Darrell and Dawna Motz built a separate building on their family farm in 1995 to be home to That Country Place, a unique and cozy shop for country and Victorian accents, crafts and gifts. It was the start to a steady business idea that would help diversify the family farm and allow Dawna to remain at home with their two sons.

In 1998, the couple came across an old 1930’s farmhouse and had it moved 60 miles to their farm. Darrell and Dawna could see the potential it would hold as the next step in their business as a cozy Tea Room.

After months of hard work, the walls of the old house were filled with the sounds of people enjoying a cup of tea, a delicious lunch with friends and special occasions.

The last step to developing the house to its full potential saw the couple stepping into another area of hospitality. In November of 2001, That Country Place Bed & Breakfast was ready to welcome overnight guests.

2005 has seen some more changes as the gift shop part of the building has been renovated to make room for another Bed & Breakfast room.

A special invitation is yours to experience everything That Country Place has to offer.

There are no strangers in life, only friends we have not met!
