Peace and quiet

Guests say this home is in a quiet area.

Escape to our charming farm cottage, where you'll be greeted by farm animals including mini donkeys, turkeys, alpacas, and reindeer! Our cozy getaway is perfect for nature lovers, families, or couples seeking a peaceful retreat.

Sip your morning coffee on the deck while watching our reindeer frolic in the pasture, creating a magical start to your day. The cottage features a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable furnishings, and all the modern amenities you need for a relaxing stay.

The space
Your hosts are right next door, ensuring a seamless and stress-free stay! Whether you need local recommendations, assistance, or just a friendly chat, we're nearby and happy to help—while still respecting your privacy.

Please note that our farm is located near train tracks and near Interstate-74, so occasional train and traffic noise should be expected.

Being on a working farm means you may occasionally notice beetles or other small insects inside the cottage. While we do everything we can to minimize their visits, a few might sneak in from time to time — it’s all part of the charm of staying close to nature!

We host several seasonal events on weekends, including a Spring Market (1st two weekends in May), a Summer Festival (1st two weekends in August), a Pumpkin Patch (every weekend in September and October), and a Christmas Market (weekends in mid-November through December). We will also be hosting a haunted trail along the back side of the property on Friday and Saturday evenings in the fall. During these events, our farm is open to the general public. Please be aware that during these times, there will be increased activity on the farm, including visitors, vendors, and family-friendly festivities. While your cottage remains a private retreat, you may hear the sounds of cheerful guests and farm activities during event hours. Guests are welcome to join in the fun, explore the markets, and enjoy seasonal treats, but participation is entirely optional. Parking may also be busier during event weekends. If you have any questions or prefer a quieter stay, feel free to reach out—we’re happy to help!

Guest access
Guests have private access to the Cottage, and are welcome to enjoy the yard immediately surrounding the Cottage. Please do not approach animal enclosures or enter the pumpkin field or farm buildings unless accompanied by farm staff.
