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...

We invite you to turn off your phone and unwind on the front porch rocking chair as you watch one of our breathtaking sunsets or sunrises. Pasture and grassland with 7 ponds are accessible by a short hike along the cattle trails. A marked perimeter trail follows Wolfe Creek, home to wildlife and a shady cool spot during the hot days of summer.
Mulberry Cottage is at the northeast corner of a 200-acre cattle ranch where we practice rotational grazing on ten paddocks. The cabin, surrounded by Mulberry and Osage Orange (Hedge Trees) are host to berry eating birds and mammals. (And the occasional marsupial). Cattle are fenced outside the cabin area but may be close by where you hear them and see them. Deer and coyotes are common on the property as plenty of birdlife. The cabin is a farm-stay experience with farm fresh eggs, and Mulberry preserves for your baked goods in the morning.
You will need your muck boots and cowboy hat to hike our cattle trails and wade in the creeks. Try your hand at "frogging" in the marshes of one of our 7 ponds. Bottle-feeding a calf or collecting eggs are some of the chores you are welcome to participate in. You'll be amazed at the variety of wildflowers and birding opportunities. The head cowboy himself will invite you to chore time or have a farm tour of our grazing and regenerative practices. Our natural beef and tallow products are all for sale at the farm or grill up some "Ohnemusbeef" available at our farm store. Sourdough bread with Mulberry preserves are available. Campfires are permitted with a small firewood fee.

Everyone was so kind and helpful! Had plenty of stories to share about the property and all the animals on it. Such incredible views, awesome trails, and the animals are so kind and welcoming to strangers. Also have so many activities that they can accommodate. I would recommend this place to anyone!

My family had a great time at Windy Goat Acres. Jessica was very friendly and accommodating. We love spending time feeding and watching the animals as well as exploring all of the little areas set up all over the property. We walked several of the trails and loved the view from the top of the hill. While I'm not personally fond of staying in cabins (this was a family gift), I would definitely go here again just for all of the experiences.

We really enjoyed our stay at Pilgrim Heights! We originally booked the Pinn Oak Cabin/bunkhouse but it was unavailable. The staff were quick to respond and moved us to the oak Lodge, which honestly better suited our needs. We found the lodge to be spacious, clean, comfortable with a full kitchen, full bath, and even a little bunk house. The only thing that I have to say as constructive feedback is that there was a coffee pot and coffee filters, but no coffee. Also, one wall of the lodge is almost entirely windows and the window coverings are somewhat limited so when the sun came up a little after six, we were up with it. Still no complaints and we stopped for coffee locally after a well rested night. I would recommend to other others and we would definitely stay again. Although we didn’t get to enjoy the amenities, the grounds were beautiful with a large fire pit and a beautiful view of sportsman Lake.

If you're looking for a break from everyday life, this is the place!
Jess & Jim are welcoming, accommodating and super helpful if you need something (like going out to get propane, swapping it out & coming in to start the fireplace- thanks again, Jim!)
Such a special spot & they make it feel like a "home away from home" - offering beautiful yurts & cabins, add-ons like dry firewood and a waffle bar (HIGHLY RECCOMEND!), a spacious farm filled with fun & quirky animals and hidden gems all throughout the property.
I can't put it into words just how grateful I am for Windy Goat Acres, Jess & Jim, and a spot where I can just breathe and rest my soul.
Until next time!❤️

It’s a beautiful space, even - or especially- after leaf fall. In a valley with a mix of woods, shrubs, and meadows, and some wooded hills. The barnyard has the noisiest, most active and spirited farm animals I’ve ever seen. Sometimes the horses roam the grounds freely and approach you for treats. At sunset, the hills of surrounding properties are glowing yellow. Jess has created random, whimsical spaces all over the property that make it feel like an enchanted fairy forest.

We booked a quick couples getaway to Windy Goats are were pleasantly surprised. The cabin had everything we could have needed and more - air fryer, hot plate, microwave, coffee maker + coffee, fridge, towels, comfy bed and a relaxing view.
We loved walking around and getting to see the animals in such a laid back vibe. At night we popped over to the garden bar to hand out and have a drink. What a magical setup.
We ordered the add on wafffles in the morning and they were delish! Plus a bit of fun to have it all brought to you to make in the morning.
Would recommend checking this gem out!

Fun things to see and do everywhere. Little hidden gems around the property turned a simple walk into an adventure. Every square foot of this property has been given thought and purpose. The add-ons are clever and fun, don't miss out on this place for a weekend getaway.

We loved Lady Morphia’s! Cozy and comfortable space. Loved the fireplace& fire pit on a cool fall evening. Would’ve loved to stay longer to go through the great book collection in the loft bedroom. Morning coffee on the front porch with the Bohemia Alps views was a lovely way to start the day.

The Llama Llama Sunrise Cabin is beautiful! It's very cozy and inviting. I was worried, unnecessarily, that I'd forget to pack things - Jess has the cabin stocked with everything you may need. The big windows were beautiful at night. You can see the stars from the bed. We enjoyed exploring the property and meeting the animals. It was a very peaceful experience with wine in the tub under the stars and coffee on the deck in the morning while watching the animals.

We loved our experience. It was nice to get away from the city and have a relaxing experience among the animals. We had a mule at the garden bar and enjoyed learning more about the property from one of the owners. There is fun art pieces around the property. We walked the trail and it was a nice hike. There was a fire pit outside our cabin where we grilled our dinner while having a beautiful view of the animals. Highly recommend checking out this unique property for a relaxing stay.

The perfect getaway with our baby! The cabin was very comfortable with wonderful amenities included. Thank goodness for the A/C since it was a warmer weekend than we expected it would be. Loved all the little extras like all the books and record player. It was awesome to get some farm fresh eggs and firewood delivered to our door. We would definitely love to come back!
