About this property

The Honey Haven

Nestled in a quiet valley setting, you will find a welcoming little haven in a corner of our honey house. The West Fork of the Kickapoo River is just across the road, perfect for those who love to fish. Wildlife is all around, and you may see our friendly dog Boone in the yard. With beekeeping as our occupation, you will find small touches of that inside the guest house. Two bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, and a kitchen are located upstairs, with a sitting room area on the ground level.
Guest access:
Our guesthouse is a part of our bigger honey facility. The Honey Haven is separated from it with its own private entrance and space. There is a creek on the property, so please remember to watch your small children.

The place is exceptionally clean and well supplied. There was even an electric tea kettle that my wife loved. The hosts were very accommodating. They started a fire in the firepit for us. We had a lovely time.

Business Trip

This is a great place to stay.Quiet and remote. If you’re staying here in the winter you will appreciate the heated floor in the main room. We were greeted by their dog Boone on arrival, who showed remarkable hospitality! Overall we felt like we were at home.

Lovely Home Away From Home

We enjoyed our stay in such a beautiful place. The location is "off the beaten path" so it was quiet and peaceful. The bedrooms, bathrooms, living area and kitchen were comfortable and nicely decorated. We enjoyed the special treat of Peaceful Valley honey - thank you!
