The hot tub is open daily from 8am to 10pm, with extended hours available by request. After booking, we’ll send you a link to reserve your private soak time under the stars.
During your stay, swing by our small on-site farm store. It’s stocked with Oostema Wagyu beef, sausage, and fresh eggs, raised and packaged right here on the farm, plus other local favorites.
What to Bring
The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes, and cooking essentials, so you don’t need to bring anything but your favorite ingredients. Forgot something? Just ask, we’re nearby and happy to help.

We welcome one well-behaved dog under 50 lbs with prior approval and a pet fee. Dogs must be kept leashed, quiet, off the furniture, and supervised at all times. Please add your pet to the reservation to view the fee and confirm approval.

The Farmstead Experience
Oostema Farmstead is a real, working Wagyu farm. You will meet the Wagyu cattle, guests enjoying their own quiet corner, or hear the occasional hum of farm life, but things here stay peaceful and low-key.
We host other guests too, but it never feels crowded. There’s plenty of space to explore, or just stay tucked into your little haven.
Stay Longer, Unwind Deeper
The longer you stay, the more you’ll enjoy. Guests who book 3 nights or more receive added value, more time to soak, more meals made with Wagyu, more quiet mornings with nothing to do.
Discounts are applied automatically when you enter your dates.
