Other things to note Please note that Herring Creek Farm is an authentic piece of Americana. The manor home was built in the 18th century and is filled with genuine antiques. The property is a working farm with a waterfront component. For these reasons, the property is not handicap accessible. There are many cobblestone walkways and narrow staircases, and though we've renovated several areas of the home (including the gourmet kitchen and your private ensuite bathroom), this historic home does not meet many modern building requirements for accessibility. Should you choose to explore the grounds, please be wary of the wildlife surrounding you. The natural habitat of the farm includes bugs, plant life, allergens, and wildlife (and mud — lots and lots of mud). As homeowners and stewards of the land, we do our best to educate our guests on any concerns we might have depending on the time of the year, but we always recommend you bring clothes appropriate for the outdoors, wear bug spray, and leave your high heels at home.
