5 million stars 🤩

If I could give Ronnie and his space 5 million stars, I would. He is a spectacular host with such an elegant, historic space. The space, while historic and special was also modern and well-appointed. It’s such an incredible location, in walking distance to everything you’d need. The farmhouse featured beautiful, homey touches and just had an aura of absolute relaxation. As you can gather, I can’t recommend it enough. After my last Airbnb experience, I was about ready to never use the platform again - the Cole Farmhouse and Ronnie’s excellent hospitality changed that for me. I hope Airbnb gives him a medal. In short, it would be a privilege to book this place and I can’t wait to return.
