Little History The Rested Rooster is the entire downstairs suite of the Historic home that is over 100 years old. The entire upstairs loft is the Happy Hen. While we did a complete renovation in the spring of 2016 modernized what we could while still keeping the original charm. The floors are the original and with that come creeks here and there, we think of it as a reminder of the age. Historic homes back then had minimal ways to sound proof between floors and ceilings due largely to the design. You will find that noise travels and will hear the upstairs guests entering and exiting and such. Most of our guests are respectful and understanding to the nature of the house. If you are looking to not hear the guests upstairs this is not the rental for you. To aid with light sleepers we do offer earplugs for light sleepers and a sound machine. The Historic home sits one block back from a main intersection for orchard trucks and traffic going either to HWY 81 or HWY 15 with that means there will be road noise at times. The location also makes it extremely convenient to get around. The Farmhouse itself is located very close to the intersecting road as old farmhouses were built before the roads. There is a fence running along side of the road. We do except pets for a $75 flat pet fee. No pets other then a dog, each additional is $25. With that comes our Top Dog Package. Obviously while you're enjoying your vacation rental your pup should not have to Ruff it!

As with all historic homes it sits very close to the road as the roads were built after the home. That means traffic noise! During the apple harvesting time there will be trucks.
