Fall asleep under the stars surrounded by nature on a sunflower farm with a beautiful fieldstone barn and natural springs in your private safari-style tent. Listen to the birds chirp or maybe catch a glimpse of a deer from your deck or in the hammock. Relax around the campfire or in the hot tub after touring the town and soaking in the breathtaking sunset views.
