Fleming Jones Homestead B&B

Rooms have views of the mountains, forests, rose gardens and our World Champion quality miniature horses that are raised here on the "Pharm".

    The Flower Basket room and Lover's Fancy both have access to the shared porch and beautiful mountain views.The bunkhouse room.  Very western and great fun!
    The Bunkhouse's bathroom.The Flower Basket Room is just the place to snuggle up in wintery months with a steming cup of hot coffee/cocoa/cider and a good book...!
