Heltonville House | Barndominiums at Donkeytown - Indiana's Premier Multi-generational Destination

8 Bedroom House in Heltonville

Escape away from normal life to farm country where you have your own peaceful space and stay in newly renovated rustic barndominiums on an active 40 acre farm of Mediterranean Miniature Donkeys! Designed with large family gatherings in mind, you will have two of your own barn buildings with 7 bedrooms, 14 beds, and 6 bathrooms. You will also have your own 900 sq ft dining room in The Stable, known as Donkey Diner, to congregate with family and friends, where your group can cook their meals and enjoy camaraderie.
This location includes over 6,000 sq ft in two buildings so your family will have plenty of room to spread out. The first building, Rustic Roost, consists of 4 large king bedrooms, 3 baths, a family room with 2 sets of bunk beds and a pull out sofa. In the open concept kitchen and living room area, you will enjoy the garage door opening up to an outdoor bar overlooking the orchard with a large sectional sofa and big screen smart TV.
Building two, The Stable, is a 3 bedroom, 3 full bath barndominium with two king beds, a queen bed, full and a set of bunk beds. Also a sectional sofa in the Donkey Diner with smart tv.
In between the barndominiums you will have a large blacktop area for outdoor activities and a basketball goal and also offers an activity area where kids can play. Staying at Donkeytown also gives you a beautiful 40 acres to explore with hiking, picnics, and fishing in our two fully stocked ponds. Bring your fishing poles or just enjoy sitting on the pier while drinking a cup of coffee or watching the sunset.
We are proud to be a breeder of Mediterranean Miniature Donkeys touted as the "most lovable animals on the planet." You can have as much or as little interaction with them as you desire. Feel free to hang out in barns and pastures with them and each day we close the gates and let a few free range on the farm. They'll be glad to hang out with you, are very social and want lots of hugs and kisses. You'll be able to say you "kissed ass at Donkeytown" when you leave. In addition, we have four free range goats, Willie, Waylon, Johnny, and June, plus two lambs, Pancho and Lefty, that will greet you daily!
Come welcome a stress-free farmcation where you'll experience therapeutic donkeys and lots of love.
We can now accommodate conferences for up to 40 people with meeting space when you add the Farmhouse, a 7 bedroom and 4.5 bath in the original 1884 farmhouse (see listing #2710662).

Summary: The team said it was the best preseason camp they have experienced. They loved being able to interact with the animals. The set-up and environment worked out great for the purpose of our trip.
