About this property
Peace & Simplicity in a Little Red Cabin on the Farm
Our sweet little red cabin at Four Bucket Farms LLC is ready for guests! Located on the front corner of our 16 acre hobby farm in Lena, IL, this 400 sq ft cabin was built by our family with help from friends. It has a welcoming front porch, master bedroom with queen bed, sleeping loft with two twin mattresses, pull-out couch, a small kitchenette and 3/4 bath. Our farm is home to a small herd of Highland cows, chickens, cats, dogs and occasionally a flock of turkeys. We are surrounded by farmland and 1/4 mile down the dirt road from the back access of Lake Le-Aqua-Na State Park. We welcome friendly dogs (2 dog maximum), they must be on leash at all times and there is a $25 pet fee.
We are very proud of this project and hope you'll consider it the next time you're looking for a cozy, comfortable, peaceful place to relax in the country.

About the host
Hosted by James Baxter
We moved our family from the Chicago suburbs to the small town of Lena in fall 2020. Since then, we’ve added animals to the hobby farm, expanded the garden and completed this small cabin so that family, friends and guests can also enjoy this quiet corner of the world.
Why they chose this property
One look down the tree-lined drive and we fell in love with the property. It also has rolling hills, tons of mature trees, beautiful views and it’s on a quiet, gravel road.
What makes this property unique
The little red cabin sits in the southwest corner of our working hobby farm that has Highland cows, turkeys, chickens, our cats and dogs. We are also 1/4 mile down the gravel road from a gorgeous state park.
