Come stay with us and enjoy FARMHOUSE LIFE!

We are much more than a hotel - Your room is attached to nature, not a lobby!

We are much more than a campground - We provide hassle-free camping. No need to buy all that expensive camping gear. No need to load and unload it or set-up a campsite. We provide the gear and set it all up for you!

We are much more than an event rental site - What could be more fun than hosting your private party in an country barn?

A truly unique experience on our 9 acre farmstead located in the Iowa countryside.

A towel will be provided at the center. Bring your own toiletries and a padlock if you want to lock your possessions in a locker while showering.

The Greene County Community Center (GCCC) is located on the corner of Lincolnway (also called E53) and Hwy 4 (also called Elm Street) at 204 W. Harrison Jefferson IA 50129. It's just 6 blocks west of the Milwaukee Depot which is located at the trail-head of the Raccoon River Valley Trail. Click here for more info about GCCC.

Call us for more details so that we can arrange for your FREE complimentary shower.

Bike Trail Rider Pick-up and Drop-off:
Want to hit the Raccoon River Valley Trail with just your bike and an overnight bag?
Based on our availability, we can pick you and your bike up at a pre-arranged location in Jefferson and bring you to Farmhouse Life. At this time, we can transport only small parties per trip. We will transport your bike on a trailer equipped with bike fork mounts, which will require the removal of your bike's front wheel. We will take care in safely transporting you and your bike to our camp. However, if your bike requires extra special handling, you may need to make arrangements for another method of transport. When you are ready to hit the trail again, we can drop you off at the trail stops in Jefferson or Cooper.
Call us for more details and to make arrangements for your pick-up and drop-off.
