Homesteaded more than 100 years ago this farm is somewhat stuck in time. Once this was a prosperous dairy operation. Location location location, this place is my slice of heaven on earth. Located in the corner of 4 townships on an extremely quiet road. Our farm now raises grass fed beef and wooly pigs pastured along driveway along with the usual cast of a farm, dogs, cats, chickens, guineas and goats

Don't worry, you won't be driving in it!
We are offering the opportunity to stay on the back hill of our ten-acre rural property. You can go for walks around the pasture on our mowed trail or just sit and enjoy the beautiful Minnesota views.
The site is on a gravel road and you cannot see our house from where the bus is parked. While you can see the neighbor's house, it is still very dark at night and excellent for stargazing.
The bus will be disabled for guests; it will not start or move. While there are electric fans, AC, and a TV with DVD player, there is no electricity available (bring your own generator if you want).
There is a cassette toilet with instructions.

It was the first weekend in April so it was cold and snowy. The campsites are well situated so they drain well. The beautiful trees, even without their leaves protected us from the wind. Two cats were running around and mostly kept their distance, we did find paw prints on my daughter’s air mattress when she woke up, she loved it.
We enjoyed the Pygmy goats, regular goats, and loved the wooly pig. We enjoyed time hiking through the woods and flying kites next to the corn field. The bathroom is in the basement
of the house with its own entrance and complete privacy. It was great. Travis met us when we arrived and showed us the property. He asked
Us what we needed and made sure we were taken care of. He was reachable if we needed anything, and gave us complete privacy. We bought a dozen eggs, and they were fantastic. My daughters were blown away by how good fresh eggs are. The whole atmosphere of a farm with old equipment and buildings was great. Property is very well kept. There are tons of open places to stand and enjoy the beautiful stars and no lights. We are planning on going back again.

We enjoyed our stay so much! This is a lovely, quiet spot. Easy to find, but no highway noise. Check in was straightforward with great communication from the hosts. You can see the other sites, but they are comfortably separated. Beautiful sunset view from under the giant old oak tree shading our little camper. We were so happy to have had the opportunity to stay and would definitely recommend.
