I grew up just outside of Indianapolis and came to Purdue in 1999 to attend college. I never left! I’ve lived in a few different places throughout the county but something was always missing. In October 2021, I came across this property and fell in love with it.
The opportunity to host came about after we built our home. We moved out of the barn and into our home in February 2023. It was then we renovated and updated a few things in the barn to make it more functional for family and friends. We enjoy sharing our property and the serene atmosphere with others who just want a nice, relaxing getaway.
My fiancée and I have 3 girls between the 2 of us so giving them a simpler life was important for us. We want to instill the love of nature and hard work to reach their dreams. The oldest enjoys sharing her knowledge of horses and will bring her Quarter horse out for an up close meet & greet.
Our day jobs differ from our home life. I am a special education teacher at a local elementary school and my fiancee runs a lawn care business out of the garage in the barn. When we are home, you will find us working our horses, tending to the chickens and ducks as well as continuing to turn the property into our dream home.
