Item Description

Use your gift certificate for lodging at the B&B or shop at the Farm Store for farm-raised meat, poultry, dairy, produce, and more.

Bob & Lee Light are happy to welcome you to their home and share the farm lifestyle with guests. The B & B features two lovely double rooms with queen size beds, private bathrooms, one has a fireplace, the other a sauna. The charming family suite has two rooms, fireplace, and private bathroom. Bring your slippers! The common room has a fireplace, cozy furnishings, an auxiliary eating area with a microwave and small refrigerator for anyone wanting to prepare a light meal or snack. They have lots of puzzles, books, and games and a radio, but sorry, no TV -but they do have WI-FI internet.

Breakfast is served family-style in the large country kitchen or out on the back deck in good weather. They proudly serve as much of their own farm raised food as possible.

The B & B is centrally located and just a short drive to many excellent restaurants, attractions, shops, and recreational trails for hiking and winter sports. Excellent skiing and snowboarding are within 45 minutes away.

On site activities include relaxing & enjoying the bucolic setting and unwinding in the openness of the fields and sky. Porch sitting is a necessary and highly respected Hollister Hill Farm activity!

The barn is open during the day for guests to visit the animals. Among the animals are Jersey cows for milking, chickens, pigs, ducks, and beefalo. You can just watch or you can help at chore time. Chores may include cleaning and bedding the pens as well as feeding and watering the animals. In early spring, you can help tap the trees and learn about the maple sugaring process. Right out the front door there are many miles of beautiful back roads and well maintained trails for outdoor activities. There is also a pond on site for fishing, tractor rides and lots of fun to be found on the farm. In winter, cross-country ski or snowshoe on the 200 acre property, go sledding, or head out on the VAST snowmobile trail which cuts through the property.

The farm store features their own naturally/organically raised Beefalo beef, pork, chickens, turkeys, eggs and maple syrup plus fresh and delicious raw Jersey milk. All 100% anti-biotic and hormone-free products and produced right at the farm.
