-----Quirks of the house---

This limestone house was built in 1873, although it has been renovated, it is still an old house.

The upper floors are original and do creak a little

The exposed limestone walls do "shed" little bits of limestone and mortar from time to time even though we clean very thoroughly.

The pull out couch is a full size and is best for small adults or children. Before pulling out, carefully move the antique coffee table and other furniture out of the way.

Guest access
The entire house and yard may be accessed by guests. Anything locked will not be accessible which will only be storage areas.

Other things to note
Quirks of the house:
This house is located on a one way street. If not parking in the driveway, make sure to park the correct direction.

Although we have renovated the space, and are continually making improvements, because it is an old stone house, we have had a bat into the upper attic in the past. We take every effort to prevent this, but we cannot control nature.

I'm obsessed with: old houses and animals
My husband and I love anything old or interesting. And enjoy sharing our historic properties with guests! We run a business called Restore and Clean, rehabilitate old houses - but when we aren't working, we enjoy playing with our three dogs, and hanging with our mini pigs, horses, donkeys, alpacas, chickens, ducks and geese. We live on the edge of Hays and can be to you within 5-10 minutes should you need anything during your stay.
