Magical
What a great experience that this house provides! The large great room with pool table and musical instruments gave our family the space to lounge, relax and reconnect. The town of Kent is minutes down the road with delicious restaurants and entertainment. The northwestern area of Connecticut is teeming with natural beauty and the rustic stone swimming pool was a great place to spend all day outside and off technology. It’s definitely a unique rental experience that makes for a great break from the ordinary.

Gorgeous cabin on a beautiful property
We had an amazing time hanging out in the pool, enjoying the fire pit, grilling on the porch, throwing a frisbee on the lawn, and just hanging out in the spacious cabin. Plenty of beds and couches, nice kitchen (with two refrigerators), and a cozy vibe all around.

Farm and Funk (the good kind)
We wanted a low-key place with a swimming option and loved our stay. A little something for everyone--chickens, peacocks, beautiful pool, musical instruments, pool table, and just overall a very unique and lovely property. My only suggestions would be to add some hooks to hang clothes n towels (bathrooms/bedrooms) and maybe put up some type of privacy element between house next to pool and the pool itself (potted plant/curtains, etc) --would enhance the privacy element. Though again, loved our stay and would return. Our pooch Lola loved it too - she is not a chicken chaser and seemed to not to want to leave either.

Great location for Kent School
House was very clean and good communication with the owner. I was a little disappointed that they charge $75 a night per person on top of the regular rental rate. We had two parents and our 2 kids and had to pay for 3 extra people (the place sleeps 14). I’ve done rentals all over the world and this is the first time I’ve encountered this. So please prepare to spend that extra money.

About the host

Hosted by Paul and Linda

Host profile image
I am a local craftsmen, fine home builder and musician married with four children. We encourage travelers from all backgrounds to come visit Kent and explore the Litchfield Hills.

Why they chose this property

We love Kent for its unique blend of rural simplicity and cultural flair. The air is crisp, the water is clean and the rural underpinnings of this progressive town instill a calm tranquility and measured appreciation of the natural surroundings accessible to all from The Spirit Horse Farm.
Our farm dates back to the founding of Kent, and remains an iconic property which once housed the local nursery school and kindergarten.

What makes this property unique

The Litchfield Hills offers visitors an exciting mix of easy country living with up to date cultural experiences in arts, music, entertainment, shopping and fine dining. Kent offers travelers access to all of these benefits plus offers great outdoor activities including hiking the Appalachian Trail, fishing, rafting and kayaking the Housatonic, or exploring miles of preserved land. Motorcyclists, and automobile enthusiasts also find Kent to be the perfect destination or way point while driving the Route 7 corridor through the Bershire foothills. The Spirit Horse Farm is located just at the north end of town and offers both convenience and a private retreat for rest and contemplation at the end of the day. Night time activities include barbequing, fireside gatherings indoors or out, and an opportunity to visit with the horses, work out in the gym, shoot a game of pool, or swim in the moonlight.
