Hollyhock Cottage is set in the beautiful Home Farm yard with gardens, fishing ponds, cattle, horses, bison and the B&B next door. The decor reflects the cottage's history, first as the family chicken coop, then hired hand's house and Elizabeth's garden shed.  The renovated cottage offers all amenities, including A/C, a TV and VCR and games. The bedroom has a Queen bed and the living/sitting room has twin bunk beds and a Queen-sized futon.

The fully-equipped kitchen has a stove, apartment sized refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, charcoal grill, dishes and utensils and a small dining table.  A picnic table, lawn chairs and a bonfire ring are nearby, and the yard makes an ideal croquet court. An optional self-serve continental breakfast is available at the B&B next door. Pets are welcome, but must be kept off of the furniture. A dog kennel is available in a nearby shed.

Woodland Carriage House is located next to the River House, in the heart of the Whiterock Valley, and right on the main hiking trails of the Resort. The gorgeous River House yard, with a volleyball court and horseshoe court are right outside your door. A bonfire ring, fishing ponds, hiking trails and the Middle Raccoon River are easily accessible. The decor has a "lodge" feel, and features the physical manifestation of the on-line Fluxus Indian Museum (a New Wave art museum with a unique fictional account of the Fluxus Indian tribe).

The Carriage House is spacious, sleeping up to seven people, with a queen and twin bed in the bedroom and two queen beds in the living/sitting room. The unit is equipped with A/C, satellite TV, library, games, dining table and all linens. The fully equipped kitchen includes a functional and fun wood burning cook stove, an electric stove, full-sized refrigerator, coffee pot, microwave, charcoal grill and all dishes and utensils.

Both outdoor and a garage dog kennel are available. Dogs can be inside Woodland Carriage House, but only if you are with them and keep them off of the furniture.  There is plenty of room in the facility for your own dog kennel.

Oak Ridge is a large country private farmhouse located deep in the countryside on a ridge overlooking Whiterock Valley. Cows often graze a nearby pasture. Deer, coyote, and wild turkeys are frequently spotted from the house. Fishing ponds are within walking distance, and there is a basketball hoop on the garage. A bonfire ring in the yard makes a great evening campfire. Oak Ridge offers full amenities, including A/C, TV/VCR, iron and ironing board, basketball, croquet set, dart board, an extensive library and all linens. 

The house has 5 bedrooms, with an official sleeping capacity of 13.  The first floor bedroom contains a Queen and a Twin. Three bedrooms upstairs are usually configured with two Twin beds each, though with advance notice, linens are available to make these bedrooms into short king beds. The 4th upstairs bedroom contains two Queen beds and a seating area. There are two full bathrooms in the house (1st floor and 2nd floor) and also an upstairs hallway sink ideal for shaving and tooth-brushing. Many family reunion groups tuck in extra kids in the spacious living room and the ample bedrooms.

The kitchen is equipped to serve 30 people. It includes a full-sized refrigerator, stove, microwave, coffee pot, charcoal grill, dishes and utensils. Several locally made tables and outdoor picnic tables provide ample seating.
 
Two dog kennels are available for use in the garage. Dogs can be inside Oak Ridge, but only if you are with them and keep them off of the furniture. There is plenty of room in the facility for your own dog kennel.

The Main Campground, situated in the heart of Whiterock Valley, is directly across the road from the River House and is a great access point for the main hiking trail through Whiterock. The campground sits along a bend in the Raccoon River, amidst gorgeous sandstone outcroppings and our resident cliff swallow colony. This particular bluff, from which Whiterock Conservancy derives it's name, is the largest vertical outcrop of Cretaceous Dakota Sandstone in the Midwest. Several excellent fishing ponds and a nearby abandoned log cabin are also within easy hiking distance.

The campground is very accessible for campers, RVs and horse trailers, although no electric or water hookups are provided. It is a large, flat pasture with a sand base and covered with grass. Several trees provide shade at each of the six camping sites in this campground.  Each site is equipped with picnic table and fire ring. For the safety of the surrounding woodlands, please do not bring your own firewood. It is available on site for a minimal fee.

Several horse tie lines are provided, along with a manure pit and wheelbarrow. Several steel pens are provided (additional fee) and reservations for pens are required.  The campground area shares a dumpster, port-a-potties, and shower house. Potable water is available from the shower house. The very nearby River House yard offers an additional old fashioned, double-seater outhouse, a year-round hydrant for potable water, a volleyball court, a horseshoe court and a three-story barn in which to play on rainy days.

For real privacy on the edge of a gorgeous woodland, consider our Turkey Ridge Campsites.  On three separate ridgelines, each site is equipped with a picnic table, a fire ring and firewood.  The three campsites share a port-a-potty. The shower house, a water hydrant and a dumpster are available at the River House/Main Campground complex, about 1 mile away. The campsites lie about 1/2 mile off the nearest gravel road, on a sandy flat trail, and are accessible by vehicles.
