About this space

This 160 acre farm used to be a sod farm, and then a Christmas tree farm. Camping provided is in the remnants of the uncut Christmas tree forest which is about 6 acres. Small little get away from Rochester. Airport traffic, but it is enjoyable. 10 minutes to downtown Rochester. PLEASE KEEP DOGS OFF OF THE BEDS IN THE CABIN.

I loved tent camping at the edge! I honestly was afraid the airport/highway noise was going to be bad but it was not! We slept through the night. Beautiful clear night sky!

Cute little cabin on the edge of Rochester. Only 1.5 hours from the Twin Cities so it’s a great little weekend trip. The wood stove kept us cozy and warm at night. The host was really accommodating...
