My family settled on this plot of land at the turn of the century, moving west in a covered wagon. And aside from a brief time in the late 80's it has been in our family ever since. For most of the 20th century the property was a small farm, grazing cattle and mowed for bailing hay. We are trying to rejuvenate the property and breathing some new life into this old plot of land. Learn more about this land: The Hill, aptly named, is a hilltop that slopes down to a large pond that divides the twenty acre property in two.  With plenty of room to stretch your legs you can enjoy a nature walk. In the evening enjoy the night sky around one of several fire rings, while roasting marshmallows. Easy access and only a quarter mile from the main road. Potential for Noise: MoKan Speedway and Active railroad nearby

Located on 65+ acres of private prairie, this property offers over three miles of walking trails with numerous spots for reading, napping, stargazing, and meditating in complete privacy. It’s ideal for those seeking time away from society, undisturbed. Unplug your devices and reconnect with what matters most. During your stay, you’ll have exclusive access to 65 acres of native prairie and three miles of walking trails. The surrounding land is used for low-intensity grazing and hay production. If you have mountain bikes or fat-tire e-bikes, they can be used on the trails. You can also explore countless miles of nearby gravel country roads. The last 2.5 miles of the drive are on gravel roads. A half-mile two-track across the prairie leads to the camper. In dry conditions, it’s accessible by most vehicles except low-clearance sports cars. If that’s all you have—or in extremely wet conditions—the host can provide transportation for the final half mile up the hill. Campfires are permitted except when conditions are too dry or windy.
