I love every season here .. winter brings the beautiful white snow ❄️⛄️❄️

The snow of January 2026 was not as heavy as the forecast predicted .. we got 6" of snow .. no ice and no sleet. The snow came down in very small, dry flakes with a strong wind .. so very little stuck in the trees. But the temperature stayed in the single digits for days, so the snow stayed too.

It is SO PEACEFUL here .. Come be our guest!
The bookings are coming in .. so don't let your date get booked up!

When you own a house that is over 100 years old it needs updating sometimes. The Farm House's front porch was the recipient this time.

The floor was soft, the front door looked warn, the box on the porch was unpleasant to the eye, the rail around the half wall needed repair and there was rotten wood by the screen door. So we gave it some love.

For the demo .. DJ tore out the old floor. Then he replaced the posts that hold up the floor joists and re-enforced the floor joists with new ones. He tore out the shell around the box, the rails around the half wall and the rotten wood by the screen door. I loaded the old boards on the tractor and hauled them to the burn pile.

Then we replaced the floor & the box with tongue & groove knotty pine. My job was to cut the boards and DJ installed them. We replaced the rails & the area that was rotten with new wood and added new screen where needed. We put a fresh coat of lacquer on the front door, painted the red screen door, painted the new wood & touched up spots that were worn and we put polyurethane on the floor.

It is crazy how many tools are needed for projects! So thankful that DJ knows how to use them!!

The weather was beautiful and we had fun working together putting some love into The Farm House.

I am posting before, during and after pictures .. I hope you enjoy them and will come be our guest sometime!!

The Farm House On Beaver Lake - Shoreline 1,400 ft

When we went to bed on January 9, 2025 ... I thought we might get 1" of snow. Then when I woke up on January 10th we had around 8" and it was stunning!

The snow was so fluffy and light and it hung on every branch so I had to go for a walk with my camera. I started on the south side of the property where our house sits .. and then went to The Farm House and The Trails.

It was SO PEACEFUL and QUITE .. I ended up walking around for over 2 hours on the 10th and then went back out for over 1 hour on the 11th. I took tons of pictures and these are some of my favorite around The Farm House and on The Trails behind it ...

I hope you enjoy the photos and I would love for you to commit on your favorites ..

It is March 2024 and the lake level is so low.

While it is a bit further walk to the water, it is a gentle slope! And it does give us more land to explore ... When the lake is low the grands love going out on the point ... looking for treasures & playing on the old foundations (which are typically underwater).

We take advantage of the low lake level when possible. We have had so many picnics on this point ... it one of my favorite things to do with the grands when the lake is low.

We appreciate all the gifts God has blessed us with and we hope you will come be our guests. It truly is one of the most peaceful places on earth.
