Great Home for Relaxation

To me, the old fashioned feel of the house created a coziness that our family needed. Although all the modern conveniences are available, the seclusion of the property provided the respite from the fast paced modern world we all live in. It provides the framework for a very relaxing stay, no matter what you are looking for.

Family vacation to visit relatives

This was a beautiful property. It was exactly like the pictures showed. We had plenty of room for our entire family. We loved the cinnamon rolls and note from our hosts that were waiting for us when we arrived. The front porch view is stunning. My grandkids loved seeing the cows an donkeys. We would definitely stay here again.

Family Christmas

We had a great stay at the farm house, it brought our family together for a Christmas celebration since moms house is too small now. The kids loved the donkeys and roasting marshmallows in the firepit (roasting sticks in the house). The house was beautiful and nicely updated while maintaining all of its character.

Absolutely beautiful historical home! I enjoyed reading the Open Bible, and how it was written and all the helpful info for learning. Loved sitting in the porch!!! (just wish the stray dogs did not come up on the porch…..perhaps, a gate across both steps onto porch would be helpful) The view in the valley to the mountain range and the sunrise and sunset…..WOW! God’s creation is absolutely beautiful!

Beautiful house that met our needs

It was a wonderful weekend as our son was married at Dry Creek Chapel that Saturday night. We mainly only slept there, but it met our needs as a couple of my son's groomsmen stayed with us Friday night and a couple of family members from out of state stayed on Saturday night. I hope we can come back when we can stay longer and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!

Everything we needed!

The house is gorgeous! My two sisters and I had a relaxing few days just enjoying ourselves! This house had all we needed. We loved being in the country, however we did manage to do plenty of shopping! The house was clean and oh so charming, cupcakes awaited our arrival. Plenty of beds and bathrooms, beautiful vistas, cows, roosters, and horses, oh my! Beautiful, would do it again!

Stunning!

Words can't truly express how beautiful this property and its surroundings are. We honestly didn't want to leave, and indeed we extended our stay. This was the perfect getaway. The owners were wonderful, very responsive and accommodating of our requests to stay longer. The views were stunning and the house itself beautiful. There is a lovely vibe to the home itself and so many beautifully restored areas. We will absolutely be back here.

Family Reunion

This property is amazing! We were welcomed with fresh eggs for breakfast and homemade cinnamon rolls from the Owners of the property. Peaceful, everything you expect to see at a farmhouse and more. From the beautifully decorated entrance and throughout the property such attention to detail . There were touches of fall throughout the home. The view was amazing and we loved watching the cattle and the donkeys. We were able to visit with extended family by enjoying s'mores out by the campfire. Absolutely room for everyone. We were in town for a family reunion nearby, so the location was perfect. We are already planning next years trip! Can't wait to go back!!!! Our hope is to stay longer. Once you are there you will definitely not want to leave.

Breathtaking views. Gorgeous surroundings. Unplug and get grounded!

Two cousins "met in the middle" in Collinsville, AL because this listing seemed perfect. AND IT WAS! We are so thankful for the opportunity to bring our kids- 1, 3, 7, 14 & 16, and ourselves to this beautiful location! We had a blast exploring all over!! We were delighted the day we were set to leave the the cows were so close to the fence by the house. Watching the sunrise is a must!!! We did it every morning! It was a gift from God each day watching out past the pastures as the sun rose over the mountains!!! We enjoyed fires as well as the lighting on the old buildings at night. One evening the moon was so big and bright, we got some awesome photos. The house is more than charming. We were amazed at every turn and enjoyed reading about the history of the house. Wow, just so special! Thank you for allowing us this opportunity! We hope to come back and will surely be sharing about this gem!

Being Part of History

My family celebrated Thanksgiving in Collinsville, AL, at Valley View Escape. It was the perfect setting for our holiday. Sitting on the front porch of this hill top home, coffee cup in hand, looking out across the road at cows grazing on a pasture framed by foothills and an azure sky, I thought "all's right with the world." What a comforting feeling for this, the Holiday of Gratitude. The owner made us feel at home right from the beginning with a pan of cinnamon rolls and coffee ready for brewing. There was even water in the refrigerator! There are two large dining tables, which were perfect: one for dining and one for piecing together jigsaw puzzles. There is plenty of room for a large group. We were one of eight. If you are interested in preservation, you'll enjoy learning about the history and restoration of this home. Donkeys roamed the grounds and added an unexpected thrill by gently approaching us as we walked the grounds. We rewarded them with cut up apples. We spent one day at the waterfalls at nearby DeSoto State Park and Little River Canyon Falls. There are other attractions nearby but we were out of time. We ended our stay on our last night by making s'mores using their fire pit to burn as many marshmallows as we could! Memories to treasure were made are Valley View Escape.
