A three minute drive to Annette Nature Center and on to Lake Ahquabi State Park
Lake Ahquabi offers a walking path around the lake, mountain biking, fishing, paddle boats, canoeing and swimming. The park has just been renovated for additional enjoyment.
We reside on the farm in the house directly south of the house and we are always available should you have questions and/or concerns. If we are out and about doing chores or away we can be reached by our cell phone. Cell phone # listed in the House book.
This is an active farm with chicken's, goats, horses and cows. There is plenty of space for quite walks, hunting Morel mushrooms in the spring, fishing in the pond in our vast backyard, bird watching and just the peace and calm of rural Iowa.
We also have a play area with swing set and slide for the children. A favorite is a tree swing that can be enjoyed by all.
Bikes/Trikes (we have helmets)and outside toys for the children to use and play with. We also have fishing poles to use and worms, and life jackets, but do require an adult down at the pond when fishing.
With this property being an active farm we are often out and about working with the animals and doing outside upkeep. There will be people coming and going to purchase eggs and other farm commodities.
