What happens when you buy a burned historic home built in the 18th century, then discover a hidden, ramshackle hoarders cottage on the property? If you are Laine and Kevin, you fix it up and live in it! What could possibly go wrong??? Well, if you are Laine and Kevin, probably a lot!
When you find a hoarders home stuck in the middle of your property the first thing you have to do is clean it out...but that isn't nearly as easy as it sounds. In this case it required several fully grown men and full PPE. Once you've cleaned it out it's time to start the demo! when the floors are rotten demo becomes much easier !
How much cottage do you really have when you have to replace the roof, the sill beams, the floors joists, all the plumbing, wiring and HVAC? Well....not a lot, but more than none! Even a house one third built is more than no house at all, right? RIGHT?
Then, we introduce you to all the members of our team, both four legged and two. We couldn't do this without them! And as a break from the stress and strain lets spend an afternoon at an incredible estate auction buying some amazing antiques we absolutely did not need.
Each step is one step closer!

I mean, I never thought y'all would, but SO glad you kept the cottage and didn't tear it down. It will be adorable and so fun to stay at!
Natchez is so fortunate to have the two of you involved with these projects. Best of luck. (I am going to be spending some time in Natchez soon).
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who gives my dog nicknames and then morphs the nicknames into other nicknames! 😂😂 Looking forward to seeing the progress on this property. 🥰✌️
Me too!❤❤❤❤❤❤
We do that with our two kitties as well.
Congrats on your latest mammal acquisition. More folks need to give cats a chance! 😻
I didn’t like cats at one point either and now I have 5 indoors and feed three strays outdoors! 😂
You guys can turn a pig’s ear into a silk purse so I have no doubt that this cottage will eventually be a beautiful home! ❤
Thank you for all that you do to preserve history!!
I was worried about chiggers until you brought up alligators!!! Hi from Canada. As a Master Gardener and native plant/tree/shrub addict, I think it is WONDERFUL that your property will be full of native species.
You will take it from creepy to charming❤❤❤ charm cottage.
I am 63 and the older I get, the less I want to restore. I am moving towards minimalism from a love of victorian. I just emptied out my garage and closets and I am not done. It has been coming on me over the last year or so, a complete 180 degree change. Do you ever just get exhausted from it all?
Hi Kathleen from a fellow 63 year old! I have recently come to the conclusion that I have way too much stuff! I'm jumping on the minimalist wagon myself. 😂.
I'm 71 and the same. I've downsized DRASTICALLY and am now trying to declutter 50 years of possessions. I just want to be in a pretty little place all by myself.
I have been setting out loads of stuff every day for 2 weeks. I donated over 150 lbs of fabric to a church quilting bee who quilts for charity. I took pictures off the wall and set them out for free for anyone who wants them and I have barely made a dent in my stuff.@@dsa2591
I do lol. I'm 60 and the stuff does weigh you down. I do love my things but the older I get the more I want to downsize too.
After 16 years of old house non stop restoration I completely agree. We had a huge 100 plus years old house cramed full of carefully collected antiques. Sold out 2 years ago moved to a nice quiet suburb. Brick ranch 2,000 square feet. I will always love old houses but don't have another one in me
Our cat TaterBug turned into Tates.. Master Tater.. Bugs..Beelzebug.. Beaner Weaner.. Beans..Bumbley Bees..Mister Beezer Weezer Doodle All Day..Beanie Weenie..Tatery Buggery Bopple Dee Doo...'Buttery Bees & Bacon Bits & Baking Soda Sauce'.. (last 1 is all 1 name! & you have to say it as fast as you can!) & finally Mister Bees.😂
Lol, watching you walk the woods. My sister found a metal phone booth in her woods after she bought it. You never know what's out there😄
i love all the hope farm updates and the little cottage is a treasure cannot wait to see you do your magic again it will be amazing looking forward to the next HOPE FARM UPDATE
I don't find the cottage "creepy," just revolting.
It's important to find the kitty momma to get everyone vet care so there are no more unwanted kitties out there!😻😻😻😻😻😻
As a fellow senior rescue dog mom, I'd love to see a video about your rescue dogs + Lane's passion for rescue
Thank you for this excellent. My late aunt and uncle lived in Houston near Sims bayou. First time owners of their newly built house.
My aunt looked out the window and saw a lg log in the back yard. My uncle wet to see what was up. He ran back in the house telling Aunt Alice "thats not a log...thats a Alligator!!" The yard was unfenced then,soon after a fence was put up. This was in '57.
We live in a 1923 bungalow style house with 3 cats. I also love dogs. I love the work you do on restoring old houses. And appreciating them, and the history behind them. Glad to hear you have a cat now. Keep up the good work.
Hi Laine and Kevin! I hope all has been well with you both and your 8 dogs and 1 new cat, all of whom are so precious. As for that "cottage," I could smell the deplorable odor inside it through the video! I'm sure that odor could make a dish run away with a spoon, and a cow jump over the moon! Someone actually was living in that mess? Wow! That place looks like it was a hideout for zombies on the Walking Dead. But, I digress.......It is obvious this was "supposed" to be a serious video. However, it is clear there was an immediate change of plans at the last moment, which has resulted in this video being hilarious! 🤣🤣 I love it! I know that when you two get through with that cottage, it is going to be a showplace of the exquisite kind. I have a suggestion: Once the main house is fully restored and y'all move into it, let the "cottage" become your onsite office space so that you will be able to completely separate the home from your spectacular business endeavors. Hope Farm and all of its buildings are going to be and look spectacular when y'all finish everything that has to be done there. I enjoyed this video. What was up with that Wizard of Oz type "forest" y'all have on that property? Til the next time. GOD bless!
What an exciting adventure you're taking us on! I'm strapped in and ready to throw my hands up!!!
You did mention the cottage 😊. Glad to see you two again!
I love watching you two! Thanks for sharing this part of your life with us all. I do remodeling & currently living in a mid century modern fixer upper. Lanie, your knowledge of historic trims, mantels, etc, etc is impressive! Keep up the wonderful work! I wish I could join you on a project or two!
You had me at the RENDERING❣ Hurry up please .. can't wait to see the progress 😹 Thank you for this great episode. I love your energies. As Abe Hicks would say you are tapped in, tuned up and turned on! May the WAITING LIST begin on who is going to stay at the enchanted cottage 🪄
You guys are amazing. Thanks for including us in your journey. Keep up the good work !!
The cottage will be beautiful like all the things you do, looking forward to see it all come together with you!
OMG! I am so very excited you bought that cabinet at The Briars. It was one of the few things I wished we would have had our truck to purchase. Simply beautiful
Laine, it was a pleasure meeting you at the auction and I might be reaching out soon for a realtor.
Traveling with lots of pets and fixing up old houses these are my aspirational life goals the closest I've got is two cats. Good luck with this one!!
Love the homes you share wish I had the money to buy one. I love how you rehab and keep the original parts of the houses. Your work is awesome. Thank you for sharing.
Can’t wait to see what you do with it, it has lots of potential to be adorable!
Hey guys, I can't wait to see this cottage when it's completed! I know it will be cozy and cute!! Your work is amazing.....
That cottage is going to be cute when you all get thru making it over. I do hope you get the main house roofed before winter. That has to be a great worry. As always, it’s a great pleasure to see your vlogs !🤗
On the plus side, it will be so easy to decorate the cottage for Halloween 🎃 You should make trick or treaters come up to the cottage to get their treat!
That cottage will be a masterpiece when you are done with it as will Hope Farm. Cant wait to see all the progress! Blessings. ❤
You all are so entertaining! I listened to the pet bit and I realized we are one as a people…
No wonder my fandom is sooo strong! Anyhoo-hope you are well! Stay strong in all the other bullshit you’re dealing with!
Kevin and Laine, I don't know where you find the time or the energy to do all you do! You are truly an inspiration. Your home restoration projects are all so well done and the final results quite beautiful! Further to the alligator in the Mississippi, I don't know if anyone ordinarily swims in the river, but at least two bull sharks, known man eaters and native to the Gulf of Mexico, have been found there. Though I've read verified stories, conflicting as to which one was caught/seen in which part, the first one was in 1937 as far north as Illinois; and, another, in St. Louis, Missouri in 1995, and are among hundreds of sightings reported!
I can't wait to see what you all do with this property! Blessings!
You have my full admiration!! This just keeps getting better and better. So excited to be able to follow along in this journey. With your amazing talent this cottage will be absolutely stunningly beautiful!!! 🏡 😊❤
I just love you guys and the work you do. So awesome. I have learned a lot watching your shows on the beautiful Victorian homes. ❤
I love yall and your enthusiasm and humor and fun! The cottage will be darling can't wait to follow this journey! All your little fur babies are so blessed and I get all the little nicknames I do the same with my critters and they even respond to their little nicknames it's funny. God bless and love from texas!!
Love you guys and love the desire y’all have for saving all these beauties. Love your babies, too!❤️
I love you both so much! I live in Mississippi and appreciate all yall are doing to restore these homes ❤❤❤
All your babies are so adorable. Mine end up with many nicknames also through out their lives. 😂. Oh I laughed so hard during this video! I have no doubts it's going to be gorgeous when your done. 💖💜💖
Y’all are just one of my all time favorites 💜💜💜💜
Laine -- Love this series! I'm in the process of buying a 1910 farmhouse in Northern Arkansas and debating on whether to restore it (the home inspector thinks I would be crazy to but your videos tempt me to do it anyway!). PS Don't let Tank get too fat else you could be taking twice-a-day insulin shot breaks during your renovation projects.
Wow! That cute cottage would have received a match from some people, but I am so glad that it will live on! Would have been awesome to have seen it a hundred years ago. ❤
I hope you see this Lainey n Kevin! For the creepy home, could you make it ADA? A grandparent “pod” that allows anyone to live there? I have been modifying our 1998 home and there is still simple things we need to do. Stone Cottage Adventures, Laurie’s son was in an accident and became wheelchair bound. She moved to an OLD house and modified the house and yard. Great ideas in her 99 life changing ideas! I gave her one idea she added with pull out drawers for the kitchen. I have videos too. I have a few ideas including a poncho that is lined with huge pockets. A friend’s phone was stolen in a hospital (the person went shopping) and no it was not taken to the wash in the hospital sheets. It was Tracked.
We are planning to make a suite in the ell ADA accessible but we couldn’t make the cottage work.
Can’t wait to see the Hope cottage renovation. It is creepy now but there’s beauty to come !
That is one creepy cottage; but thank God you have an eye for what something can be.
Oof that cottage definitely saw better days, and I'm confident you guys will bring her back to (more than habitable) life! Also, here for the doggies and the cat (who may be formerly known as Bones soon? Lol)
😂🤣yes. We’re leaning toward Noodle but he also he gets called “that cat” a lot.
Great video y'all! That cottage will be gorgeous when the two of you do yall's magic. How exciting you are salvaging and restoring the main house! I don't know if I actually said, "Oh, wow! Awesome!" outloud or if I just think I did but I also had a tiny tear come into my eye when I realized y'all are saving that beautiful house. I fell in love with her when y'all shared her with us. The video revealing the devastation from a fire was heart wrenching to watch. I am looking forward so much to all of your work on her and the cute cottage. Love yall's furbabies. They are precious. Love Melissa in the mountains of Virginia. 🙏 ❤
Yes, you have a little project! ❤
"Oh no da porch fall down" killing me 😂😂😂
You guys amaze me!
I saw an episode where Lane used wood epox to fix a door. We have a door that has had several different door assemblies and now is just a big hole. I tried the wood epox and it worked beautifully!!!
Thank you!
Your pets are just delightful. So happy you have a cat! ❤
You DID mention the cottage😊. Can't wait to see it completed! Our youngest daughter and her family have 4 dogs and 4 cats...and she "boops" noses 🤣
Boy oh boy I sure have missed you guys. I have been dealing with health and family issues lately and just haven't been online much. I'm glad to see you again. I know the other day I saw you for the first time in awhile and you were having legal issues with a buyer. I hope you guys are getting that all ironed out. I can't wait to see this project you have coming up.❤❤
OMG Im having flashbacks of when I wound up with something like this in Augusta Georgia. And we were definitely terrified! It was by far the worst project I ever encountered. Took 3 years , but it was a front house a cottage and an outbuilding. The cottage looked just like this after we cleaned it out there were very large blood stains all the way to the subfloor.
OK. So, that just sounds super creepy
But good for Halloween! Booo--oooo--ooo-ooooo!
@@sharisommerfeldt2609 it was . Like Lane said she could smell it from 30 feet away, when I opened the door the smell rocked me backwards. 30 tons of garbage was removed. Never did find anything out about the blood stains. It looked like enough blood lost for a person not to make it but I'm not a medical professional so idk.
This was a fun episode to watch. 😊 I enjoyed all the updates and look forward to seeing more of the cottage.
What an exciting adventure!
You guys rawk !! I LOVE THE LITTLE COTTAGE Look at that doggie she is just as precious as she can be lol I LOVE PEARL OMG
I am so looking forward to this project ALL these projects at HOPE FARM. "The Bean" how adorable is him's. My little doggie she is way to fat her belly almost drags the ground lol. I get tears seeing the fire damage. A JOB I WOULD NOT TRUST TO ANYONE BUT YOU BOTH. You are Angles too, God picks you for the most important jobs. Marge, you are just too darling with that tongue.
Kevin and Laine, you are brave souls I must admit wanting to live in that creepy cottage. In the condition it's in right now it's perfect for a creepy Halloween party! We have a mutual friend in common, Elodie (Catherine) Pritchartt. I dated her father Wiliam Howard Pritchartt, Sr., he was one of the greatest men I've ever know. Love to you both and post pictures if you have a creepy Halloween party!!
So glad to see your Pom baby! I have two and love them to bits. Looking forward to the creepy cottage episodes.
I brought a manufactured home this year. The owner of the mobile home park told me nobody wanted the house because it needed work. The house was FILTHY and had a HORRIBLE odor coming from the stained rugs. Outside the plants and weeds grew knee high!! Plus there was water stains from damage from before. I went ahead and purchased the home. Since buying the house, I have worked on the house every Sunday. Now I heard there's someone who wants to buy my home after I did all the work.
We’ve had 6 dogs at once so I completely understand. Currently we have 4 pugs which technically are called a grumble of pugs. I love your Poms. We have had one of those too & he was one of the very best dogs. His name was Rudy aka Root’n Toot’n Rudy. I totally admire your vision when you see a broken down property. It’s a gift that I definitely do not possess. I always enjoy your reveals & can’t wait to see the little cottage. I also love your historic property tours. Thanks!
Whew! When I read the title on the thumbnail I thought you'd bought ANOTHER falling down cottage. You did mention moving into the "L" at Hope Farm when it was done. The cottage rehab makes total sense to me. After 12 to 14 hour days working on a house, not having to drive anywhere, and being able to stumble to your cottage, grab something from the fridge, shower and fall into bed will save you so much time and energy. Every time someone tells me they gave their new pet a long complicated name, I laugh. Not going to be Mr. Reginald Quintessence FluffyPants Esquire for long! Your floofs are adorable. Really cool to have your own woods to wander, but glad you are being safe. Our main natural danger to pets are coyotes. Even in established residential neighborhoods they've been known to go through dog doors, into the house, and grab a small dog or cat. Maybe some day people will invent a house with walls that automatically expand to accommodate every new piece of furniture you want to buy. Back in the 90s, when we lived in a 925 sq foot house with tiny closets, I'd sigh over the huge French armoires I used to see at the antique mall. Burlwood inlay, fancy carved tops with brass details. Gorgeous. They were 'only' $2,995, but wouldn't even clear the ceiling. :(
I love ❤️ every single restorations that you do and Iam so glad god allows me to watch your videos I love them I look forward to each and every adventure with you as I watch you preserve our amazing American heritage and architecture history thank you 🙏 for what you do it makes my heart ❤️ happy
Yes, you did mentioned previously the cottage and your plans to live in it.
Oh my goodness, I would LOVE to stay in anything y’all have created/restored❤️
You will get there.💕💕Wonderful thanks for sharing all this great news with us.😍😍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
What happened to a few of your projects? I. don't see the final on the lawyer's/judge's house with a cute house you were going to live in next door, and are you still keepers of the grand house ???? If I could, I would buy Pearl is a hot minute. You guys are GREAT!
Love you guys and your talent for restoring houses! Looking forward to seeing the antiques in Hope Farm when it’s done.
Me gusta...su fé y esperanza que ponen en lugares dónde la Gente común solo ve ruinas...❤️🎀❣️
Just finished watching a RUclips show on space saving furniture and thought of y'all and this little house. One of the items shown was a Murphy bed with storage on either side. Made me think of the bedroom in Pearl where you built in storage on the outside wall with a window between. My thought was you could do the same on a wall and put a Murphy bed between the units. I think there was a couch in between the units that the bed came down and rested on. That particular company was Flat Studio in Moldova. Another company had a revolving bed. It was a bed on one side and a bookcase on the other. Just thinking...
The cottage is going to be so cute!! 💖🎀🌺🌺🌺
My own fault for not keeping up on what is going on. I do blame Utube some for not notifying me when a new video comes up. I am a subscriber but as I scroll through my videos I don’t see you as much as I used to until this morning.
Anyway love what your doing with the cottage. It’s gonna look so good n perfect for Hope. I was surprised when you mentioned when Hope is finished that you’ll be living in it. Wow, I think that’s wonderful. But also realize when cottage is done you’ll be living there. Curious will you be selling your house where you live now (when your there)? Really enjoyed this video n got pretty much up dated as to what’s going on. Going to scroll back n try to find others I’ve missed. ( oh, let me say how much I think of you both at taking in 8 dogs n 1 cat. I truly admire you both for giving so much of your love to these fur babies. I wish I could do that as I love animals dogs mostly but my health isn’t the best n it’s not fair if I can’t walk them . Have no fence in yard n they definitely need to be walked.
God bless you both n all your fur babies .
♥️♥️♥️😊👍👍🌟🌟
My heart goes out to that poor old house. All those saveable things will be beautiful again. How about a couple different murphy beds in one or two or more bedrooms? Im too old for this kind of stuff, anymore never had the money to aford a fixer upper. Get a smmallish herd of goats and they will go through that thick under brush and clear.Omg! Alligators! LoL sorry but this reminds me of when I moved from Ohio to Montana. I don't ski or like cold weather, WTHWIT!?! I could/ should write a book. Frist I need a computer! I've been getting by using my Amazon fire reader.Such is life.
I can't wait to see what you do with it! Hugs
Love you guys, look forward to the new projects.
I love your adventures, and can't wait to see the progress on both houses!!
Love you guys and what you do! If I lived near your restorations, I would volunteer my time.
Subtropical Paradise!
Oh I love run down and raggedy houses. This is going to be a treat.
I love Pearl...it is perfection. I stand with you guys all the way.
❤Love the puppies❤ Love you two❣
I am so glad you are back 'broadcasting' after that very unfortunate video you had to put out because of that uneducated and selfish person who was going to purchase 'Pearl'. Even with the trouble and malignment they caused, I am glad they did not buy it. They did not deserve it, or the work you put into it.
a person who truly understands the home and the work to preserve it will get it! With this cottage project, you are really showing yourself as troopers. If you can pull this one off, you are Olympians! Good luck, I'll definitiely be watching.
Thanks for the video!
Yes, you mentioned it when you introduced Hope. Stay distracted by butterflies
Possum skulls are teeny tiny. It looks a little bigger. It might be a raccoon.
Beautiful property. When I lived in Louisiana, my dogs were never outside unless I was there. Too many kill-y things. Can’t wait to follow the journey of Hope Farms and the creepy cottage.
Oh my gosh!!! I have a Pomeranian- he’s my 3rd Pom. His name is Teddy Rue! I call him Roo Roo and I call Mr. Teddy as well. He comes to both of those names. The other 2 poms I had for years before they died. Those two had collapsing tracheas as well. Teddy is too young for his trachea to collapse. Anyway, your fur babies are as adorable as can be!!!!!! I know they must be good and spoiled! This project is going to be soooo interesting! Hope it works out according to the plans y’all have. God bless you all and please take care. Ps- I live in Fl and I hate gators with a passion!!!
Such a cool project!
❤HONESTLY...YOU GUYS ARE SOOOO ADORABLE. I LOVE IT WHEN YOU INCLUDE THE FUR BABIES❤
Love you two ,can’t wait to see what you do lv Ann uk ❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
My3 lil furbabies all died within 5 days of each other. it has been almost a month now and yesterday was the first day that I almost made it all day without crying. Play w those dogs every day. You guys are gonna do so well renovating and living in the cabin and adding that sq footage to the primary residence yet seperate so that future owners can use it as part of the big house or seperate as out back house. Good look
The cottage will make a GREAT vacation rental! It will be very popular!
Seeing that cottage, I’d be for burning it down and starting over from scratch…
Can't wait to see the outcome of the remake. Thanks for the tour of the back property. I am from Natchez and wondered what was in the property from there to Auburn??
It’s just woods between the two!
I haven been watching your channel for about six months now and I just love it. I have a question, what kind of little furball dogs are yours? They are so cute.
We have 3 Pomeranians, 2 Australian Shepherds, a Golden Retriever, 2 strays and a cat
Friends, when you go trudging through the woods next time, please take a compass, a canteen, a billy club, and some alligator spray. 😊😊😊😊
Hahahha! Laine you kill me! "look at it! I found a dead thing! Looooooooooooooook at iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!" You carry yourself with grace and class when need be, and the other side of you is complete Tom boy! I love it!
Exciting! 😊
Re-watching love you guys ! ❤
Thank you!!
Awesome video and very creepy indeed.
Some of the doorknobs looked nice.
