Rustic Americana.

Rustic Americana is the restored-farmhouse tier: Dutch stone walls, lime wash, wide-plank floors, wood stoves, and the kind of low ceilings that used to mean something about keeping warm. The best ones (Hasbrouck, Inness, Howland) refuse to overdo it — the buildings stay old, the comfort gets modern, no one tries to make the place feel like a spa. This is where you go in November.
