Beautiful farmstay minutes from I-65 and Smith Lake. Plenty of boat parking

We are a farmstay with barnyard animals located on acres of farmland.
We are 3 minutes off Exit 299 on I-65 halfway between Huntsville and Birmingham. We are 7 minutes from Smith Lake Park and have plenty of parking for multiple boats and ATV's. We are 10 minutes to Stony Lonesome ATV park and offer free boat launching at Hames Marina. We are close to the Shrine in Hanceville and 15 minutes from Ave Maria Grotto and Saint Bernard Preparatory School. We are close to the Rock the South concert and Heritage Park and Wildwater Park. There are several playgrounds minutes away. Discover the gorgeous landscape that surrounds this family farm.
There is nothing more peaceful than sitting on the porch in the morning listening to the birds chirp. There are 3 ponds on the property full of all types of wildlife and wonderful ecosystems.

We were pleasantly surprised by this place. We needed a place for our family to stay for a wedding in the area and this was perfect! The home was comfortable and plenty of space for us. The animals were such a nice treat and exactly what we didn’t know we needed. Would highly recommend The Sunshine house for a relaxing getaway with loved ones.

My family and I really enjoyed staying at this home for a quick getaway. The house was so clean and comfortable. We loved feeding the animals and we all fell in love with the baby goat and kitten. The beds were so comfy and we had all the kitchen supplies needed to cook up a scrumptious breakfast including fresh eggs that we gathered in the morning. We will be back to visit again.

Great Farmhouse

We came to town with 4 of our kids age 1-9 to visit the Shrine. We found this great place to stay. The house was very nice. We arrived in the evening and were immediately greeted at the fence by some mini goats and a very nice farm cat who approached us at the car. The kids loved all the animals on the property from the ducks, chickens, goats and two cats. We love to come to town to visit the Shrine, we will definitely check out this Vrbo again! Thanks Ms. Jessica for the very nice stay!
