    Description

    I live on a 10 acre hobby farm that has been neglected for the last three or four years and am now wanting to turn this into the park like setting it was once before. There is a beautiful pond to sit and watch the geese and ducks swim on while the trout jump in the background. There is a few acres of forest that trails can be built for a beautiful walk with the dogs and a thermos of coffee. The out buildings are made of logs which gives this place character and an old plow that was pulled by a horse. The tranquility of Tanglewood Farms is a beautiful and relaxing place and with a little bit more help we can make it absolutely amazing!

    Accommodation

    I have a one bedroom with a double bed and dresser and closet. The person/persons will share the rest of the house with me. I’ll buy All the food and if they want to cook their own meals that is fine. I’ll gladly cook for them also. I do expect that you do clean up after yourself though.

    What else ...

    You may do anything you want on your time off. There is transport out of here either by a local taxi service or by bus service a few times a week. There’s a little town about an hour away walking if you’re so inclined. Hitchhiking is safe here in this town.
