A quaint Turn-of-the-Century farmhouse is the Bed and Breakfast
Message From The Hosts
Hello, my name is Armando, and me and DaPuppies are the owners of TierraLinda. TierraLinda means Beautiful Earth, and this is what we have here. If you like to look at birds and sit next to a fire, if you like the look of blooming grasses and enjoy walking barefoot, if you like a night walk under moon light, then you came to the right place. When you spend some time in TierraLinda, very soon you forget where you came from. You came to a peaceful, simple and serene place.
This year of 2008 we are doing something that we have never done before!.....
Lucky flower, the home of Little Bug
So far we have not used the lawnmower and the place is quite overgrown with everything from flowers that we did not know we had to little bugs that did not die of either decapitation or asphyxiation when the lawnmower went over
Little bug looking at you!
Property Description
Property Summary:
Located five miles South of Galena, peaceful
TierraLinda is nestled within the beautiful rolling hills of Jo Daviess County.
After an extensive renovation, today the
century
old farm house has
two guestrooms with private baths.
TierraLinda has a sandy beach, a magic forest and a beautiful pond with Tortuga Island and the waterfalls. We do not watch Tele-Vision in TierraLinda, we watch Tierra-Vision. We get the maximum of what Nature has to offer: birds, frogs, coyotes, butterflies, dragonflies, deer, rabbits, toads, fish, moles, wild turkeys, morels, dancing grasses, wild flowers, bedding grasses, thunderstorms, colorful weeds, and not so colorful ones, etc., etc. We usually sit by a bonfire to watch the stars, the moon and the meteors, we listen to frog and bird songs and once a year, just around Independence day, we are invaded and surrounded by the surreal Luminaires (called fire-flies by the unromantic). TierraLinda is Nature with an Accent.
TierraLinda was created on October 27, 1996 on 11 acres of an old Midwestern farm. The farmhouse was built around 1870's and the interior was fully renovated in 1997. On the second floor of the farmhouse there are two lovely guestrooms with private baths.
TierraLinda is located on the beautiful Rocky Hill Road about five miles South of Galena. TierraLinda is not very visible from the road since we do little cosmetic surgery to the looks of Nature. In 2004 we decided to mow the minimum to see what happened ...So far the grasses are plenty and tall, lots of birds and wildlife, we can hardly see the road in front of us and once in TierraLinda you do not see any neighbors! The most of natural beauty and peacefulness is what you will get from us. TierraLinda does not look like a groomed Country Club or a golf course, our neighbors do.
What's New?
Morels are coming, morels came and hurry up before the Morels are gone!
