Séjour de 3 nuits en juin 2025 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Elise K. 23 juin 2025 Points forts : Propreté #### A magical little farm! We had a wonderful time! Karen was a fantastic host and generous to include us in her farm and let us enjoy her animals. The house was charming and perfectly disconnected from service for a slow weekend. We enjoyed coffee on the porch with the resident kitty and many visits to see the plethora of animals right outside the guest house. She took us on rides to see the trails and river, and even had my daughter help with a search and rescue training with her dog. The stay was very comfortable and well kept house, like staying at a friends cabin! Right next to Forestville State Park made it easy to spend time seeing the historic town and cave tours. Thank you for a great family weekend! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4a1858c5-0384-4965-818c-b2edfc32ae4a-1750702205410.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/156b4e97-55f8-4b27-88ce-2877ce93453f-1750702204148.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Elise K.

It was perfect for our three kids (ages 3-6). They had a great time taking care of the rabbit, feeding the sheep, collecting eggs from the chickens, and petting the donkey. The property is beautiful. We loved walking out into the field at night to see the stars. We hope to be back again someday. ##### Daniel H. Séjour de 3 nuits en août 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Isaac B. 17 août 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### A little piece of heaven in Minnesota We had an amazing time at the Schmidt farm! From the moment we arrived Karen and Paul treated us like family! Karen took my husband and kids on a 2 hour tour of the land, showed my son how to forage for mushrooms, took my daughter under her wing and showed her everything about caring for the animals. Paul taught us all about their farm and gave us advice on surrounding sights and took time out of his busy schedule to show us all around his farm. The house itself is delightful. A beautiful old farmhouse from 1899 that is perfectly appointed to bring you back in time. We were happy to explore and forage on the 60 acres. The kids just wanted to stay at the farm the whole time. However, we did take advantage of the location's convenient proximity to the Forestville State Park, Mystery Cave, Amish country, and the festivals and fairs in Lanesboro and Chatfield. We even made a trip to the Mississippi river and the Laura Ingalls Wilder museum which is only a little over an hour away! We highly recommend this beautiful farm! ##### Isaac B. Séjour de 9 nuits en août 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Ricci G. 16 août 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Beauiful Farm Experience Thank you Karen and Paul for the amazing farm experience! The peace and tranquility of the farm was exactly what we needed. We loved our morning routine: coffee with M.E., feeding the animals, especially Billy the Goat, and petting Shawn the Sheep. We enjoyed learning about the work that you both do and walking the trails as the sun set over the beautiful mountains. This was our first trip to the farm, and we are already planning our next! ##### Ricci G. Séjour de 7 nuits en juillet 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Jonathan K., Omaha, NE 15 juill. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Great place, great area, great hosts. We would stay again. The home was as described and very, very clean. It is old-school farmhouse while still being comfortable and accommodating. We appreciated the home's vintage as well as the more modern amenities (AC, renovated bathrooms, etc.). The house is located off the county hwy, down a long winding driveway and tucked up against the woods. There are trails right out the back door. A quick and easy stroll will take you to the wildflower meadow with a great view of the river valley. If you have more time and energy you can keep going into the woods, down into that valley and all the way to the Root River. Our immediate neighbors were a donkey, goats, miniature horses, chickens, and a rabbit. We fed and watered them more than necessary each day. We were also lucky enough to be there when several sheep and two llamas had just been moved into the paddock for a few months. If you're interested in birds, omg. The grocery store in Preston (an easy 15 minute drive) had everything we needed. There are coffee shops, boutiques, and ice cream in other towns nearby. Lastly, meeting and visiting with Karen and Paul made our visit even more engaging. They gave us a tour of their farm, the farm shop and answered all of our questions. Even better - they were just fun to chat with as if we were neighbors over the fence. ##### Jonathan K. Séjour de 4 nuits en juillet 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Heather B. 9 juill. 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Time at the farm Our time at the farm was fun for all. We enjoyed exploring the property as well as the local state parks. Would highly recommend for an escape with the family! ##### Heather B. Séjour de 3 nuits en juin 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Rachel A., Houston, TX 25 juin 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Schmidt Farm is a dream This is our 4th or 5th time visiting Schmidt Farm from halfway across the country, and we could not love it more. It’s the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of our daily, scheduled lives. Our boys love the farm animals, the ability to help care for them, and the hikes around the property and adjacent forest. They built tree forts, played with the goats, created games in the woods, had campfires, looked for fossils, and so much more. The guest house had plenty of room for the 6 of us and was stocked with toys and games, a nice perk for the couple rainy days we had. Karen and Paul are everything you could wish for - welcoming, responsive, always willing to educate us on farm life, and so kind to our kids. We’re already counting the days down until we can return. ##### Rachel A. Séjour de 8 nuits en juin 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Amanda R. 21 juin 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Just right farm visit We are a family with two 7 year old boys; we have not had any camping experience and were looking for a home base while we visited Mystery Cave. This place was just right! Paul and Karen are hospitable and generous hosts. They share of their time, talent, knowledge (which is extensive) and even of their harvest. We enjoyed delicious fresh asparagus, garlic scapes and grape jelly during our visit. Karen has a gift for connecting—my boys are both a bit unusual and sometimes difficult to understand, but she made us all feel right at home. She helped them (and all of us) learn how to treat animals and the earth with kindness and respect. By the time our short visit of 3 days ended, the boys were fetching water and hay for the animals (goats, mini horses and a donkey). ##### Amanda R.

Well you found it! We have vacationed for many years in the Driftless. This hands down has been the best Driftless experience we have ever had. Karen and Paul’s passion for the land, stewardship of nature, animal welfare, and environmental conservation has left us in awe of our experience here. Of all of the VRBO hosts we have had, and they all have been wonderful. Karen and Paul have been the best of them all. Do stay here, but leave us a time or two for us to come back. ##### Craig R. Séjour de 4 nuits en mai 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### David S. 13 mai 2024 Points forts : Propreté #### Amazing rural farm and natural woods experience The house and land are amazing. The woods are filled with native plants and flowers with miles of hiking trails. The house is vintage and comfortable for modern living. The yard is open and has several comfortable seating areas including hammocks and a firepit. The animals are gentle and friendly for kids to interact with. The owners are friendly, helpful, and love their job as hosts! This is our second visit and we will be returning as often as we can! ##### David S. Séjour de 3 nuits en mai 2024 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### David S. 16 oct. 2023 Points forts : Propreté #### Amazing experience! This vintage farmhouse is so great! Every nook and cranny is filled with fascinating vintage items from books to antiques and pictures. The setting is beautiful. There is a bit of everything: rolling hills, sunny grassy spaces, meadows, and even a creek. Our family loved wlkig the trails and interacting with all the friendly animals. There are alpacas, ponies, goats, a donkey, icelandic sheep, cats, and a dog! It was a magical family getaway in a completely peaceful setting. It's truly a complete break from modern life (of course there are modern amenities in the house)! And the owner is friendly, great with kids, and fascinating to talk with. Thank you for a wonderful stay! ##### David S.

My wife really enjoyed Karen. My kids loved the animals of the farm and being able to interact with so many. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to a return visit in the future. ##### Brad N.

I took lovely walks with two sweet young kitties and enjoyed the meadow. One day I took a chair out to the meadow and sat and wrote for a few hours. Karen and Paul are lovely hosts. Karen took time to give me a spinning lesson and show me around her workshop! This is a special place and we will return when we can! ##### Martha J.

Séjour de 9 nuits en août 2023 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Linda H. 24 août 2023 Points forts : Propreté #### Fourth stay Karen and Paul are the best hosts and truly genuine people who make our stay with them feel like we’re family. Only better! Every visit we have brought new guests who grow to love this farmhouse as much as we do. Pretty soon we will run out of room to invite all our friends who want to return and we will need to have a lottery to see who gets the chance to return with us. We look forward to next year’s stay with them! ##### Linda H. Séjour de 4 nuits en août 2023
