In the heart of Grant Wood Country in Jones County, Iowa, The Barnyard is an eccentric art installation space created from found, recycled, and re-purposed building materials. Gothic and rustic, the space provides multiple camp sites for easy access to bike trails through town and into the Wapsipinicon park across the river from the property. Kayak the Wapsi (we recommend a Matsell Bridge put in with a stop at the historic General Store in Stone City) and end only a mile a way from camp at the Barnyard. Visit the State Penitentiary museum, hang out with the Barnyard chickens, hike our wooded trails, or simply unwind. This place is a magical retreat unlike anywhere else in the world.

Places to see near Xene A.’s Land
Xene and bob were fabulous hosts. Informative and warm. The place is magical. They are so creative. It’s even more beautiful and original than the photos. Great bike ride or hikes within 5 minutes of property in wapsisican state park. Gorgeous. Perfect. 5 stars. A note: despite rural setting of this eclectic and must see artistic place, on top of a hill with lovely country feel you can still hear cars from highway at night.
Just as cool as the pictures look and interesting things for you to find out on your own too!
Peaceful, convenient, beautiful ret
Xene was a gracious, flexible host with great communication. Despite a couple delays in my trip, she made sure I had directions and images of the campsite. The stars were gorgeous and it was a perfect stopover for my road trip. I plan to rebook on the way home!
Xene and Bob have a truly magical space. We had a fun & art-filled weekend and are already planning our next trip back. Can't recommend this place enough.
This was a truly unique experience. Beautiful plot of land. And a unique artistic experience to boot. The hosts are unbelievably friendly, and the site attracts some unique people, artists and otherwise. Great place to socialize, or to just stay private.
It was an amazing place to stay. Also very inspirational and magical. I will certainly come back my next time driving across the country
