We gave thanks! Blueberry Manor was the perfect house for our family of 18 (12 adults and 6 children, aged 9-17 ) to celebrate a multi-generational Thanksgiving. The house had plenty of space to gather and quiet nooks for time alone. Having a dining table that accommodated all of us was a real plus. The third floor is a perfect space for the teens. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, cutlery, glasses, pots and kitchen tools. It is large enough to have many "chefs" working together. The outdoor fire pit is lovely and the night sky was perfect for star gazing. There is a large lawn that lent itself to football games and some soccer action. Our puppy thought the deer strolling through the lawn were waiting to play with him. That didn't quite happen! The farm was an easy 1/2 mile walk and everyone enjoyed meeting the chickens, geese, donkey, horse, miniature horse and bunnies! Breakfast with farm fresh eggs was a nice way to start the day.
We had a pizza party one night with pizzas which we ordered and picked up from The Dale. They were excellent. We also bought food from Forage and Gather Market which had a nice selection of pies and other holiday foods. They ordered pasture raised turkeys for us and we cooked them in the house.
Susan and Joseph were responsive hosts.
