Rich history in this property. The land was purchased from the railroad in 1865 through 1869. Also purchased land from neighboring farms. It was establishes as a farm under the Roberts name in 1872. Our family has seen six generations born and raised on this land in the past 150 years. American Indian tribes use the land for their burial ground ceremonies. Elders from a Wisconsin tribe came to the farm through the 1960s to trek the land and perform a ceremony to honor their ancestors. Many arrow heads were found in the fields of the land. The American Indians told stories of how the little spring fed creek running through our land was a small river flowing towards the Apple River which flows into the Mississippi River. The Apple river runs northwest of the farm. In 2001, the land hosted a small budget film crew for the scenes and setting of the 2002 film “Stray dogs” with Genevieve Turner. Learn more about this land: Hiking and camping under the stars surrounded by trees with the sounds of nature. Spotting variety of wildlife. Watching the most spectacular sunrises, sunsets, and the moon rising over the hills. Classified as “D” for dry camping or boondocking. Upgrades will be made available with interest.

Loved camping & watching the Perseid metoer shower in such a secluded & restful space. Joan & Jean were so helpful and great to communicate with.

We had a big group and rented both sites, Jean was very nice and did a tour of some of the animals on the property. The sites were by the road but there were rarely cars. Plenty of shade during the day, and the stars were beautiful!

RWH Farm
We had a great time staying at RWH Farm Woods. J & J are super friendly and accommodating and have a beautiful piece of land. A very quiet secluded space with a beautiful old oak tree made this the perfect spot for base camping while riding bikes all over the IL driftless. Highly recommended and already planning on a return trip in the future!
