Quiet and Full of Nature

We enjoyed our time at this property. The Quonset Home was nice, clean and relaxing. We enjoyed walking the area that included a trail and animals. The owners were very kind and communicated well. If ever staying in the area again, we would definitely stay here.

Charming cottage

Host was incredibly accommodating and friendly. Awesome property with interesting history- my son loved watching the horses across the road. Perfect location near trails, restaurants, and shopping!

Incredible Experience

This property was awesome! It was very clean (and I’m a bit of a stickler), well-appointed, and in a lovely setting. The host was very communicative, which was reassuring. My trip was really to just unwind for a few days and I was really able to do so here. It was also still convenient enough location-wise for me to pop into the city for a quick day trip. I will look to stay at this property again and highly it recommend it to others.

About the host

Hosted by Bruce Johnson

We purchased this property in 2014 and have fully rebuilt & renovated this original 1890's farmhouse. The Quonset was placed in the 1950's and we fully renovated it in 2017. We lived in the Quonset hut during the renovation of the main home until this past year.

Why they chose this property

When you drive into Trout Valley, you will feel like you have escaped to paradise. Unlike any community in the area you will experience rolling equestrian countryside. Trout ponds and streams, Tom Saywer pond, hiking trails and private roads that ramble down to the former Polo field and Fox River front park

What makes this property unique

Trout Valley was the home of John Hertz (Hertz Car Rental Founder) back in the 1920's.
This area was his private estate until 1950. At that time the Otto Scherring family(Curtis Candy Founder) purchased this estate and made it the home of his private farm used for growing livestock & produce they used for his candy making. In the 1960's Scherring sold the property to a developer who built out the remaining homes that you will find in the Valley. We love calling Trout Valley our home.
