About this property
"The Sleepy Goat" Nature Lodge - Ultimate Farm Staycation Destination
Immerse yourself in a unique and peaceful farm get-a-way in our newly constructed Nature Lodge, "The Sleepy Goat".
Equipped with all modern conveniences in a tiny space that is both comfy & wistful.
Stay a night or two and just the solitude, or join us for regular chores, like goat milking, feeding alpacas & learn the skills of Cheese & Soap Making in our "farmhouse".
50 acres of rolling hills, forest trails, wetland habitats, pasture, gardens and orchards.
Come as strangers, leave as friends!
Welcome to Jireh Hills Family Homestead. Our family invites you to a unique overnight farm adventure on our 50 acre of beautiful rolling hills, alfalfa fields, natural wildlife and private trails. Learn more by visiting Jireh Hills Family Homestead to follow our family's journey to the "simple life" just 12 years ago.
"The Sleepy Goat" Nature Lodge is a newly constructed 136 sq ft fully-equipped tiny house with all the comforts and conveniences of home. Relax under the stars at night with your private campfire, cook outdoors with your own barbecue or just prepare a simple meal with your own tiny kitchen indoors. A covered porch provides you with a view of the farmer's fields and ponds to watch wildlife visitors who come regularly for an evening drink.
Visit year-round and see a working farm in every season. Your private accommodation includes your own 2-piece bathroom and tiny kitchen for all your comfort and conveniences. Enjoy a unique and memorable experience with family, loved ones or a romantic get-away.
You will find a single-cup coffee maker, toaster, kettle, microwave, oven, fridge, freezer, dishes, toilet, sink, hot water, A/C, outdoor grill, private fire pit and wood, and private picnic table.
Bedding available (includes clean sheets, warm blankets, , pillows, bath towels, and kitchen towels)

If you want to book your stay with more than 2 adults, there is an additional $25 per adult. Our second Nature Lodge (available in spring 2024) can be booked for larger groups. We also have a Glamping Trailer available in additional to several large tent set-ups that we provide. Please ask!
Your stay also includes an organized and personal one hour guided Farm Tour. Upon arrival, we will greet you and let you get settled before we make our way around the farm to highlight several areas of interest.
