Meet your hosts

Our homestead has proudly stood as the heart of this working farm for over a century. Fast forward 100 years, and Station Peak remains a bustling dairy farm.

To share our piece of paradise is a dream come true. We are custodians of a special part of the world, and we farm it with future generations in mind.

We, Olivia and Michael, and our three children welcome you to Kurow. While we have renovated the Homestead to keep 100% of its character, we are no newbies when it comes to large historical projects.
