This listing is for those who like to get off the beaten path. You'll walk a 500 ft trail from your parking space to this unique mushroom dome that's been taken over by gnomes. Enjoy the sounds of nature on the trail past our garden and through the woods. Enter the playground of the gnomes. Find the green door to the tiny mushroom house in the big trees. Available summers May 1 to September 30. Other months it maybe available without running water by special request depending on the weather.
The space The property has no record of agricultural use other than pasture. It is a remnant of tall grass prairie transitioning to forest. We believe good management includes all our plant species and find great pleasure in helping so many diverse plant species and animals in our habitat. There are two small streams cutting through the southern part providing wonderful natural habitat with trails cleared most years. It's great for sitting in nature, walking or birdwatching.
Guest access Feel free to ramble. Watch where you're going as there are some very steep ditches. Don't chase the duck or chickens. If you open a fence or gate please close it too. If you would like a tour around let us know.
Additional rules Please call or message us if you have any questions or problems.
Pets: We love our dog and don't mind well mannered four legged visitors but please make sure to keep the couchs covered if pets visit.

Every Relaxing! Extremely Peaceful! You will need to love the great out doors to enjoy your stay snd the sweet sounds of Nature. The walk to your venue is a journey so be sure you are in shape to do so. The lighting at night is dim. You may need a flashlight. Sue the home owner is a wonderful lady
