Spend the day fishing the class 1 trout stream or kayak right into River Falls from the farm! This listing is for one side only of the Kinni Cottage - the Abide unit. To rent the entire cottage - both adjoining sides - visit entire cottage listing.

Come experience the farm life as you stay in our newly transformed riverside cottage, located on an 1800s farmstead along the Kinnickinnic River. Enjoy direct access to the river, fun and productive farm animals, and kayaks and fly-fishing gear available for rent!

The Cottage features two adjoining units which can be rented together or separately.

The Abide cottage is equipped with a king sized bed, plush linens, a kitchenette supplied with cooking essentials, beautiful riverfront views, reading nooks, a patio and more! The Abide cottage features a soaker tub/shower wet room. The cottage features its own private driveway and parking pad. Each unit can be accessed by using a keypad lock system located on the main entrance off individual patios. Your unique keycode will be sent to you ahead of check-in.

Our newest on-site amenity: An Amish built, Nordic Style, Wood-Burning Sauna! Guests of the Kinni Cottage now have access to the tradition of the Nordic Cycle. The practice of participating in the heat of a sauna followed by a cold plunge in the nearby Kinni River.

Guests have access to the operating farm, barn, trails, grounds, and gardens. As an operating farm with caretakers on-site, you have the opportunity to collect fresh eggs, pick seasonal produce and herbs, and choose from a variety of farm products from Green Pastures Family Farm and neighboring farms. (Farm product availability varies with season) Paddle the upper Kinnickinnic River right into River Falls from the farm. Or just find a place to unwind and watch the days go by. We hope that all enjoy this farm as a place to slow down, and to abide and dwell in this beautiful slice of Creation. We truly look forward to being your host!

The caretakers aka Alexa and Scott (Hi!), live on-site and are happy to have conversations, answer questions about farm animals, river adventures, etc. We believe in the art and value of genuine hospitality. But we also respect each guest's preferences. If you see us around the farm, please say hello!
Due to the nature of the farm we ask that you please leave your furry family members at home.
No loud or boisterous parties will be tolerated. Small family-friendly gatherings are allowed, if arranged ahead of time. Thank you!
