This custom designed glamping lodge was a dream of mine for a long time. I wanted a place to go to unwind and be with one with nature. But! wanted it close to town so I do not have to travel far and still be close to the city attractions.
AC and Heat are in the Lodge
The lodge backs up to a large hill--called the Loess Hills. Many deer, raccoon, possum and turkey call it home and so does a few pets of mine to include a mini schwazer and two goats. They just love being adorned by new people. I think you will find this a perfect place for a good nights sleep.
Learn more about this land:

Small but neat. Plenty of amenities to make your stay enjoyable. Loved the relaxed vibe of the whole place. Disappointed we didn't take more time to explore the whole property buy we enjoyed just hanging around our spot in the time we had there.

The cabin was great! It was in his backyard but right up against the tree line so very quiet, private & secluded. The goats were a great surprise to see in the morning. Thank you!

We only stayed during middle of winter for a total of one night, arriving late and leaving early. We were just passing through. Great stay! Got pretty chilly at night with both heaters on but otherwise very western, cozy little cabin. The property owner was very kind!

We loved how unique and charming the lodge felt. Rob has done an amazing job creating a getaway, that simply shifts your focus onto nature, literally in his own backyard. We highly recommend to anyone looking for a quick weekend getaway!

Weekend Trip to Arrowhead Lodge of SW. Iowa.
This was a really cool find! You would never think you would be right in town by pictures. When you go to the restroom you’ll get greeted with the sweetest dog!:) there is so many cool things to look at in the yard and cabin!
One thing I would tell future campers is if you want to use a blanket be sure to bring one. There was one on the main bed but only big enough for one person. I didn’t ask if there were any extras tho.

Best way I can sum up Robs property is that it's just like camping, except there is a bed, air conditioning, and heat provided. Rob has set the cabin up very well, and there is a small table with chairs and some books and games if interested.
My partner and I like to tent camp, but when it's too hot or cold for us, we find simple cabins that provide a space to cool off or warm up but still space to cook outside and live "simply" Robs property gave us the perfect chance for that.
As a warning to others though, that maybe wouldn't bring a car full of camping supplies to stay, the cabin does not come equipped with cooking supplies, plates, cups, etc. There are restaurants close by, but If you're looking to just relax and stay in, you'll have to be prepared or plan to door dash food.
The space is cozy and feels extremely private, even though it's at the end of Robs property. It feels like you're away from the city. The bathroom is accessible through the garage, and is apart of the main house. It is clean, and Rob even put towels out for us. The large sink in the restroom was a great place to do dishes. While the site description includes water and a picnic table, there was not a picnic table, and the water is from the houe (you have to locate it, it's not right near the cabin)
This is a hipcamp listing, not a 5 star Airbnb. If you are searching for a 5 star BnB, this ain't it. But a great hipcamp? Absolutely!

It was so nice to get away for a weekend and Rob’s land was a great “in between” - it feels very much part of the land and surrounding nature, while being very accessible to main roads. Would definitely recommend!

Rob was a great host! Communication was excellent. The property was super cute and well cared for. The lodge is tucked back in a very private nook in the trees. We enjoyed the grill and fire pit onsite. We were lucky enough to see a family of deer in the woods, and loved interacting with the two sweet goats on the property. It’s a perfect little oasis close to Omaha! Thanks for sharing your beautiful property, Rob!

This was a neat little spot to stop for a night. Basic and private, with a little porch to sit on while listening to all the summer insects, and a barred owl visit in the middle of the night. The host's communication was great and directions were clear.

The aloha camper was so fun!!!!! I seriously recommend it to anyone trying to get away, spend some time alone, or just change things up. All the neighbors were so kind, everything was so convenient, and it was so cheap. I want to go back every year! Thank you Jen :)

Second stay at Arrowhead Lodge. We were in town for my son’s baseball tournament and the College World Series. It was great to be an easy 15 minute drive to the middle of everything and then be able to escape to complete solitude in as much time. Clean, quiet, cool (love the AC) and secluded. Rob is a great host and the space he has created is worth a visit. Highly recommended.

Surprisingly private and cozy little getaway. Despite the lodge being in the host’s backyard you are quite secluded. Using the bathroom/shower in the main house basement seems a little awkward at first but it actually works fine. The host was accessible yet respectful of privacy and gave us recommendations for food, activities… positive experience overall for sure.

This spot is the perfect cross between camping and a hotel. Clean bed and bug free place to sleep and hang out but feel like you are still one with nature! The artifacts and decor give such a great vibe! Highly recommend!
