly products are used throughout the house, which is very nice and speaks volumes about the consideration that the owners have for not only their guests, but the entire planet. I only wish we spent more time at the actual house because it was so lovely, but we were in town for a reunion which kept us away from the Vrbo most of the trip! In our rushed exit, I forgot a few towels and a swimsuit in the dryer and the owner was very willing to help me get it shipped (of course I won't ask them to pay the shipping though!). So many books and boardgames to choose from, musical delights via vinyl records and a guitar. Lovely decor all around. Honestly, I could keep boasting about all the wonderful things I loved about this property but I'm almost at the character limit!! I want to go back just to stay in this house and the beautiful town it is in! Scenery is gorgeous, neighbors are friendly, local fare delicious. Top notch!

Amazing, Child-friendly Stay in Hamilton
We had an absolutely amazing experience with Wendy and Will. The house was extremely comfortable and amazingly child friendly with toys, books, crib, lounger, and pack and play already in the house. Our daughter loved the little table in the kid's room for coloring. The kitchen was well appointed and stocked with all that we need, and the close yet not quite in the middle of town location was perfect for our needs. We will absolutely stay there if we are in town again. Thank you!
