There will be a private pen and a fenced in communal run for your dog/s to stay. Sorry no indoor pets.

This will also be a Reservation only B&B ( at least 8 hours notice) and you must make your choice from the menu when reservations are made. This is how I will be sure to serve everything when it is at its perfection. Nothing under a warmer!



Well folks that was the easy planning. Finding the best property, location, permits, licenses etcetera will be completed over the next few years. Again this will all depend on the response I get here and other places.


If you notice I did not put a price on this; that will be a big part of your feedback. What would it be worth to you to be spoiled rotten for 12 hours at a B&B like this?


One more thing that you should know; I already have a local produce farm, various local orchards and a USDA butcher who only buys from area farmers. I only shop local for all of my meats and produce now and this will not change. Only the menu would.

Okay ---now how about some feedback folks?

 

REALLY...... filthy pigs, stolen linens and damaged property?



...once you sit a driver in your hot tub you'll only need about a quart of hot water to bring the water level up to the top.

If this is the best you can do to be civilized than I'll ask you to remove your post!

As far as anyone having to worry about theft from me or anyone else in my family. We have worked for every penny we have and everything we own!

 

No Dave I'm not having a stressful day. I find insults to be less than humorous.
As far as all of us being business owners, I would hope that as business owners folks would act like one, once in awhile, at least when talking business. To me business is not a place for jokes especially tasteless / classless one! As far as peering eyes go, that will not be an issue. Right now I live on a 300 acre farm and nobody comes on this property without me knowing it. I have cameras everywhere and it probably doesn’t hurt that I have 5 very big dogs that run free on my property. If I decide to make a move to start something like a B&B for truckers I will not be downsizing and no one will see any trucks from the road. I have lived in high crime areas but where I am at now, I haven’t locked my doors in years. My gates yes but not my doors.
