Event - IRR's RIVERS ROCK!
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 setup a campsite.  We provide the gear and set it all up for you!

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

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. 

Food Delivery Service Fee:
No time to pack and transport your cookout food? 
Call one of the local stores we've made arrangements with by Thursday (the week of your stay).  Order and pay the store for your food with a credit card.  We'll pick it up for you.  Call us for the names of the stores and specific instructions to make arrangements for this special food delivery service set-up for guests of Farmhouse Life.
