We loved staying at the Nauvoo Farmhouse! The owners thought of everything to make our stay enjoyable! The kids loved the front yard swing and games in the basement! Very comfy and homey feeling.

Fantastic home for family stay

We had a wonderful time here. The property was very clean and well maintained. There was plenty of sleeping space and room for relaxing. Our kids loved the arcade games in the basement and the trees and swing outside. It was easy to message back and forth with Jason when we had questions. He checked up on us a couple times throughout our stay. We felt very welcomed and comfortable.

Our family has stayed in several properties throughout the years--and this may be the best. If you are looking to experience Nauvoo, this is the property to stay at. The home was very, very clean and very accommodating. The owner was great. The yard was terrific! I would stay in this place again without hesitation.

We LOVED this home. It was the perfect place for us to stay. It was in a great location to all we wanted to see in Nauvoo, it was clean and had plenty of room for each of us. My kids loved the game room in the basement, my mother-in-law loved the washer and dryer, my husband loved how quiet it was, and I loved the front porch as well as the deer we'd find in the yard. They owners were great as well. Welcomed us warmly and communicated everything we needed to know about our stay. We will be staying here again when we make it back to Nauvoo.

Your kids won't want to leave the house!

Clean, comfortable, and beautiful home in the perfect location for all the Nauvoo sites and the temple. I was nervous to go to Nauvoo, as we happened to be there during a pretty brutal heat wave. We are from Seattle and not used to that heat and humidity. The house saved this leg of our trip. We went to enjoy the historic sites in the morning, and then home for AC, ping pong tournaments and arcade games. We had plenty of space to spread out- really nice after being in a hotel. The kitchen was easy to cook in and even had an air fryer. And the laundry facilities ended up being really useful. I would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Jason McDonald

Host profile image
My wife, Sarah, and I have been coming to Nauvoo for over 15 years. We love the tranquil area and beautiful people. My wife is originally from Australia and we have regularly bought her family to visit this amazing area. We now live in Illinois with our 4 children and enjoy the opportunity to explore this great country whenever we can.

Why they chose this property

When we first saw this farmhouse, we were completely drawn to it. The original owners have over 100 years invested, being built by their great grand-father. This home has been lovingly restored to it's form glory, with all the modern amenities you'd expect from a new home. The character and quirks of over 100 years are beautiful to see.

Nestled on the quiet country road of Parley Street, guests will enjoy the peace and quiet, but will also enjoy being so close to the sites and energy of Nauvoo. Historic Nauvoo boasts an abundance of activities, plays, musical performances, pageants, restored homes and shops. There is so much to do and see. Guests are close enough to come home for lunch and nap to re-charge for a full afternoon of fun.

What makes this property unique

- 2 acres of room to run, play, relax or picnic on the lawn.
- Guests are a close to places like Casey's and Dollar General for all your food and needs.
- Deer and other animals can often be found roaming the property early in the morning.
- Guests can take a morning or evening stroll down Parley to reflect or take in the country air and quiet.
