I can not say enough about this beautiful historical property. We stayed in The Farmhouse in The Ruebling House. The owner has properly executed the farmhouse theme. The property features a few rentals in this home. Each rental is separate from each other and offers plenty of privacy from the other guests in the house. The house was so clean upon arrival, we felt right at home. They have wonderful linens on the beds as well as plenty of towels for our stay. Our family enjoyed sitting out on the porch and taking in the scenery around the property. It is also in a very convenient location, close to wineries and distilleries. Right across the street from Circle 6 Bar which is nice when you want to crowl back to the house instead of driving. We will 1000% be back to this exquisite property! The only "gripes" i have is that there is zero shelves in the shower and it is hard to open the glass shower door. The blinds in the bedrooms and living room were a little difficult to operate as well... but that may have been operator error.
