You'll be as comfortable here as you are at home! The renovated skylights let in plenty of warming sunshine.
The view from the barn's wraparound porch is one that you will certainly treasure.
AirBnB
Grill up some dinner and breathe in that fresh country air. There's nothing like this in the big cities!
The Silo is located on a real working farm, too, so you'll have the chance to meet horses and explore the grounds.
AirBnB
Pick some apples to share with the ponies - but watch your fingers! While it's never a good idea to feed horses you don't know, the owners specifically say you're welcome to share apples right from the trees.
Pick a handful of raspberries as you walk right up. They're safe to eat and as sweet as can be.
