Wheelchair Friendly

We Are Wheelchair Friendly!

We’re happy to say that our overnight accommodations and event facilities along with the outside areas here at Ivy Jean’s Farmstead are more than just wheelchair accessible or ADA compliant, we are very Wheelchair Friendly!

We’ve learned from our wheelchair guests and families what elements they require and desire for an enjoyable, comfortable and interactive family vacation or event experience. They helped us understand not only the needs of the person in the chair but also the needs from the perspective of the main caregiver.

From overnight accommodations and showering facilities to getting around easily so as to be a part of indoor and outdoor activities, they offered their advice and experiences happily. They also told us of many negative experiences they’ve had in other places that claimed to be wheelchair accommodating but were sorely disappointing. We were so happy when they told us that our place is so much more than just ADA compliant; it’s actually enjoyable!

We appreciate and value their input very much. We feel that GOD has used them to help us so we can help others! Thank You GOD!

Our desire is to continue to make more outside areas of our property, such as hiking trails in the woods and paths to the creek along with walkways to the 1884 Whippoorwill Ridge Log Chapel in the woods accessible for all abilities. We want to offer all terrain wheelchairs for free to those who can use them and truly enjoy the experience safely and without assistance in the big outdoors. 

 We are working diligently towards this goal.  We want ALL to have the opportunity to connect with the Creator through His creations in the midst of His creations and not just from the sidelines looking in.
