The farm has been in the family for four generations.
We don't have any livestock anymore and rent the fields to the neighbors but the home, outbuildings and five acres are well-loved and used as our home base and also for rustic weddings, graduation parties, reunions and barn dances.
In 1974, the farm was used as the location for the TV movie "Things in Their Season" starring Patricia O'Neal.
We put up one of the first barn quilts in the county and are on the route of the Bike the Barn Quilts bike ride (held last Saturday in September.)
Learn more about this land:
Pitch your tent or roll your RV up to a beautiful farmstead (we no longer have animals, crops only). We are a rustic wedding / event venue located mid-way on the Mountain Bay Trail, Wisconsin's longest rail-trail which runs about 90 miles from Weston to Green Bay. Fire pit available. Views of farmland all around. Quiet and peaceful but not secluded. (See pictures on Facebook Country Events at the Koeller Century Farm.)

Ever want to leave your job and unite with nature? Me too, after 10-plus years of tax preparation, I found myself with a desire to farm and to become closer to the food we take for granted. This farm is unique in that it was cleared and stripped of its topsoil and its fill was sold off to the state. What was left behind was a pond and some poor farmland. I purchased this less desirable property inexpensively and have been working tirelessly to regenerate the property to a farm that mimics nature and our natural ecosystem. I have planted over 1000 trees and perennial shrubs to move this property into an oak savannah-like natural farming system. In 2015 I purchased this property without any farming experience and have begun to transform this property into a beautiful destination. We look forward to seeing you and welcoming you into our ecosystem.

Definitely fishing opportunities, as well as floating down the river (tube, canoe, kayak, sup). There's a nice swimming hole right out from the campsite.
The other property is on my pasture-based farm. It's a few miles from the Little Wolf. There is the "FarmStay" Camper, as well as a couple campsites nestled in the woods with a great views of the pastures, woods, and wetlands.
We've also recently added a pond that's able to be used by our guests to swim in!
There are 100+ acres that can explored on this 100% pasture-based beef operation. We're working on improving the trails. It's beautiful out there!

One of my favorite home away from home’s.
This property will help you reground and connect with nature. I have added the necessities of life, while keeping the property as natural as possible. My goal is to share this great experience I’ve created with you and your family.
From the outdoor shower to the walking trails that weave through the woods and over Tibbet Creek you will love your stay!
A couple of the sites are more remote than others by design. Not all can be driven up to. The furthest would be approximately a 500’ walk. A wagon is available to carry your items to your site.
There is a large pond if you would like to fish or swim, and a John boat and a paddle boat to use also.
Each site has its own fire pit with a cooking grate. Firewood available for purchase on site.
Most sites are set with views of a water feature.
Some tents are available to rent if you don’t have your own.

Wild Daisy Take Care Farm
Where silence sings and stars spill stories —
beneath a velvet sky, wide and wild,
you’ll hear the lullaby of crickets,
the soft croak of frogs,
and the wind weaving through whispering trees.
Sunlight dances on open fields,
and summer nights cool the soul.
Autumn paints the woods in fire and gold,
while spring stirs the earth with tender green.
A creek calls to wandering feet,
trees stretch their arms for hammocks and dreams,
and time slows to the rhythm of nature’s breath.
For those who seek more —
a patch of land awaits your touch,
a place to plant, to grow, to begin.
Yours, for a little more,
and forever yours to tend.

Microfarm Meadow Maze

Cloverleaf Farms DC Meadow Maze was created with special needs families, the chronically ill, and terminal patients in mind. We offer a rural farm experience directly across the road from a world-class cheese operation.
Spend time in nature roughing it primitive-style in our field maze, and then enjoy amazing breakfast sandwiches from the bistro across the way. Alternatively, you can enjoy farm-fresh eggs cooked over your own campfire.
We accommodate RVs, tents, and car campers. We have one specific spot for cars that faces west and offers a beautiful sunrise location. Our field camping area has two groomed spots: one includes a fire pit, and the other is more rustic, facing northeast where the eagles fly. Please specify which style of camping you prefer when booking.
We expect our visitors to interact and spend time on the farm. Our experience is designed to give you an up-close and personal encounter with the animals who call this farm home.
We provide an eco-toilet that we compost ourselves. If you have another plan for managing waste, please communicate with us prior to booking so we can ensure everyone is maintaining sanitary conditions.
Please note that there are wild rabbits, birds, snakes, spiders, crickets, butterflies, worms, and moths, plus seasonal mosquitoes. This is their home; you are the visitor. If you are unable to handle this level of nature, please consider booking elsewhere. We do not "clean up" nature; we allow you to experience it. Please be respectful.
This is a wild, rustic, and rural experience with fantastic views in a unique location. If you are tired of noisy campgrounds, you will find it very quiet here. Though we are located immediately off Highway 57, the road disappears against the backdrop of nature.
We also have one single bed available for the right person seeking a farm experience. Since this room is located within our home, additional vetting is required prior to occupancy.

One of my favorite home away from home’s.
This property will help you reground and connect with nature. I have added the necessities of life, while keeping the property as natural as possible. My goal is to share this great experience I’ve created with you and your family.
From the outdoor shower to the walking trails that weave through the woods and over Tibbet Creek you will love your stay!
A couple of the sites are more remote than others by design. Not all can be driven up to. The furthest would be approximately a 500’ walk. A wagon is available to carry your items to your site.
There is a large pond if you would like to fish or swim, and a John boat and a paddle boat to use also.
Each site has its own fire pit with a cooking grate. Firewood available for purchase on site.
Most sites are set with views of a water feature.
Some tents are available to rent if you don’t have your own.

Wild Daisy Take Care Farm
Where silence sings and stars spill stories —
beneath a velvet sky, wide and wild,
you’ll hear the lullaby of crickets,
the soft croak of frogs,
and the wind weaving through whispering trees.
Sunlight dances on open fields,
and summer nights cool the soul.
Autumn paints the woods in fire and gold,
while spring stirs the earth with tender green.
A creek calls to wandering feet,
trees stretch their arms for hammocks and dreams,
and time slows to the rhythm of nature’s breath.
For those who seek more —
a patch of land awaits your touch,
a place to plant, to grow, to begin.
Yours, for a little more,
and forever yours to tend.

Microfarm Meadow Maze

31mi from Howard · 3 sites · Tents, RVs
Cloverleaf Farms DC Meadow Maze was created with special needs families, the chronically ill, and terminal patients in mind. We offer a rural farm experience directly across the road from a world-class cheese operation.
Spend time in nature roughing it primitive-style in our field maze, and then enjoy amazing breakfast sandwiches from the bistro across the way. Alternatively, you can enjoy farm-fresh eggs cooked over your own campfire.
We accommodate RVs, tents, and car campers. We have one specific spot for cars that faces west and offers a beautiful sunrise location. Our field camping area has two groomed spots: one includes a fire pit, and the other is more rustic, facing northeast where the eagles fly. Please specify which style of camping you prefer when booking.
We expect our visitors to interact and spend time on the farm. Our experience is designed to give you an up-close and personal encounter with the animals who call this farm home.
We provide an eco-toilet that we compost ourselves. If you have another plan for managing waste, please communicate with us prior to booking so we can ensure everyone is maintaining sanitary conditions.
Please note that there are wild rabbits, birds, snakes, spiders, crickets, butterflies, worms, and moths, plus seasonal mosquitoes. This is their home; you are the visitor. If you are unable to handle this level of nature, please consider booking elsewhere. We do not "clean up" nature; we allow you to experience it. Please be respectful.
This is a wild, rustic, and rural experience with fantastic views in a unique location. If you are tired of noisy campgrounds, you will find it very quiet here. Though we are located immediately off Highway 57, the road disappears against the backdrop of nature.
We also have one single bed available for the right person seeking a farm experience. Since this room is located within our home, additional vetting is required prior to occupancy.

Weekend Trip to The G Farm
What a cozy, snowy retreat at the G Farm. I was looking for picturesque solitude and I got it!
The tiny house was perfect for just me and my watercolor paints. The space heater kept me plenty warm even though it seems that we are actually having a proper winter this year in Wisconsin. Comfy, cozy, and very private.

Above and beyond! That's how Brenda and her family role. They are the most genuinely kind and caring people. They truly treat you like family.
I took my 2 kiddos (ages 8 and 9) and our dog, for a fall camping adventure. The property is absolutely beautiful. Their are 3 campsites right on the river. We happened to be the only people there, so we had it to ourselves! But, would be a perfect spot if you have a larger group to book all 3 sites together.
Brenda and her family truly made us feel like family. We had a couple bumps in the road- it was my first time taking my kids camping by myself, but they made me feel like I had a safety net, in case anything happened. I felt completely safe and it put my mind at ease.
My daughter said if she could rate her stay, she'd give it "450 trillion out of 5 stars". My son said, the experience was, "one for the books"- meaning he had so much fun, he can't stop talking about it. :)
Aside from the top notch host, they offer things to do, like kayaking and fishing. They will even drive you to a place to start and you'll finish at your campsite. They have 2 docks right on the river, which offer gorgeous views of sunset and sunrise. Also, just to bask in the peacefulness surrounding you.
I could go on and on about how amazing our experience was... but you should check it out for yourself!
We can't wait to go again!! We're already planning our next adventure there!

We stayed on camp site one. Absolutely beautiful over looking the open fields where there were cows off in the pasture. The land was vast and extremely gorgeous. The site was nestied just in side the wooded area but the opening allow for sun light and star gazing. Rachel and her boys were so polite and accomidating. We were invited to the farm however did not make it over there. The sun flower feild was beautiful and we were able to pick as many as we wanted. The local towns offered plenty do with a lot of small town charm. Definitely would go back and camp here in the future.

Fishing off the dock, kayaking the river, getting to meet some of Brenda and Josh's "pets" (a stud horse and the sweetest little goat!) whilst stoking a fire was the perfect weekend escape. Yes, the train horns do occur, but we thought they were funny!
Seeing a flock of 50 Sandhill Cranes all take off at once was a speechless moment along with watching changing leaves gently fall onto the river 🍂🛶.
Plenty of firewood and kindling on site as well as all the water and eggs you could chug!
Brenda was thoughtfully communicating throughout brooking process and a gracious host during our stay. We can't wait to come back with some friends!
Can't recommend enough for fellow camping sweethearts and nature-loving families. 👏🤗
