The Bonnie House is family friendly and can accommodate as many as twelve guests.

The Andrew Room
The Andrew Room, located in the historic main farm house, is romantic and relaxing, decorated with charming antiques acquired over many years. The queen-size bed and matching dresser is made of solid mahogany with brass inlay. These finely crafted pieces were made by the prominent Herder Furniture Company of Philadelphia in 1860. The original fireplace and wall of handmade brick add to the feeling of stepping back into history while keeping all modern comforts. The private bath is located directly outside the room.
