Have you heard the news?!

We are immensely grateful to announce that we collaborated with Yo’s Candles to create a custom vacation scent, in both a candle and room spray, that embodies the historic experience of staying with us.

The signature blend—composed of a 100% soy base (candle), with scent notes of pumpkin, clove, dark bourbon, toasted oak, and maple—perfectly complements the rich history and charm of the the 1897 C.W. Ball Historic Farmhouse.

The Scent, named “Smells Like a Vacation for the History Books,” reflects the warm, inviting atmosphere that the farmhouse invites while staying with us. Purchase either a candle or spray (or both) during your stay to take home with you. Each flicker or spray will be like a narrative from your stay with us, inviting you to immerse yourself in a sensory journey of history, nostalgia, and vacation memories.

*Also, special thanks to vkcreativechaos for creating this custom live edge sign for the display!

A Heartfelt Expression of Gratitude!

We are immensely grateful to announce that Yo's candles are now illuminating the CW Ball Historic Farmhouse. Our signature blend—composed of a 100% soy base, with scent notes of pumpkin, clove, dark bourbon, toasted oak, and maple—perfectly complements the rich history and charm of this exquisite venue.

Our candle, aptly named “Smells Like a Vacation for the History Books,” reflects the warm, inviting atmosphere that the farmhouse embodies. Each light flickers like a narrative from the past, inviting guests to immerse themselves in a sensory journey of history and nostalgia.

We invite you to check out this beautiful farmhouse rental through the attached link. We are honored to have our candles featured as part of this experience!
