Mulberry Cottage Farm-Stay Turn off your phone and unwind on the porch with a beverage while watching birds and distant grazing cattle. Mulberry cottage has a pond view and is situated on a 200 acre working cattle ranch divided by a wading creek and hiking trails. You are shaded by Mulberry and Osage Orange trees, host to frequent birdlife. We love the solitude and rest here on the farm, while still enjoying a short drive to town. Fresh sourdough bread with Mulberry preserves, and farm fresh eggs are provided for breakfast. We are close to the 2024 Ragbrai Cycling route so consider joining us as you cycle across the state of Iowa https://ragbrai.com/. Or, it’s the perfect location if you’re at the balloon festival or the famous Iowa Speedway. Roadways and entrances on the farm are gravel or dirt. Vehicles will be on unpaved surfaces.
