Shawnee Wine Trail Farm Stay

Unwind at The Barn Bunkie, just 5 minutes from I-57, Blue Sky Vineyard, and Shawnee Bluffs Canopy Tours. Perfect for exploring the Shawnee Wine Trail and National Forest, enjoy mornings with our rooster, watch horses graze, and savor our freshly roasted coffee. Your ideal base for hiking and wine tasting awaits!

(Beware, the rooster, goats, and dogs will make sure you catch the sunrise, seriously, you won’t need an alarm clock! It’s an authentic farm stay!)

With everything you need (minimalist kitchen, dining, full bathroom, queen bed & fold out twin, peace, & quiet), and nothing you don’t (clutter, WiFi, television), the Barn Bunkie offers you a front seat to idyllic farm life nestled in the Shawnee National Forest.

Great location! Very close to several area wineries and hiking trails. The listing describes the place perfectly. Excellent communication with the host. I appreciated the amenities provided, especially the local coffee. Will not hesitate to book a stay here for a return trip.

I had so much fun this week hanging out with all the animals! The bunkie had everything I needed- including a small plug-in electric burner to cook on (i didnt know this beforehand so it’s good to note that you can cook here!) I used most of my time exploring the area and visiting nearby state parks. All around beautiful visit, i will be back!!

A very easy and delightful stay. Everything was very comfortable and clean. Loved getting to watch the horses graze, have the company of a sweet cat on the porch, and the occasional visit from one of the friendly dogs. Great spot to watch the sunset and then see moon light the field. The coffee was so good, too! Air conditioning worked perfectly when needed.

A quaint little Bunk House on a farm. Nice view near the horse pasture, horses, goats, dogs, and cats. Lovely small raised bed tomato garden next to the cabin. I would definitely stay again.

Bunkalicious!

It was absolutely perfect and I do not say that easily. I give l where appropriate but everything here was fantastic. The hosts were great. We were even invited to see their personalized fireworks display. The property is beautiful and we were surrounded by amazing animals: horses, goats, the friendliest dogs on earth and a spritely cat.We will be passing through again later in the week and we've booked another cabin. That says it all.
