The property, purchased in 2016 from hoarders, has been gradually improved by the owners, who are proud of their progress. The front area includes their home, garden (guests can take produce), and a shop for their turf business. Chickens roam freely near the host house, so pets should be monitored.

This property is 110 acres all together. We have cattle that do visit the pastures but can be excluded if need be. Nice rolling hills with Oak Savannas in the low areas. Lots of great native wildlife and plants that bloom from early spring through late summer. In the Fall the leaves are amazing. There is a rough outhouse at the primitive campsite. No electricity but there is water and trash bins located at the farmstead. We do want our guests to be comfortable but this is definitely a rough camping site. You may also want to grab a beef package from us for your stay or to take along with you. Many items available for sale right at the farm. Enjoy peace, quiet, and nature at your own private 70 ac camp site!

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: --Enjoy the deer setting amongst the tree's and nature. Hiking trails close by. Come enjoy a relaxing experience close to the city, the zoo and other attractions. MOST dogs are welcomed -- BUT need to be approved first! before booking. ADDITIONAL FEE REQUIRED - payment at the time of check in Walking trails close by! and restaurants. Verify with host before booking please. The bathroom/shower is located across the yard in the lower level of the main house. Thank you!

Immerse yourself in the charm of a 1907 Nebraska homestead, where history breathes life into every corner. As you step out of your camper, you're transported to a bygone era, greeted by a majestic early 20th-century barn that stands as a testament to the resilience and dedication of the families who cultivated this slice of heaven by the Great Cedar Creek. Relish in the boundless vistas and the pristine, star-filled skies, untouched by urban glare. Revel in the tranquil silence, broken only by nature's symphony and the comforting cluck of hens, signaling the arrival of your next batch of fresh eggs. Indulge in the complimentary bounty of our farm, or carry a piece of this heritage with you to cherish the flavors of a simpler time. You'll have access to a stable internet connection capable of 60 Mbps, ideal for streaming, browsing, and staying connected. The available 110v outlet is ready to accommodate your small appliances and gadgets. While our well water is mineral-rich and flavorful, please be mindful of consumption to prevent depleting the supply. Just 3 miles away, the Rockford State Recreation Area offers a boat ramp and is home to a charming lake. While it may not be the largest, it boasts a swimming beach and supports activities like jet skiing, tubing, and water skiing. An 11-mile journey will take you to the Homestead National Monument, an interesting site that I'll let you discover for yourself. With a population of 12,223, the town caters to all modern necessities. You'll find Walmart, McDonald's, a dollar store, various sit-down restaurants, boutiques, antique shops, and a bowling alley. The historical downtown area, nestled along the Blue River, provides a picturesque backdrop. For a relaxing day, consider a kayak rental to drift along this lazy river. And for those who enjoy cycling or running, extensive recreational trails built over old railroad tracks connect the surrounding villages and townships, offering a scenic route for your outdoor activities. The town is home to a brewery and a couple of cozy small-town taverns, offering an inviting atmosphere for an evening out in the heart of the heartland." Meet our two Australian Shepherds, the true stewards of this land, who will greet you with boundless energy and joy. They are the swift guardians of the homestead, their only charge being the human companion they share their home with. I can assure you that my male dogs have been responsibly managed to prevent any unwanted breeding or aggressive behavior towards other dogs. We request that our guests come prepared with their own sanitation solutions and take responsibility for the disposal of waste. For your convenience, Chautauqua Park in Beatrice, NE, which is only an 8-mile, 10-minute drive away, provides a dump station for such purposes.

A working space table that folds down from the wall that includes a comfortable 3-way chair that can be converted to a lounge sofa or to a comfy little cot that sleeps 1 person. A loft sits above the kitchenette that the kids and/or you short kings and queens will be able to lay your head down for a good nights rest on the memory foam padded bedding. Guest access You will have private access to the tiny home property from the alley behind the main little brick home. The parking lot can fit up to 2 compact cars along with free street parking. The property is completely fenced off with exception of the driveway. *This tiny home is located on the same property as the main little brick house but only accessible via the alley. Please do not disturb guests at the main house address that is 6227 Parker St. Other things to note Although the unit has a bath tub, the water heater is a limited size and not designed to fill the tub with hot water. This water heater will only support quick showers. I recommend spacing out quick showers for multiple guests. To add, the fixtures on the tub are just for design. They do not operate. The fixtures for the shower head bucket are located directly above the bath fixtures located on the wall. They can sometimes be hidden by shower curtain. This is a low flow system that pours out of a bucket. It’s a relaxing old fashioned way of showering. Please do not have expectations of a high pressure shower head you may be accustomed.
