My sister and I can't stop talking about how incredible our visit to the funny farm was! This was our first encounter with an urban farm and we absolutely loved it. We only stayed one night and wish we had planned more time here. The apartment was quaint, beautifully decorated, and comfortable. The price is unbeatable for the amenities (there's free parking, and it's just 3 blocks from the CTA that gets you to The Loop in a mere a 15 minutes!). The property was unique, with a full veggie garden, flower gardens, orchard, fire pit, picnic tables, honey bee hive, and pens for 2 hilarious pigs, several social chickens, and 2 lady goats with their 5 kids! We watched Nicky milk the goats and fed the kids, while learning all about the farm and how it came to be. Nicky is SO interesting and I'm glad we had time to learn about her love for Jack White and her husband's foray into smoked meats.

As a hostess, Nicky is a natural--she's very thoughtful and accommodating. We arrived early for check-in to make it to an afternoon Sox game and she was more than flexible, making our arrival easy and flawless. All of the personal touches in the apartment were delightful, and we loved our welcoming good-morning text. This was a very memorable experience and we'll definitely be visiting again!
