Wake Up to Peace and Wide-Open Skies



Escape to the countryside at Oostema Farmstead, a working Wagyu cattle farm just outside Lynden. This private King bedroom -apartment is perfect for couples or solos looking for a peaceful place to slow down and breathe.



You’ll wake to birdsong, fresh country air, and wide-open views across our pastures where our Wagyu cattle graze. Oostema Farmstead is 117 acres of room to breathe, no crowds, no hurry, just the kindof calm that feels rare these days.



This is more than just a place to sleep.

It’s your chance to truly unplug. Whether you’re enjoying morning coffee on the patio, strolling the quiet farm, or soaking in the hot tub under the stars, you’ll find a sense of calm that’s hard to come by. This is your sign to try something different.

    The location was peaceful and quiet. The farm was lovely and the apartment was super clean and comfortable. Lisa has stocked it with everything you could possibly need. The linens were soft, and the pillows were amazing. We slept very well and our son said the pullout bed was awesome too!

    I am a VRBO newb so some of the check in procedures were new for me and a bit more involved than just arriving at a hotel but once in the door I was greeted with a wonderful suite on a fantastic property. I’m a city dweller so the farm vibe was really cool for me. The Suite was spacious, well appointed and stocked with everything that I could need. The hostess and host were welcoming, patient with my lack of experience and eager to make sure my stay was a pleasant one. I was able to kick back and relax, enjoy the country life for a few days and feel at home at the “Inn.” It is a great property, very well maintained and safe... what more could you ask for!? I would happily stay there again and would easily recommend it to anyone in need of clean, quiet accommodations in the area.

    Lisa does an amazing job making our suite into a mini apartment. Stocked amply with breakfast items and snacks galore, we were well provided for. Lots of brochures for local points of interest. Huge comfy king bed. The place was beautifully furnished and decorated. We hated to leave!

    I highly recommend this place. We loved it and we had a great relaxing time and great fun with the cows. The place we stayed was of top quality. The owner did not cut down on the quality of the products and provided everything with the best.

    This was a last minute decision while on a trip. Without any reservations else where, I found Oostema Farm on VRBO. Sent an email to Lisa(the owner) and she promptly responded. Lisa and Glen were able to accomadate us the same day. The place was fantastic! I cannot say enough great things about our accommodations and owners. The place had abundance of amenities, clean and relaxing. Owners live on site at this beautiful farm. They gave us recommendations for activities and restaurants. I consider myself high maintenance and was not disappointed. Lisa and Glen treat you like family.
