Our sustainable farm is set on 5 acres in rural Indiana, replete with pastures, vegetable gardens, woodlands, and beautiful views of rolling hillside. We're passionate about being responsible stewards of the land, growing our food using ecologically beneficial methods, and we strive to teach others about how to grow their own food. Come stay with us to learn a little about sustainable farming, take a tour (usually evenings by appt) of the farm and say hello to our hogs, horses, sheep, and chickens, or just sit back and enjoy your stay in this cozy private cottage in the countryside. We operate a CSA with our farm-grown foods, and we invite you to pre-order veggies and meats to be waiting for you in the home when you arrive.

The cottage is located in a private wooded area, about a mile down a country lane from the main 80-acre farm. It's well-maintained and spacious, with three bedrooms, a full kitchen, a reading nook with some books, and lovely views of the farm. Return home for a cozy evening inside after a day of exploring the farm, checking out the nearby hiking areas, spending a day out on the water, or sightseeing in Monticello. We're out in the countryside here, which means that there's plenty of nature to see and great views of the stars on clear nights, though it also means that our wifi signal can be pretty slow -- take this as an opportunity to take some time away from the screens.

Not far from the farm is the quaint town of Monticello, which has a water park, good fishing spots, lakes, and a reenactment of the French and Indian War every October. We're also less than an hour's drive from Purdue University, which has basketball and football games in season, and we're close to Hoosier Heartland Highway. About a mile from the farm there's a place to put a boat in the river, if you're looking to spend some time on the water during your trip. Let us know if you'd like recommendations on what to do while you're here. We look forward to hosting you!

Think about booking us for small intimate weddings, parties, Purdue game weekends and just to unplug from the hustle and bustle of life. Think about us for short business trips. Contact us for special business and traveling nurse/doctor stays for quotes.

    We have enjoyed our stay here very much! The owner has beautiful flowers growing as well as vegetables and fruits that we were able to pick and enjoy! The home is the quintessential farmhouse. It is decorated very nicely. Also has all the amenities you would need. The area is very rural and quiet, it has been very peaceful. Has brand new washer/dryer. Plenty of books to read and family games to play as well. There are two porches that are nice to sit out on during the evenings. The owner has been very accommodating and nice to talk to. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

    Abby was an exceptional host who was very communicative and accommodating. She was always welcoming and made sure we felt at home. And she gave us a tour of her beautiful farm that we will never forget! Although the location was remote and peaceful, it was less than 30 minutes from Indiana Beach, where we all had lots of fun at the amusement park and waterpark. We enjoyed sitting at the fire pit, the beautiful landscape view, and the overall farmhouse experience. Thank you again, Abby!! Our family had such a wonderful time at your home!

    The gorgeous photos of animals led my grandkids to look forward to at least a short tour to see some, but it didn’t happen. The house was very clean with new appliances, and the owner was welcoming, but busy and hard to reach. And the house sleeps six, not eight.

    A lovely place to disconnect from everyday busy life. Abby is a super host. The communication with her was excellent. The place was clean and cozy. We enjoyed the nature around it very much.

    This was our second stay at the cozy well maintained, very clean, farmhouse. The hosts go out of their way to make sure that guests have everything needed for a wonderful stay. The farm fresh organic produce was such a bonus. The grounds are very well kept and having the forest was very tranquil.

    Property is peaceful. Staying at the farmhouse, allowed us to focus on the many tasks associated with setting up a new construction project.
