Moose Lodge At Clatter Ridge Farm
About this house rental
Nestled in Connecticut, this attractive house for $616 per night is a great choice for your next trip. A very small farm nestled in the middle of everywhere. Private and peaceful, but located minutes from award winning dining, music, arts, theater and poetry. Only 2 hours from New York and Boston, Farmington has the best of everything. We live in a separate house on the property and are always close by to answer any questions. We have pigs in the forest and sheep in the pasture, they are visible (but it's not a petting zoo).

The very definition of peaceful, this working farm is nothing short of magical. You are welcomed to a superbly-appointed home — not a clinical hotel. Or family had a great time visiting with the sheep, piggies and the lovely owners. We’re hope to be back soon!

Bobbie is an incredible host and Moose Lodge is just perfect for a family. We stayed for two weeks and appreciated all her wonderful communication, support during our stay, and thoughtful details. Would stay again at her farm in a heartbeat.

We loved our stay here for graduation weekend! The hosts were very sweet and responsive, even letting our young daughter pet their animals, and were very responsive and friendly. The house was clean and spacious, and the grounds pretty and serene. Plus we got fresh eggs, milk and English muffins in the fridge at arrival. Highly recommended!

We chose this property for several reasons, but the primary reason was that it had a 5 star rating. We agree! The property was as described, the host was friendly and communicative, the house had more amenities than expected, and we were very comfortable. Thank you so much for everything!

Had a great stay and would definitely love to be back. Highlights include the big kitchen, multiple living room spaces, and of course...the baby sheep and the pig! :)

This home was so peaceful and comfortable we instantly felt like we were home. We loved the spacious eat-in kitchen and family room and our grandchildren couldn’t get enough of the sheep, sow and goats.

This property was a hit! A charming farmhouse set on a peaceful, working farm with animals, with all amenities needed for a comfortable stay, in a location close to shops, restaurants, activities, etc.--what more could you ask for? I'm sorry I didn't have the chance to meet the owners, but my nephew and his family did, and had a wonderful conversation about the property and its history. We have family nearby this location, so we are looking forward to returning when we have the next family event.

My family and I stayed here last weekend as a place to gather to attend my grandmother’s funeral. Although the reason for the gathering was a somber one, it was really wonderful to have such a cozy, large space for our family to spend time together. It was nice to be able to have separate rooms and bathrooms, but also have the kitchen, dining room, and living room to enjoy meals together and play board games in the evenings. It proved such a wonderful place to connect. The property itself was beautiful and it was really fun to be able to see the sheep, pig and chickens! The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed – and the addition of farm fresh eggs and other things in the fridge was a treat. We also loved having a fire going in the evenings – it really helped create a cozy, comfortable ambiance! We have already talked about wanting to come back at some point for another family reunion, and would recommend to others!

Perfect for a family
My family used this rental while staying in Connecticut for my brother’s wedding in Hartford. We travelled a long distance and wanted something with enough space for my 3 young children to run around during our stay.
The moose lodge was perfect. It’s a beautiful farm property located centrally to everything we needed. The animals were charming and my children absolutely loved them. They also loved helping Bobbie and Anne take care of them in the morning.
The house was spacious and charming equipped with everything a young family needs (highchair, pack n play, booster seat, kiddie utensils) there is also a “playroom” dedicated to kids toys, games and wonder.
The house was clean and well stocked with linens, kitchenware, coffee and even FARM FRESH EGGS.
We loved our stay here and if needed to be in Hartford again, would not hesitate to return to this property.

We had such a peaceful retreat at Moose Lodge. Bobbie and Anne were easy to reach before we checked in, and we got to meet them during a morning winter hike up the ridge. There, they gave us an great overview of the history of the area. Great people.
We are from Laguna Beach California, and were visiting family. and we got the full New England experience. The house is awesome - many rooms and cool nooks to relax. The Kitchen has everything you would need to cook and entertain. We made a fire every night, and chilled out in the "playroom". playing cards and games. They even left us a bottle of wine to kick things off. Our kids (though a bit older) loved the animals. Our son had a broken leg, and loved just sitting with the Chickens and Sheep. A delightful weekend in the country!
We will be back!

Lovely and Comfortable Property with Excellent Hosts
Pastures surrounded by woodsy ridges in a peaceful and private setting, yet minutes from town and conveniences. Haven for nature lovers; grazing sheep, lovely pigs and egg-producing chickens. Detailed-to-perfection house with fireplace, screen porch, comfy furniture, nooks & crannies to curl up with a book yet plenty of room. The consummate hosts, available at your request but not hovering, delightful conversationalists with recommendations depending on your interests. In short, it felt like visiting a favorite relative's home.

Wonderful!
We had a lovely stay! Bobby and Anne were incredible hosts. They left everything we could need in the kitchen, including fresh eggs. They were so kind and caring with our kids and let them feed the animals with them every morning. The house is so homey and clean. We couldn’t recommend more! We were so grateful to stay and hope to return!

Idyllic place, both house and grounds
We’ve rented dozens of houses over the years: this was our favorite! Loved the two lounges, the breakfast and dining rooms, the three bathrooms. The hosts are warm, helpful and hospitable. We loved Gertrude the pig, her offspring and the sheep and chickens. It provides a great base for hiking, adventure sports and cultural attractions. Good restaurants, too!

Communication with owners was excellent. The house is very roomy and comfortable. We also slept well. My favorite room is the "Playroom". Lots of cozy spots to sit in, and a cabinet full of family games for our use. We loved seeing the sheep and pigs everyday, as well as the: chipmunks, bunnies, and hummingbirds that frequent the property. We had three kids with us 12, 10, and 10. They were able to feed the animals hay, and visit with a chicken. There was a lot of rain, but otherwise we would have been able to help with eggs and such. Kitchen was well stocked. We will definitely be returning.

Hosts are fantastic. Lodge is peaceful and private but not far from stores and activities. We will not hesitate to stay here again.

Great quiet place to stay
The home was clean and well maintained. Some nice amenities upon arrival which were very tasty (farm fresh eggs among them!) . Short drive to restaurants and grocery stores. Beds comfortable. The owners were responsive and a pleasure to meet. My granddaughter enjoyed the sheep/rams, chickens and the cutest piglets- so did the adults. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there!

It's hard to say all I'd like to withdraw limited characters, but I will return for certian. The house was exactly as described and in a gorgeous country setting, nestled in suburbia. The place was loaded with everything one could want/need and more! Amazingly friendly and communicative owners who really take pride in thier operation - not to mention the hilarious (sheep voices) and wonderful animals at the farm - mama pig had piglets on day 1! Thank you again for letting us stay at the farm - it was truly our privilege!

Beautiful relaxing property
This house was amazing and just what we needed! Bobbie was a great host and my kids loved the kids room and toys and of course being able to see the farm animals right outside the house. I hope we can come back again at some point!

Wonderful stay
We have kids around 3-4. The owners brought a baby lamb to the house each morning to play with the kids. The house is fully stocked with toys, linens, and pantry items. Moose Lodge was a wonderful experience for the entire family.

I can’t express how AMAZING our weekend at Moose Lodge was. We had a group of two families with 3 kids under 3 and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The property would have been fantastic with just a group of adults, but I couldn’t believe how conducive it was for families with kids. Each family had ample space and privacy, the kids had a ton of safe space to run around, toys to play with, and animals to meet - it truly couldn’t have been more perfect. There were so many welcoming touches when we checked in and our hosts were not only friendly, responsive, and excessively accommodating (they even messaged the night before we left to offer a later check-out which is hugely helpful when traveling with toddlers), but they also brought by a baby lamb to visit with us which made for the most memorable trip. The area was so pretty and Farmington is a great town with lots to do, but we could barely peel ourselves away from the magical farm and property. We cannot wait to make this an annual getaway!

More than we'd hoped for!
Our stay at Moose Lodge was amazing. The house is a lovely home in a magnificent, historic area of Connecticut. Spotlessly clean and wonderfully comfortable, we had everything we needed right there for our first trip with our kids and granddaughters since the nightmare of 2020. The grounds were perfect for two small kids to play and run and explore. Bobbie and Anne couldn't have been nicer. We looked forward to seeing them each morning when they fed the animals. They even brought along a tiny lamb for us to meet. Everything about this trip made us happy!
