HELLO & WELCOME! We love this space, and are proud that you've trusted us with your sleep, time, and adventure. We help you start your day with farm fresh eggs and coffee. Our hope is that you won't be disappointed. The Cottage at Dragonfly Meadows is nestled quietly behind our primary residence. Your privacy is assured. We are on site and available should you require any assist or advice throughout your stay- and then after as well!
If you have questions, needs or concerns, please message me through the Vrbo app. You are always welcome to knock on the front or back door as well. I would so appreciate a little note telling me what I could have done to make your stay in our ‘little space’ more pleasant. Thank you!
First things first… Enjoy yourself and please let us know if we can assist you in any way!
The Cottage at Dragonfly Meadows is nestled quietly behind our primary residence. It is a quaint 700 sq ft studio apartment with all of the feels and amenities of home. The Cottage is located on a working farm with donkeys, horses, Highland cattle, chickens and sweet guardian livestock dogs. If you love the quiet farm setting, this is the place for you. We are also located in proximity to BNSF train lines. If you love trains, this could be your perfect oasis.
Dragonfly Meadows was established in August of 2023. We are a working family farm complete with a growing orchard (plums and apples currently), garden, egg producing chickens, Highland cows, donkeys and a horse. We are happy to share it all with you.
Our animals and livestock are used to being around people. That being said, they are still animals… Cows have horns and will use them to stop unwanted petting (they get grumpy too some days). The horse and the donkeys will also nip if there is unwanted touching or attention. If you would like to walk around and see the animals, you are welcome to. However, it is at your own risk if you try to touch, pet or come in contact with the animals. PLEASE stay outside of the fenced areas.
