Named one of Minnesota's best Farm Stays by Explorer Minnesota 2024!

Schmidt Farm is a visitor friendly family farm with a passion of sharing our experiences with others, bringing you closer to our roots in agriculture.

Located in the beautiful hills of the Driftless Region in Southeast Minnesota, this property is available for you to enjoy a hands on farm experience or a secluded get-away. We welcome families, friend groups and special interest groups looking for a unique rural experience.

We share our farm with a variety of species including horses, donkeys, Icelandic sheep, rabbits, goats, chickens, alpaca & llama, cats & dogs. Each of these animals provide for the farm a specific function helping add to the sustainability of the farming system.

Schmidt Farm tends to be a destination location. Our farm borders the east side of Forestville State Park in an area abundant with wildlife and outdoor recreational opportunities. If you are interested in exploring the local communities, we can also point you in the right direction. Our farm is located just 6 miles from Preston and 12 miles from Lanesboro.

Our guests find we are much more than a farm. You can experience a connection with nature, the forest, the wildflowers, the wildlife, all in a safe and rewarding place. As hosts, we are here to guide you to find that experience and connection.

Guests enjoy dark skies at night, amazing for star gazing. An abundance of fireflies light up the summer evenings. Be sure to end the evening at the sunset bench that overlooks our valley and Forestville State Park. It's an amazing family photo op!

Our guests frequently mention how well stocked the kitchen is for their cooking needs, including a large propane Weber grill. You just need to provide the food, everything else is there. Leave your bottled water behind. Our fresh well water may just be the best tasting water you have encountered. Several of our local restaurants serve our Schmidt Farm produce while in season. We are happy to recommend these great places to eat!

Hosts Paul & Karen live on the home farm which borders the property, a 10 minute scenic walk along the woods and across an organic hay field or short drive from the guest house.

Schmidt Farm is a honored to be recognized as a Century Farm having been continuously farmed by the Schmidt family since 1901, when the first immigrant generation of our Schmidt family moved here.

Miles of well maintained private hiking trails are available for your exploration on your access to 60 acres of woodland and native prairie & wildflower areas of Schmidt Farm. You will also have direct hike-in access to Forestville State Park.

The property is an excellent space for deepening your connection with nature through meditation or Shinrin-Yoku (forest bathing). Small group retreats are encouraged.

Learn about organic vegetable growing with our large garlic and asparagus market gardens. Visit with Paul about our experience off-setting electrical usage through our solar panel arrays. Fossil hunting is a rewarding experience on the farm. Wildlife watching doesn't get any easier right out your window.

Karen is a fiber artist and loves to share this passion with guests. Our fiber flock includes Icelandic sheep, llama & alpaca. We do all of the fiber processing on farm from hand shearing our own animals to selling the final product.

Paul is a musician and you are often able to catch him playing at a local venue during your stay.

You choose your level of involvement with the hosts. Animal care always takes priority in our schedule. We will introduce you to the animals that share our farms and teach you about proper animal interaction and appropriate behavior expectations with them. You must provide proper supervision of children. Mistreatment of animals or property will not be tolerated.

We will provide guided tours of the home farm. No two stays at Schmidt Farm will look the same. Experience opportunities vary day to day.

We have a small farm store featuring products we produce here on the farm and also some additional necessities you may find a need for during your stay.

Some of our private trails may be shared with tent campers during the months of May, September and October.

Fall is a great time to enjoy the farm. Experience the beautiful fall colors, watch the harvest activity and sheep shearing, enjoy cool evenings by the campfire & explore the openness of the forest in the fall.

As we move into the fall season, the farm animals will start to move to our home farm as the pasture slows down for the year. All animals are moved to the home farm for winter shelter.

Although we can not allow visiting dogs on our property, we do have a local option for boarding your dog while you visit Schmidt Farm. Carla offers boarding about a mile from our farm. This allows you to take your dog with you on day trips off the farm if you like. www.laddk9.com

Easily accommodated 5 teens and 8 adults. 5 minutes to Lonsdale, and a short drive to Preston, Harmony, and fountain. Everyone enjoyed it." - "We had a group of 4 couples in town for biking. This house was perfect. There was plenty of space and we could have definitely added a 5th couple comfortably. The owners thought of everything and the house was well stocked with basics. There's even a huge water heater to ensure everyone has a hot shower! Communication was easy and we had no issues. We are already talking about returning next year.

✔ Lower-Unit: Jake, the homeowner, has turned the basement of this property into a secure and separate lower-unit, and lives there. You will not have access to that space or the backyard/patio during your stay. Jake may be out of town for work occasionally and will quietly come and go through his private door inside the garage. Jake is very friendly and may also access his desk in the corner of the garage on occasion.

✔ Lower-Unit Tenant: A long-term tenant is currently renting a room of the lower-unit from Jake and living with him. He has his own private parking space and accesses his apartment by the private backyard patio entrance through the back of the home. He does not have any contact with guests and does not have access to the garage like Jake does.

✔ All three doors leading to the Lower-Unit Apartment are labeled with “No Guest Access” signs and are locked. One is on the door in the garage, one on the door in the kitchen, and one on the basement patio door in the back.

- "Dan was a great host. He was respectful of our privacy, especially when the internet went down (on ISP's end) and the technician needed to come in. We had 20 people at one point in our stay and we had plenty of room in the house and the property. One bit of advice is to bring coolers for drinks if you have a large group since there is one full-sized fridge that fills up with food quickly. Dan was very generous, offering a hay ride and bringing over a couple dozen hamburger patties from cattle raised on his family farm. The whole family was impressed and we will definitely stay again next year."

Cozy clean house close to fishing, bike trails, restaurants, Amish tours, 100’s of miles of State of Minnesota bike trails. Get away from the big city and experience small town living. No stop lights in Preston.

- "Overall our stay was fantastic. Very personable hosts. The accuracy is off a bit. It’s a 2 bedroom, 1-12/ bath. Other than that no complaints. I’d recommend this place. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe" - "We stayed for a wedding at Serenity Hills and the shuttle dropped us off a block away. We were only there for a total of 6 hours, but was a convenient place to stay when the hotel filled up. The check in process was easy!" - "Property had ample space, good parking and a quiet neighborhood. It is a 2 bed, 1 1/2 bath home. No fireplace, no hot tub. Beds were comfortable. Food was left over in fridge and freezer from previous renters which was kind of odd to me but I guess would have been nice to have if you were ok eating opened containers."

- "Dan was super nice and accommodating. If you are looking for a 5 star hotel, look elsewhere. It you want a large, clean farmhouse, this place is for you. Being a working family farm, expect to see a tractor or two going in and out. We really enjoyed sitting on the wrap around porch with a book watching the cows. Lilly, the family's dog, was super friendly and may come to visit you. We will definitely go back! Thanks again Dan!" - "Not what I expected. Normally, I would say this is bad but in this case it was GREAT STAY. These people are not too good to be true. Authenticly welcoming folks that give you a nice home base to explore the area. Dan is a gem. He is available as much as you would like. You will have some interaction with Him and his family at this listing. If you do not want to see others at your stay it is not a good fit. He does have other properties which I have not stayed at in the area that offer more privacy Hospitality and Down Home Farm Living at the speed of relaxation."

The space
This is a quiet farm setting with wonderful natural beauty. Yes it is a rare and fun 1880 barn mow. Webster's dictionary defines a haymow as, "A mow especially of or for hay storage generally located in the upper aspect of a barn." That is what is clearly described in out listing. The mow has actual real hay on one side of the mow that we store there and then transport to the animals to eat outside in the winter. There is a kitchen, shower, hot and cold water and a flush toilet less than a football field away. There is water and electricity in the barn as well as beds, Wi- FI, table, lamp and chairs. There is a 2 wrung step ladder at one access and a walk in door that a wheelchair can get through at the other door. No birds live in the barn but an occasional sparrow can fly in. However, they never bite. There are no cows in the barn under the mow. However, since we are a working farm that actually produces food for people to eat and jobs for economic development, cattle and goats are on pastures not too far from the barn. Cows do still moo on occasion and bath less frequently that I would like. Nearly all barn mows have a hole in the floor that people use to toss the hay down below to take outside to the animals. We do cover the opening for safety when people stay. We also have an 1918 farmhouse listing on vrbo with less rustic accommodations that may better suite folks that are not interested in the fun and historic experience of staying in the mow of a barn built 15 years after the civil war. We offer the DESIRABLE DOZEN: 1. Staying in a beautiful 1918 Farm House 2. Staying in a cool 1880 Barn Mow 3. Canoeing 4. Fishing 5. Campfires along the creek 6. Hayrides over the Oak Savannah hills and pastures on the 400 acres 7. Biking on the asphalt regional bike trails that pass through the farm 8. Hunting 9. Grilling Angus Beef raising on our farm 10. There are 400 acres for your pets to enjoy 11. Touring around on the JD Gator side by side (Like a golf Cart) 12. Staying at the Farm Cabin I have been a faculty member for both the University of Minnesota and the University of Wisconsin teaching farm management. I am expanding our business into agri-tourism with my 6 kids and we want to do a good job providing farm and environmental education and fun experiences for people. Come and enjoy!
