About this property

Large farmhouse with 80 acres of native prairie.

Find peace and quiet in a secluded, 140-year-old farmhouse on eighty acres of managed prairie and flowers. This family-sized property is perfect for extended family and photographers who love to shoot birds and pollinators! Property near Walnut Grove, MN of Little House on the Prairie fame. This is the perfect retreat spot for avid photographers and nature lovers.

This home was homesteaded in 1874 by Johannes Jensen. He was a contemporary of Charles and Caroline Ingalls of Little House on the Prairie fame, who were also homesteading in that area. You can observe an unnatural looking hill beyond the end of the driveway that is the remnants of the dugout Johannes lived in prior to the house being built.

Great Family Stay!

We visited the area for a wedding, and needed a big place for our family. Caroline's place was comfortable, clean, and had plenty of space for us to spread out. She was a reaponsive and helpful host. Checking in and out was a breeze and we had everything we needed. Will stay again!

Weekend Graduation Getaway

If you are looking for the old farmhouse experience, this is the place! Lots of rooms, plenty of bathrooms to accommodate a large group, and plenty of seating in several areas. It was the perfect place for us to relax in. It was a beautiful area to take a walk, too!

Peace in the country

We had an amazing time staying here. It was very clean which is one of my top requirements! Bathrooms were newly remodeled but obviously still has the country feel through out the entire home and property. Beds were also very comfortable. We had fun sitting around the fire pit and enjoying the beautiful Midwest green and country life.

Pretty on the Prairie

We enjoyed our stay at the farmhouse. We particularly loved the restored Prairie where we watched birds and butterflies and, the quiet of the landscape. With the heat dome, it was nice to have AC, too.

We had a fantastic stay!

This property is beautiful! We were a group of old friends visiting Walnut Grove and the prairie, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect location. It's a historical home, but modernized and spotlessly clean. The hosts could not have been nicer or easier to work with. Our only "complaint" is that we didn't stay longer to enjoy it more!

Country Farmhouse

My in-laws, wife, daughter and I stayed here while we were in the area during the first weekend of November. This place was perfect for us. Plenty of room and everything we needed for our stay. The house is in great shape given its age and is a beautiful property. We loved the history of the location. Thank you for your hospitality! We will most likely be back!

Perfect Getaway

Beautiful home, beautiful scenery. Loved the rural location, very peaceful with plenty of area for the kiddos to run around outside. Several small towns close by if you need groceries or want to dine in or do take out (I highly recommend Bonnie & Clyde's in Westbrook). House was clean, beds were very comfortable and host was quick to respond when we had questions. The perfect "halfway" destination for our Nebraska families to meet up with our Wisconsin family. Special thank you to the hosts for providing a wonderful place to stay! o House was clean, beds were very comfortable!

Lovely stay

This modernized farmhouse was beautiful, comfortable, and spacious for our large group and number of kids. We had a great time playing out in the large yard and enjoyed spotting wildlife on walks around the farm. It was quite an experience for our city kids to experience a more rural lifestyle for our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed this home!

Quiet, remote, charming farmstead

Loved this old farmhouse! It has been modernized but still holds it's charm. Beautiful prairie views, quiet, lots of room inside and out to roam or gather in several areas. Clean, comfortable and great host. If gathering in the area again, will definitely stay here. Thank you!

Charming Country Farmhouse

We loved staying at this property! It’s nicely kept, clean, charming, nice furnishings, updated bathrooms, nice appliances, spacious yet cozy and intimate, very comfortable beds, and kitchen had everything I needed! The grounds are very nicely kept. Gorgeous gardens and lots of space to get away, take a walk and enjoy the prairie and its vast views. We did the Little House on the Prairie attractions, but enjoyed staying at the Farm the most! We are a family of 8 and hope to return.

Beautifully Restored Farmhouse

I stayed here with my kids, best friend, and her kids. We had the best time at this home, and there were enough bedrooms for all of us (6!). First, the home is absolutely beautiful with so much charm. Second, it was spotless! The property was so peaceful with rabbits and deer running around. Such a gem to find! The owners were easy to get ahold of, were flexible with our plans, and responded promptly to any questions we had. Would love to stay here again in the future if we are ever back in the area!
