*****This is an owner occupied house, FYI.***** "Come for the cheap lodging, stay for the adventure..." Many of my guests might say 😂 This property is best suited for guests who enjoy rural living, nature, and the relaxed pace of the countryside rather than a hotel-style experience. Large country home on 30 acres just off Hwy 52 about 10 miles north of Rochester. I am a nurse at Mayo Clinic and work 12 hr night shifts. I am very mellow, easy going and easy to get along with. This listing has a queen size bed, full size bed, and daybed About the Hobby Farm... This is a real hobby farm, not a petting zoo. Animals come and go depending on the season, fencing, and farm projects. Some stays may include horses or cattle in the pasture, while other times the property may only have the resident dogs, cats, and local wildlife. Rural life changes with the seasons, and that’s part of the charm of staying here. Timeliness of things I've done with the place: 2013-2015 : installed wood floors on main/2nd floor rooms, outdoor patio/firepit Fenced off property for pasture 🐮🐎 2017 New AC/Furnace 2018 Installed freestanding solar panels on South side of house Bought an old truck with a plow for plowing 2019: New woodstove in main floor living room 2020: finished off basement for 2 additional bedrooms, full bath, kitchen area, living room with fireplace! 2021: Updating upstairs bedrooms and bathroom and areas of the main level Ongoing: Still planning on building an edition off dining room/living room. I have two cat(inside) and two dogs (outside). House has central air, wood burning fireplace, washer/dryer, large porch in the front and a deck in the back of the house. On the main level is the living room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom and my bedroom. Basement has a living room with gas fireplace, full bathroom, kitchen, 2 guest bedrooms, and utility/laundry room My two dogs Daisy (14yr old Mountain Cur) and Kodiak (15year old lab/pix mix) were hunting dogs in their previous owners. They are the friendliest dogs you will ever meet although they might appear somewhat intimidating when you see them running towards you to welcome as you drive in. I live in the woods and the dogs like to hunt so you may see the occasional dead animal the dogs catch laying around outside. Many times they will bring there catches near the house to show off there hunting treasures. The dogs are outside most of the time, but they can come in the house if they are supervised (if left alone the dogs will chew things up and eat things in the kitchen). They are great lap dogs if you want them on the couch with you watching TV. Max and Smokey strictly indoor indoor cats. Even if you aren't a cat person you will love my cats. If you shut the door to your bedroom make sure you don't lock the cats in your room. The only litter boxes are in the basement and in my bedroom closet I also have two horses Lucky and Luna that hang out in my pasture. I also rent out my pasture to a farmer so you will also see some cows around On the main level is the living room, dining room, kitchen, my bathroom and my bedroom. The basement is a separate apartment listed on here
