The gravel road to U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie's home snakes its way up a hill, past a tree he's tapping for maple syrup, and ends at a home he built of timber and stones he hand-chiseled. 

His house sits at the top of a hill on his 1,500-acre farm in Garrison, Kentucky, which is about 100 miles east of Cincinnati. It took about four years of work before his family was able to move in.

"We have a double-wide up this holler that we lived in for a while," repthomasmassie said. "900 square feet with four kids and I kept telling her, 'Honey I'll have the house livable any day now.'"

That was more than two decades ago. Since then, he's been elected to Congress seven times. His four children are grown and married. Rhonda Massie, his wife and high school sweetheart, unexpectedly died in June 2024.

Massie invited The Enquirer to his farm in Garrison, Kentucky, in March. The small city is home to just over 700 people, according to the U.S. Census. The major features of it include a local grocery store, drive-through tobacco shops, and trails people use to ride their ATVs. 

The area is home to Massie's off-the-grid home and farm where he spends his time when he's not in Washington, D.C.
