We love animals, plants, art, and outdoor recreation and love sharing these things with people! We found the perfect little plot for all of these things we love. Nature, art, animals, and lots of space! The hilly, lush land is also known as the Bohemie Alps and it's quite a beautiful area tucked away in Iowa.
Visit with the llamas, goats, peacocks, potbelly pigs and the horses and hike around the property or stay in for a quiet stay with a good book and enjoy all the sights and sounds. Lots of extra 'add ons' to enhance the experience, like a waffle bar kit, smore's package, hikes, and more!
Semi wooded property with hiking trails, hammocks, aerial silks, campfire pit. 5 mi away is Otter Creek Lake, a recreational park for fishing, kayaking, swimming, etc. We have 2 kayaks available. So much to do! Also perfect to just relax, meditate, yoga, sleep...

Welcome to The Prairie Lodge — A Rustic Retreat on Historic Land
Nestled in the heart of the Driftless Region of Northeast Iowa, The Prairie Lodge sits on 200 acres of native prairie and timber as part of the Cook Heritage Farm Estate. This cherished family property has been passed down through generations for over 173 years. The property borders the scenic Turkey River and is surrounded by rolling farmland and gentle bluffs that lead toward the mighty Mississippi River. Rich in natural beauty, the Driftless Area is geologically unique—never touched by glaciers—and is known for its caves, underground streams, blind valleys, sinkholes, and cold spring-fed creeks.
The Prairie Lodge, once the main “corn crib” used for drying and storing harvested corn, has been thoughtfully renovated into a comfortable and charming retreat. Inside, you’ll find a full kitchen, two bathrooms, a cozy living room, and an open loft with four queen beds. The loft comfortably sleeps eight and can accommodate up to ten guests with a blow-up mattress if needed.
Step onto the east-facing patio deck with your morning beverage and watch the sunrise over fields of blooming prairie flowers. Wildlife is abundant—deer, rabbits, songbirds, pheasants, and even eagles are frequent visitors. As night falls, the second-floor deck becomes the perfect spot for stargazing and listening to the calls of coyotes echoing across the land.
Next door to the Lodge, you’ll find the Bin Bar—a once-abandoned grain bin transformed in 2017 into a unique gathering space ideal for late-night storytelling and nightcaps under the stars.
For those traveling with a larger group, RV campsites with full water, sewer, and electrical hookups are available near the Lodge. If additional accommodations are needed beyond the Prairie Lodge, please contact your Hipcamp host for details and availability.
Activities nearby: Iowa towns including Decorah, Clermont, Elgin, Elkader, and Prairie Du Chen, Wisconsin are within driving distance. Each town boasts its own fun for day and evening entertainment including local artisan wares, antiquing, hiking, biking, golfing, water recreation, breweries, and dining spots.

2 nights at Windy Goat Acres
We had a very nice time at the farm! I highly recommend getting the add-ons...we did the goat experience and popsicles with the pot-bellied pigs! We had lots of visitors around the cabin over our time there. We went to Amana and came back to horses and peacocks hanging out around the cabin! We loved exploring the property as well- lots of things to see and check out.

Windy goat offers a kaleidoscope of experiences, and no two visits are ever the same. Each time I go back, I see something new that Jess has added. The landscape and hidden gnomes and fairies along the various paths on the farm reward the attentive viewer. It is a great place to recharge your batteries, and store up some whimsy to face the mundane world.

From the whimsical touches to the friendly farm animals, my stay at Windy Goat Acres was truly memorable. The property has such a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes it easy to relax from the moment you arrive. The owners were incredibly communicative beforehand and even provided a charming hand-drawn map, which made exploring the different areas of the farm both simple and fun.
The cabin itself was cozy and inviting, with a calming scent that immediately made it feel like a peaceful retreat. One of my favorite parts of the experience was adding on breakfast—the fresh waffles and farm-fresh eggs were absolutely delicious and well worth it.
The only minor drawback was the lack of curtains in the cabin, which initially caught me off guard. However, there is a nearby bathhouse for changing if you’d prefer additional privacy. By the next morning, I found myself appreciating the unobstructed windows as the sunrise filled the cabin with beautiful natural light. It ended up being one of my favorite parts of the stay.
Overall, Windy Goat Acres offers a unique and relaxing getaway with thoughtful hospitality and plenty of charm. I would gladly return for another visit.

We had an amazing time at Windy goat acres. Everything was exactly how the listing described it. It was myself my husband and 212-year-old girls. The girls had a great time exploring and having an adventure. The only downside was the heat, but Jess and her husband did everything they could too help with that. We had great AC in the llama llama chalet. And we had the unexpected bonus of there being a Mermaid hosted event that weekend, so the girls got a chance to wear mermaid tails and swim with some real mermaids. Highly recommend the waffle breakfast. It comes delivered with more toppings than I could keep track of. We also did the goat meet and greet and the piggy Popsicles. Even without adding any extra as it would be a great weekend.

Our family had a magical time at the farm! We stayed the whole weekend and never had a dull moment - from exploring the property to bonding with the animals to a surprise mermaid party, we had a great time! We were relaxed from the moment we arrived and were taken care of well by Jess and Jim. Highly recommend. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to The Prairie Lodge
Me and two friends stayed here for a weekend of fishing. It was easy to find and communication was great. We didn't spend a lot of time at the lodge but really enjoyed the privacy, remoteness, and quiet. The place was set up really nice with everything we needed. I would highly recommended staying here and may be back myself in the future.

The chalet was a beautiful location overlooking the animals with an easy to maneuver trail system. It was also a nice distance from other rentable places so you did feel you had space. Hosts were very kind and we enjoyed the extras with the animals. I did wish there was at least blinds/curtains for the bedroom for some privacy while changing, especially given that this is a frequently traveled area of the property.

This is an animal lovers dream! I brought my dog and it was a really special experience. After enjoying the animals, we hung out on the porch overlooking the farm and read for hours. It was so peaceful! One piece of advise if staying in the llama cottage… there are no window coverings so you may want to bring an eye mask if you want to sleep in to block out the sun. I knew this in advance so I was happy I packed mine!

Jess was welcoming and terrific in setting up the bunny enclosure for us to feed and cuddle the bunnies 🐰. Our cabin was Lady Morphia's Castle which was inviting and well stocked. My favorite time was sunrise coffee on the porch with my daughter, and tranquility of listening to the birds.

Holy buckets! This place is corner after corner after delights revealed! Everything place you look there’s another magical thing to see! Triplet baby goats, kittens leaping in tall grass, a sweet hobbit house appearing on the trail, a short walk to your pals’ yurt and a sweet fairy garden that leads to a stage-in-field where even our teenagers were transformed back into less angsty versions of themselves! Essentially I (a known non-camper) was thrilled to stay in the sweetest a-frame cabin with a cool blast of air conditioning, a couch and a wall of books! I was charmed absolutely! And am planning a return trip before summer’s end.
