Rustic Farmette Studio with Hot Tub & Pool

Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway on 20 acres in CT’s Quiet Corner. Just an hour away from Boston, Providence Mo, and Hartford, enjoy this private in-law studio with beautiful forest views. Relax in the hot tub or pool (unheated), take a walk along the trails, or make a fire by the barn. Check out the nearby herb stand, buy farm fresh eggs, enjoy the local vineyards, or explore antiques in Putnam. We're also 10 min from MA' second largest boat-friendly body of water, Webster Lake!

Folks from all backgrounds and identities are welcome at The Farmette.

Ideal for couples, solo travelers, a small family, or friends. Please include all individuals (& pets) in your booking.

This is an 1800s saltbox replica with large windows overlooking pine, oak, and red maple trees, as well as a wall that shows off the foundation stones. The in-law studio has a private entrance on the ground floor with a small private deck, full double-sink bathroom with a unique spa-like shower, a coffee maker, a water bubbler, a microwave/air fryer, and refrigerator. There is one queen bed with a very comfortable bamboo mattress and down duvet. The kitchenette area has a table that can double as a place to work remotely (with great wifi). There is a large closet, as well as a cozy couch where you can watch Netflix and live TV, or look out at the beautiful scenery. You also have private access to a grill. The (unheated) pool and hot tub are surrounded by trees and are accessible 24 hours (pool is open April-October). The three-floor barn is home to nine hens and a rooster, our first animal rescues through our small non-profit, The Farmette Sanctuary. We eventually plan to adopt goats, sheep, and alpaca as well!

This is a great place to rest and rejuvenate during your stay while never leaving the property (Doordash delivers!), or take advantage of the many things to do nearby - go on a hike at the Thompson dam or a local state park, visit Old Sturbridge Village (the largest living museum in the Northeast), or listen to live music at a brewery or pub.

My wife, dogs (Bentley and Sparkle), and I live on the other floors of the house and love welcoming folks to our space. We are happy to give you a tour and share about the property, or give you space to have a private getaway.

You will have private access to the studio. The unheated pool, hot tub, garden, barn, and trail are shared use.

Hosts live on the main/second floor and will be around and available to answer questions or help as needed.

Let Sandra know if you’re interested in a private hourlong yoga practice. $25 for one person, $30 for two. Accessible to all levels of yoga practitioners, including if it’s your first time.

There is no lifeguard on duty. The pool area is gated off - please exercise caution and safety and swim/enjoy the hot tub at your own risk. Note that the wood planks around the pool are wobbly, please walk carefully and use caution as you enter/exit the pool. Additionally, please use extreme caution if using the outdoor rock steps to get to the studio entrance (please note that there is only one step if you enter by the garage side).

Please be sure to include in your booking if you will bring a child or a pet with you on your visit. We set up the space slightly differently if we are expecting children or dogs, and it’s important for us to know who is staying in our home. Please note there is a $50 pet fee, we have a Pack and Play available for young children, and the couch can be set up as a pull-out bed.

Please note there is no stovetop in the space - no stovetop cooking is allowed as there is no exhaust fan in the kitchenette. You have private access to an outdoor grill, and a cast iron skillet and saucepan are provided for your use on the grill as well as oil, salt, pepper, and basic cooking utensils. Be sure to use the oven mit when holding the handles as they get very HOT on the grill. Dirty dishes can be placed in the basket and left outside if you would like us to wash them overnight (please inform us if you would like this service. You can also wash them using the dish soap provided in the bathroom).

The Farmette is in a Rural Residential Agricultural District. That means there's a local mix of residences and farms (livestock and agriculture). While you get a rural feel, we're only a few minute drive away from grocery stores, shops, etc.

Guests will need a car as there is no local public transportation. The farmette is only 3 minutes from Exit 50 off of interstate 395, so you can quickly get to Thompson center, Putnam, or Webster (grocery stores, Target, restaurants, etc within 10-15 min). There is plenty of parking space available on the farmette, including for trailers.
