Our little chunk of paradise is about 8 acres. It is a diverse piece of land allowing for micro environments. A hilltop with an orchard a few terraced garden beds, about an acre or so of wooded area with a waterway down below, and another 1.5 acre of garden, intermixed with pasture, out buildings and our home. The land is surrounded by 120 acres of adjacent farmland. Across our street is wetlands and woods. Adjacent to the 120 acres of farmland is another 80 acres of public hunting land. We are blessed to live so close to nature without a view of a neighbors house. Stars, crickets, frogs, woodcocks in spring, hummingbirds and sandhill cranes in summer, and more all in abundance at our Willoway Farm. We bought our home in 2006. Before then it was in the same family that settled there in 1840s-1850s. At one time there was a log cabin, then they built our cream city brick farmhouse in 1893. The farm in the 1980s and before was a dairy farm. When we bought it half of where you see the garden was either grass or part of the conventional farm adjacent to our property. Our farm logo is taken from the builder of the barn-many pioneer barn builders often signed their barn work with a symbol. We liked the symbol and kept it to use as our own yet honor the builder of our barn. We have great appreciation for those that built with such beautiful large trees and all by hand. The Produce Wash Building is a timber frame built by Dan our farm owner and farm doer. The timber frame was made from reclaimed timbers and reclaimed barn siding, the shingles were made from scratch by Dan also. Learn more about this land: Willoway Farm is a small scale organic vegetable &and flower farm established in 2007, located 35 minutes north of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It's situated upon a glacial hill over looking a Milwaukee river flowage to the south and the kettle moraine state forest to the northwest. Our 8 acre land with cut flower & heirloom vegetable garden is surrounded by over 200 acres of uninhabited land, ( Farmland & state wild land). We are just 5 minutes from hiking trails into the state forest, which is beautiful all times of the year! A 55 acre secluded lake with public access is only 1.5 miles from Willoway - we hear the fishing is good. New now is across the street is a 283 acre land trust- Biehl Nature Preserve on Lake Twelve. The roads near the farm traverse through mixed forest and farm land with only slight traffic offering exceptional bicycling! The camp space is primitive and private yet offers gentle vistas upon the surrounding landscape with often both amazing sunrises and sunsets - situated upon the high point of the farm nestled in a young apple orchard. We have a spacious outhouse on site. We feel so fortunate live and farm where we do & love offering the natural beauty it offers to others. Our garden is lush with flowers, herbs and vegetables great for observing our plethora of pollinators. There are so many places to visit within 10 miles of our Campsite. A favorite is Riveredge Nature Center only 9.6 miles offering 3 miles of trails including 1 mile along Milwaukee River. Riveredge Nature Center has vast landscapes with so many lovely native wild flowers.

Wonderful trip. Beautiful, easy to back into site. Nice sized fire pit, available kayaks and boats. Right on the water, next to a nice hiking trail. Hosts were very friendly and a very friendly well behaved dog to boot. Very relaxing, better than what we could have hoped for.

The property is absolutely amazing! Unfortunately we were unable to camp... our RV broke down less than a mile away. We did spe.d some time relaxing at the property waiting on the RV but didn't get to sleep there. Very nice hosts offered a ride late at night after RV got towed.

Rick's lot is beautiful. It's set right on the pond and it feels very private. Very easy to get into (although I recommend you show up when it's light out - don't be like us). This is definitely a place we'd come to again!

We loved camping at Rick's place. He was very friendly and helpful. He periodically checked in which was nice. We enjoyed kayaking and fishing on the mill pond. Access for kayaks right by site. Short walk past the dam is the entrance to the forest which has awesome trails. We will definetely camp here again. Al and Becca

My wife and I loved our trip to Glenbeulah and this spot by the Mill Pond. The hosts of the place are very friendly people. I only wish there were some inlet for our portable tank to dump grey water, but a few miles away is a campground where the tanks can be emptied. We spent 3 nights there, riding our bikes around, fishing, kayaking, and spending time on the pond in a pedal boat, evenings by the fire pit. Kayaks and pedal boats are on site. Great memories:)

We had the most peaceful weekend at this beautiful campsite under a canopy of trees, beside a quiet pond. The setting was serene and relaxing—exactly what we needed to unwind. Rick and Lynn were incredibly kind and welcoming hosts, and the sweetest, fluffiest camp dog you'll ever meet, Duffy, was an unexpected bonus. We’ll definitely be back!

We enjoyed our stay at the waterfront campsite near Road America. We fished, made use of the paddle boat, and did a short hike in the Kettle. Rick was a great host answering questions, making suggestions, and even helped try to fix our furnace.
