Peaceful Farm Retreat on 117 Acres | Private Apartment, Hot Tub, Wide-Open Skies

If you’re tired of busy, this place will feel different.

This is a private one-bedroom apartment on our 117-acre working Wagyu farm just outside Lynden. It’s quiet. It’s clean. It’s simple in the best way.

You pull in and notice the space right away. Open pasture. Fresh air. No traffic noise. No shared hallways.
Inside, you’ve got a comfortable king bed, a full bathroom, and a small kitchenette so you can make coffee or a light meal without having to head back out. It’s set up for ease, not fancy, not fussy, just well cared for.

You’ve got your own entrance and a private patio overlooking farmland. In the evenings, you can book time in the hot tub. It’s quiet out there. No resort crowds. No noise drifting in. Most guests tell us they sleep better here. That’s usually what they came for.

This is a real working farm. You’ll see cattle in the pasture. You might pass another guest staying elsewhere on the property. Glen and I live upstairs, so we’re nearby if you need something, but your space is your own. If you’re looking for quiet and a reset, it fits.
