About this property

Honeybee Cottage at Star's Hollow Inn and Farm Hobby

Honeybee Cottage is a private cabin on a hobby farm which is located next to a beautiful pond and beach area as well as 140 acres of beautifully groomed trails. It is creatively decorated and full of amenities, including a coffee/tea bar. Make use of the games/books/DVDs that are provided. Relax on the porch, sunbathe on the beach, take a hike or mountain bike, skip rocks in the creek, start a bonfire (S'mores provided) and listen to the many sounds of nature while enjoying the evening sky. Or perhaps you want to experience milking a cow?! Our hobby farm, Star's Hollow, is located 15 min North of historic downtown Cedar Falls and 10 min South of Waverly, IA. Lots to see and choose to simply drink some sweet tea on a swing under a big shade tree. With chickens, ducks, pigs, bees and a milk cow (and her calves;), along with deer, wild turkey, owls and bald eagles... you will experience nature at its fullness. This is truly the land of milk and honey!

About the host

Hosted by Penny Franke

Host profile image
Dan and I became country folk almost 5 years ago when we found this beautiful property just north of Waterloo/Cedar Falls, Iowa. We never knew how much we would love running a hobby farm, which includes milking a cow (by hand;), lots of chickens, beekeeping, gardening, bread making, canning, etc. We just cannot keep this little piece of paradise, which is adjacent to 140 acre trail system, all to ourselves any longer! The property has an adorable cabin, which we have named Honeybee Cottage, along with a private and spacious lower level of our home, named Bella's Suite (after our jersey cow;). Come and see how beautifully blessed we are to live on this property which is truly the land of milk and honey! We will do everything we can to make you feel as though our home is your home! In fact, don't be surprised to find some farm fresh eggs in your refrigerator, along with some other yummies;). Hope to see you soon!
