This farm stay is situated beside 15 Mile Creek, in a private part of the Brookfield Maze site. The front deck frames stunning sunrises and sunsets, casting warm hues over the surrounding hills. Just steps away, a charming garden and a fun hedge maze, perfect for exploring, stargazing, or simply enjoying the quiet beauty of nature.
