Here is a review from a recent Weber Farm guest…
If you’re looking for a quiet, serene, country experience that invites you to unplug and slow down, I highly recommend this place! We had a wonderful time on the Weber farm! Their home is comfortable (especially the beds!), there are lots of games and things to do outside, and you’re within minutes of great restaurants in Altenburg, Perryville, Jackson, and Cape. We enjoyed Saxony Hills Brewery, Mary Jane’s, and Sugar Chic over the weekend we were there. This home has lots of antiques and history, and the Webers do a great job with providing information about both.

Farm stay in Frohna, United States. Enjoy a 125+ year old country home with large yard and beautiful shade trees located on a 100-acre farm in the rolling hills of SE Missouri. The ho...

Country Roads... Take me Home
Country roads, lightning bugs, incredible sunsets, the smell of honeysuckle everywhere. All these things and more can be found at the Weber Farm. It was like stepping back in time to my childhood and I couldn't have been more pleased with the property, the owners and the whole experience. The Webers have thought of everything to make you feel welcome and comfortable. From the impeccably clean house full of history to the thoughtful dining/entertainment recommendations to the homemade banana bread, there is nothing I would change. We had a great stay, reconnecting with nature and family. My husband and daughter truly embraced country living for a few days and I couldn't be happier! For your next trip, take the road less traveled. 😊

We had the pleasure of hosting Randy (a retired dairy farmer) and his sons Nate & Ryan from Alaska at The Weber Farm Airbnb last week. Randy turned 70 in April and his sons told him they would take him ANYWHERE he wanted to go in the US as a birthday gift. Randy’s choice was to go see the American Tractor Museum in Perryville! How cool is that!

Thanks to Lori Heberlie from the Tractor Museum for lining up Kenny Buchheit and Arley to “talk tractors” with Randy. He loved it! Thanks also to Trish Erzfeld for all she does to promote Perry County attractions. If you haven’t been to the American Tractor Museum, you need to check it out! That is just one of many cool things to see and do in Perry County.

A couple from the St. Louis area wrote: "If you are looking for peace and quiet, amazing scenery, a glimpse back in time, a place to unwind, enjoy the outdoors, take in all that is real, lay underneath the night sky and view the stars, meet genuine people, experience the times when a hand shake was all that was needed to know your word was good, and to have hosts that go above and beyond in making sure all your needs are met this is the place for you."
