Peace on the Prairie Too - Tiny House, Pets Allowed, No cleaning fee.

Peace on the Prairie Too is a 570 square foot two-story Tiny House offering the peace, quiet, and tranquility that you're searching for for a relaxing time away. Whether it’s a business trip, romantic time together with your significant other, a family vacation, a girl's time away, a secluded spot to work on your music, writing, art, star gazing, or a reconnection with nature, you'll find your inspiration and renewal in this natural rural setting away from the sounds of the city.

This stand-alone house is located on a 24-acre prairie restoration with forest on two sides and agricultural fields on the other two sides. Like watching nature, star gazing, birding, butterflies, fireflies, and deer? Like peace and quiet? This is an exceptional location for those looking to get away for a while — even if just for a night. Except for the occasional car on the country road, this location offers a respite from the sounds and smells of the city and is a very good area for nature watching. There are no less than 100 bird species during the year, many dragonfly and butterfly species, several ponds, deer, rabbits, mink, coyotes, fox, at least five species of fireflies, and much more in this wildlife sanctuary. We maintain many trails for leisurely walks through the prairie and a timber area allowing you to relax and explore the native grasses, flowers, trees, wildlife and the opportunity to reconnect with nature.

The ground level floor consists of a living/dining area, full kitchen, bathroom with a full-size shower, washer and dryer, automatic dishwasher, and a queen size futon. All cooking utensils, glasses, dishes, silverware, etc., are provided. A charcoal grill is also provided for outdoor grilling. Charcoal is available for purchase or you can bring your own.

The full-size second floor is the primary area for sleeping with a king size bed and a second queen size futon. This floor also has an eclectic reading library, a working table for your laptop or tablet and a small display shelf with honey produced on the property and coffee mugs for sale. The second floor also has walk out access to the covered deck overlooking 16 acres of native prairie, timber and two ponds.

This is a two-story building that is NOT HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE. If you need a handicap accessible place to stay, try our other rental Peace on the Prairie, located on the same property

Great weekend getaway

I had such a great stay here with my dogs. The place had everything we needed and then some. The property is beautiful and I was lucky the weather cooperated so we could walk through the trails and I could take some pictures of the many birds in the area. I will definitely be back. Thank you!

Absolute Peace

I loved this place and will be back as soon as I can. It is out in the middle of nowhere, perhaps a drawback for some but absolutely a dream for me. The property was clean and well equipped, the hosts were a joy, and it was so good to hear nothing but nature, watch the birds and a few deer, and simply be. This will be my "go to" recharge place in the state of Illinois.

The name says it all

Though bigger than my home in Key West, the name Peace on the Prairie Too - Tiny House describes it perfectly. Just a little off the beaten path with no homes too nearby, it was exactly what I had hoped for. The communication from the hosts was spot on, and the chocolate chip cookies were a real treat! Next time I visit family in the area, I will return for a longer stay.

Great place to get away and relax

Me and my girlfriend needed a weekend away from home but decided to bring our dogs with us! This property is very clean, secluded, and has many walking paths attached to it. The only thing is, bring tick repellent and make sure any pets have flea and tick prevention. Ticks are prevalent but not a trip ruiner. The stars are bright, the birds are prevalent, and the pollinators are pollinating. Great getaway spot for any nature lover or pet owner. Kevin was very kind and very helpful throughout the weekend.

Perfection!

The house was amazing, and the property was gorgeous! The owner thought of everything that we may need, it was a well though out floor plan, clean, faced away from the road for privacy, we watched the sun rise and sun set on the top balcony every day that we stayed, and it was peaceful! He welcomes dogs, which we communicated that we had 3 larger breeds, and even asked us as we departed if they enjoyed their stay to. That was sweet! Hes a friendly guy, and the best part was that his wife made homemade cookies for us on our arrival! Delicious! One thing I would highly suggest that the owner does as well is tick medicine for animals, and spray for yourself! Ticks were bad for sure but we were prepared for it thank god.

Exactly what we needed. Peaceful, secluded, and relaxing! The trails are an added bonus. The respect for nature, pets, and people spoke to us, which are evident in the aesthetic of the property. We come to Jacksonville often and will definitely be back!

Lovely piece of peace!

Kid friendly - pet friendly - lovely view of stars (when no clouds). Comfortable home! Stairs are kind of steep if you have someone with mobility issues but they have their other 1 story property too. I walked past it during a hike and it also looks lovely. Kevin was so easy to communicate with. I will be back.

Cool European, hippie vibes

We heard 36 different birds in 10 minutes during breakfast. The hosts’ respect of nature and all people oozes from all the little extras. The humans, dogs, and birds echo that sentiment.

Nice easy getaway

We enjoyed our stay; that is once the grass was cut. We contacted owner and they took care of it promptly but our first nights stay we could not walk the trails and property due to grass being overgrown; our second night was great. We enjoyed bird watching here and walking the trails at nearby Jacksonville Lake as well.
