WHAT TO SEE AND DO

​

Although we are located in the heart of farm country, you can find nearby local attractions such as; the Kankakee River State park, the historical town of Pontiac, and the unique Adventures Unlimited bookstore.
 

If you feel like staying put, here are a few things you might do at the Greenhouse Bed and Breakfast:

  • Be entertained by our chickens and guinea hens

  • Take a nap in the hammock.

  • Read a book.

  • Tour the gardens and orchard.

  • Stargaze.

  • Enjoy a sunrise or sunset.

  • Check out the koi and frogs, or just relax at the lily pond.

  • Listen to the night sounds.

  • Smell the flowers in one of Guia's many flower beds.

  • Enjoy a campfire at the fire pit.

  • Have a discussion with Mark and Guia on sustainability, gardening, permaculture, cooking, or beekeeping.

  • Fly a kite, or fly your own drone.

  • Watch a movie.

  • Enjoy the warmth of the woodstove (winter only).

  • Watch a farm tractor or combine operate in the adjacent fields

 

If you are here in late summer or early fall, you might be able to watch Mark extract honey.
