About this property

Apartment at Badass Holler: Unwind on a working farm

Unwind and enjoy the peace of staying on a working farm. This apartment is a newly renovated workshop at the end of our garage filled with the comfort of home and finished with vintage details from the original owners. You may visit with the farm's miniature livestock: goats and donkeys or wade in the creek or sit outside and look at the stars and listen to the night time noises.

We offer indoor parking for motorcycles. We also offer a 10% military/first responder discount.

This little home away from home boasts two bedrooms (one upstairs and one downstairs ) as well as a large sitting area in open concept* and bathroom with tub/shower.

For extra sleeping we have 2 twin rollaways and queen inflatable mattress. A dining table along with a mini-fridge/freezer, toaster oven, microwave, gas BBQ grill will allow you to prepare your own meals or heat up take-out as you wish. (**Please note that there is not a kitchen nor a kitchen sink.) A small selection of board games and reading materials are available. In addition, outdoor seating and a hand-made brick fire pit will help you enjoy the beautiful sunsets.

*Please note that open concept in this apartment means that there are no bedroom doors and that the downstairs bedroom is open to the main living area. The bathroom does have a door. There is only a banister on one side of the stairs; the other side is open to the downstairs for about the bottom half of the staircase. Parents of young children or guests who have mobility issues should make a reservation with this in mind.

All of the rental is reserved for guests, as well as most of the yard. The owners and family occupy two homes on the property, so there are parts of the yard that are shared. Guests are welcome to take a walk to the pasture to see the livestock, but for safety reasons, are asked not to cross fences or gates without one of the owners. You are free to visit the livestock at the fence.

We are happy to interact with guests as much or as little as you prefer and will ensure your privacy. We'd love to give you a hands-on experience on this working farm and want your stay to be a fun adventure. We do want you to know, though that while they are not invasive, you might hear noises from coyotes at night or talking goats and donkeys.

The Holler is set in an ideal location 3 miles from Palmyra, MO, 10 from Hannibal's historic Mark Twain district, and 15 from Quincy, IL. Mark Twain Lake and Wakonda State Park are close by, as is Hannibal Regional Hospital.

My grandfather bought this farm in 1943, and I’m blessed to live here. We’ve added a second home, sold part of the land to a fantastic family and began raising miniature livestock. We love sharing the farm!

Why they chose this property

Being in the country brings peace!

What makes this property unique

We spend time with our livestock socializing them to be family friendly. Not all enjoy being touched, but all are definitely curious!!
