Neighborhood
Welcome to Parke County — the Covered Bridge Capital of the World. This corner of Indiana is a hidden gem, where covered bridges, sandstone gorges, working farms, and Amish communities create a one-of-a-kind setting that feels worlds away from everyday life. Turkey Run State Park is just 2 miles from the farm, with Shades State Park 7 miles, Lake Waveland 5 miles, Turkey Run Golf Course 4 miles and Cecil M Hardin Lake/Recreation Area 12 miles away.. Every October the county comes alive for the Covered Bridge Festival, one of the largest festivals in the Midwest. Rockville is 13 miles for groceries, and Amish markets nearby offer fresh local goods year-round.
Guest Access
The farmhouse and grounds are yours to enjoy! A couple of things to keep in mind: the basement is not accessible to guests, and please be mindful of the barn suite area out of respect for any guests staying there. The fields surrounding the property are active farmland — please stay out of the crops and keep a safe distance from any farm equipment in operation, as operators may not always see you.
