The Stovall House

As we pulled up to the Stovall House, I felt like we were stepping into another place and time. The beauty and charm of the old farmhouse exuded warmth and character. While I'd like to say it felt a bit like "Little House on The Prairie", it is actually a BIG house on rolling green hills with massive old trees and a beautiful view of the foothills. Every morning, Ms. Erin crafted a fantastic breakfast complete with fresh meat and eggs from the farm. My son has severe food allergies, and she was careful to curate options just for him because she takes allergies seriously. We felt very cared for by this! We enjoyed our view of the hills and the pasture as we'd watch the sun burn off the rolling fog during our delicious breakfast on the massive wraparound porch. Each evening, a fire was prepared in the fire pit, surrounded by comfortable Adirondack chairs. Personalized packages of the makings for s'mores were waiting for us each night to enjoy by the fire. The stars and the view were magnificent. Such a reflection of God's divine glory! One of the highlights for me was the sleeping porch where my kids stayed. It was so cozy and nostalgic. We played games on the rug in the lamplight before bed, and in the morning, the sun poured in through windows on all three sides. Our entire stay felt magical to me. As a mom, it was wonderful to feel like food and table were prepared for me, and I didn't have to do a thing! The beds were comfortable. Everything was completely clean. We felt so relaxed and refreshed there. I hope we can make it back to Helen one day. If we do, I know right where we will stay!
