Featuring bluffs, ATV/four-wheeler trails, hiking trails, fishing pond, two natural wells, a spring house and more, there are an abundance of activities to do right in the back yard of this farm.

This farm is a perfect getaway if you are looking to be off-the-grid but still within driving distance to town! There is plenty of room to tent camp or park a camper. Otherwise, the farm house itself offers 3 bedrooms and 1 private room with a pullout couch, 2 full sized bathrooms, one full kitchen and a kitchenette, 2 living rooms including the grand trophy room with couches that recline out flat, and a laundry room with a washer and dryer. The Green Farm has central heating and air, 3 TVs, and phone service. There is one air mattress provided.

For your enjoyment, outside the house you can find a grill and a smoker, a covered patio with chairs and a firepit perfect for gathering under the night sky. You can also enjoy your morning coffee or evening drinks on the covered front porch with a scenic view!

For water activities, The Green Farm is within a 30 minute drive from Lusk Creek Kayak/Canoe Access Point, The Scenic Ohio River and Golconda Marina, Bell Smith Springs, Dixon Springs, Lake Glendale, Pounds Hollow, and more.

For hiking/rocking climbing activities, The Green Farm is within a 30 minute drive from Burden Falls, Jackson Falls, Jackson Hole, Sand Cave, Rim Rock Trails, Garden of the Gods and more.

**The Green Farm is 5.5 miles to the nearest rural town, 14.5 miles to the nearest hospital.
**Though there is plenty of room for campers and RVs, we do not offer any hookups.
**Phone service works but is spotty in some areas of the house and surrounding areas. (this is based on Verizon Services)
**There is a small creek/water that runs over the front part of the driveway. 4WD is not necessary but we advise no low riding cars.
**We welcome any motor vehicles or animals, but we ask that you are respectful of all wildlife and the space/furniture/decorations inside the house. Limit 2 big dogs or 3 small dogs.

Mom’s Birthday Weekend

Absolutely loved our stay! We had our two dogs who were able to run and play freely. We went hiking at nearby state parks and had amazing food. The location was great. The property was amazing, we even had a fire both nights. Thanks so much! We will definitely book again.

Great location and spacious land

Great location. Close to Garden of the Gods, Little Grand Canyon and Cave in Rock. Loved the land this farm house is on. The little diner in Golconda was awesome. Highly recommend this property if traveling to Southern Illinois.

Family time

Stay was great wish we had more time. Quiet and secluded my kids loves being able to run. My father was able to take a lot of pictures. The internet was slow in the front room tv rarely worked. Did find a lot of dust on floors. Close to a lot of places and some stores. I will look at renting again in the future.

Great space and property

Plenty spacious and we enjoyed walking the farm, checking out the creek, and sitting outside. It was great to be able to bring our lab. However, she couldnt get settled in to sleep at night with all the animal trophies. I had never considered that being a problem, so we checked out a night early so we could all get some sleep. Lol. This was conveniently located to several of my favorite hiking areas and places to eat. It gave us time together as a family while my son was home, which was the goal. I'd stay again. Walking the ATV road I found fossils and two arrowheads. That was cool!

This house was the perfect place for a family of 5 adults and a dog. It is a great home base from which to visit several locations in the Shawnee Forest.

Garden of the Gods

We truly enjoyed our stay. We fit comfortably, loved the wide open spaces to explore. We hiked the grounds, fished the pond and played. It is a working farm so expect critters. We would stay again. There is so much to do within in 30 minutes. This time we hiked Bell Smith Springs and watched the sunset at Garden of the Gods. Easy check in and check out.

Weekend away

The property was as described and looked just like the pictures. Large outside area to play games (we brought our badminton game and had a family tournament), lighted patio for our nightly card games and fire pit for roasting marshmallows. Inside was clean and comfortable and had all the necessities. Private and secluded, yet not far from town. We really enjoyed our stay! Thank you for sharing your property with us!

Great place to watch the eclipse

We booked this place a year ago to watch the eclipse with our son and his family. It was perfect! We enjoyed cooking out and exploring the property. The best part was watching the eclipse together and away from the crowds. The house worked out great for all of us to stay together. Would definitely recommend!!

Excellent Farmhouse with Lots of Potential (& Some Quirks )

We stayed at the Barndominium Farmhouse for the weekend gateaway with family and friends. GOOD: It is a beautiful farmhouse and all amenities. The farmhouse itself is very spacious and have a small pond, cave and other activities (lots of firewood). The house was very well decorated. The host was very responsive and helpful. PLACE: It is located about 30 minutes from Garden of Gods and Rim Rock Trails. FEW QUIRKS: The entrance of the farmhouse goes through a small creek, so if you have a low ground clearance vehicle, it may not work nice. Also, the house is listed as 10-person home. There are three bedrooms with queen beds. There was another room with a sofa bed. But I would not consider it 10-person home, more like 7-8 people. It also has two full bathrooms. But one of the bathrooms sink (as of March 2024), was really small and at an awkward and inconvenient position right next to the toilet. It should be improved, if the house is to host more people. SUMMARY Overall, it is a great farmhouse with lots of potential. We had a great time with the family, kids.

Fantastic family getaway!

Home is very welcoming & cozy. We stayed over Christmas weekend. The owners had decorated Christmas trees up! Bless the thoughtful owners who left 4 wrapped gifts, under the tree, for the 4 children staying with us. That was such an unexpected, much appreciated, surprise! The property is beautiful and we would love to stay again!

Nice place has pest issues

We enjoyed staying here. Loved the hiking especially the pond. We did notice mouse poop in some of the kitchen drawers and the living room. We also heard critters in the walls when we were in bed. The sheets were also visibly dirty in one of the bedrooms.
