Head to this special farm to enjoy an overnight filled with…adorable animals!
Welcome to The Woods House at Ten Apple Farm located in lovely Gray.
While we love the idea of a beautiful private home in the woods for a vacation it might be its location on working farm with goats that we love most! But more on that in a moment.
The home itself offers all the comforts you want, including this bright and airy living room that's great for game nights, reading books or watching TV. It even has a futon that opens to a double bed to sleep 2 more people.
And speaking of books, you'll love the library. It features the collection of English Professor W. Stephen Hathaway, father of owner Margaret, and contains tons of books that bookworms will love.
As a working farm, you can expect lots of unique touches you can't find anywhere else. In fact, guests are treated to farm fresh goat cheese and milk, and farm fresh eggs from their chickens.
The farm milks their goats twice a day offering an opportunity for guests to learn a little more about farm life. And you're welcome to try your hand at milking a goat!
A stay at The Woods House at Ten Apple Farm is truly unique. It's great for families and friends looking to relax and spend some quality time together, as well as those looking for a chance to learn more about farm living.
The Woods House at Ten Apple Farm is about $150 per night and can be booked on Airbnb. While there isn’t much availability through the rest of this year, keep an eye out to see when they offer something. You can learn more about Ten Apple Farm and the many activities they offer (including zooming with goats!) on their website.
