Walnut Grove is a 280-acre retreat. We make every effort to meticulously maintain the dwellings, pavilions, fields, gravel roads, hiking trails, ponds, patios and lushly landscaped areas, all for enjoyment of our guests. As well, we are a working farm with crops and laying hens. This requires that staffing is typically on the property at all times to ensure our guests have the highest quality experience in a beautiful natural setting. We make every effort to have our property management greet your party to welcome you, orient you to the property, and show you how to use the audio and other systems!
