Girls Christmas weekend
It was so quiet & peaceful. It was really great to stay at a farm with so many animals around. Perfect size for the 3 of us. The Communication from the just was the best! We had some bad weather and they made sure to check on us and see if we needed anything, I’d stay here again!

Fun Experience!!
Cute shabby sheik house with animal friends everywhere you look! We enjoyed sitting out front feeding berries to the chickens and peacocks:) Really laid back animals who want to hang out with you. The house was clean and the beds were great, I slept like a rock! Fun experience!

Great location, fabulous hosts!
Great location to the Amanas. House was well stocked with all necessities and beds were very comfortable. The animals were a hoot and the hosts were the kindest we’ve ever had at a VRBO. They showed us around the property and the beautiful wedding venue they own.

A lovely place to stay
We loved our stay at the farm. Deda was so kind as was her husband. The animals are really cool. We live on a farm as well with most the same animals so it was kind of like being at home. We loved the free range peacocks and fields for us to hike through. It was fun to see the animals from the windows too. The house was clean and the beds super comfy. They left us chicken, quail and an Emu egg for breakfast in the fridge for us. The kids LOVED seeing the Emu egg. There is a cozy fireplace and very lovely artwork in the house too. We baked and cooked a bunch and spent a lot of time at the house. The grocery store is very close as is a very cool 1965 built 6 lane bowling ally. We would totally visit again if we are in the area. Thank you again for a wonderful stay!!

Great stay and experience
For a city gal raised in Chicago this was so much fun. The house is great, plenty of room to stretch out and get comfy. 5 minutes from Amana. We ate Sunday brunch at Ox Yoke Inn… yum yum. Best part of the trip, besides chatting with Deda were the critters. Oh my the peacocks knock on the patio doors to get their berries. Ed the Emu is a hoot. Kune kune pigs to pet! So much fun.

Our stay was peaceful, beautiful, and the owners were very kind. Just wish we could have stayed longer. Loving outdoor farm animals is a must, which we do love them that is one of the reasons we chose this place. I would recommend you staying there. 👍

Absolutely beautiful. My boys said it is the best VRBO we have ever stayed in. And we have a LOT to compare it to: Vail, Breckinridge, Costa Rica, California, Bahamas, Mexico. Thank you, Dedra!

Sisters birthday getaway
This was the perfect place for the five of us sisters to celebrate one of our birthdays! Deda, the hostess, was so friendly, and greeted us when we arrived. She acquainted us with our surroundings and the numerous animals that live on the farm. There were even fresh pastries from the local bakery in Amana, which we enjoyed for breakfast the next morning! The house and furnishings were wonderful, comfortable, and cozy! The house sits on 22 acres and we enjoyed walking around the property and seeing the unique and friendly animals. It was amazing to have peacocks walking so close to us. They would even come to the patio door, waiting to be fed berries that Deda and her husband had picked from their property. We had only a short time to enjoy the comfortable patio, but the views were beautiful! Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer! Thank you to you, Deda, and your husband, for sharing your home with us. We have already recommended it to others and would not hesitate to come back!

Amazing Home with an Animal View
Had a Great Experience! Was so peaceful and relaxing with the Best view! We had Peacock’s and Chicken’s greet us when we pulled in. Loved walking around the 22 acres and looking at all the friendly animals. The house was completely redone with beautiful decor. We will definitely stay here again!
