About this property

Large farmhouse with 80 acres of native prairie.

Find peace and quiet in a secluded, 140-year-old farmhouse on eighty acres of managed prairie and flowers. This family-sized property is perfect for extended family and photographers who love to shoot birds and pollinators! Property near Walnut Grove, MN of Little House on the Prairie fame. This is the perfect retreat spot for avid photographers and nature lovers.

This home was homesteaded in 1874 by Johannes Jensen. He was a contemporary of Charles and Caroline Ingalls of Little House on the Prairie fame, who were also homesteading in that area. You can observe an unnatural looking hill beyond the end of the driveway that is the remnants of the dugout Johannes lived in prior to the house being built.

Refreshing!
A perfect meeting location for five life-long girlfriends to gather, with plenty of space, comfy beds, a well-equipped kitchen, and cozy sunroom for relaxing and catching up! A tranquil landscape view and no city sounds nor light pollution, we were blessed by the sights and sounds of nature and glorious starry skies at night. A convenient location to visit historical sights and parks. We would love to see the gardens in their full glory in summer! Hosts are very responsive and truly cared about our experience and their property.

Country Farmhouse
My in-laws, wife, daughter and I stayed here while we were in the area during the first weekend of November. This place was perfect for us. Plenty of room and everything we needed for our stay. The house is in great shape given its age and is a beautiful property. We loved the history of the location. Thank you for your hospitality! We will most likely be back!

Nice place for a gathering
We had a sisters’ gathering of 5 gals here. It was great with lots of space and places for conversation. Everything was clean and nicely done. The property must be really beautiful in the summer when the gardens and prairie are in bloom.When I had questions both before and during the stay, I always got a quick response from Caroline. The house is an old renovated farmhouse, so there are odd steps here and there with slight level changes between rooms. Also, the steps to the upstairs are quite steep, make a turn, and do not have a railing. I mention this because people with mobility problems might find this a challenge. A couple of other small things were that the lighting on the main floor was pretty dark in all rooms. In order to play games around the dining room table, we moved a couple of lamps into the room temporarily. Also, I guess we would have preferred to have the dishes and silverware stored in the kitchen rather than the dining room cabinet. All in all, we had a great stay. We could easily envision staying here again with a larger group.
