About
County property, just on the edge of Portland Indiana. Property boasts a beautiful 1950's brick home with wrap around porch, and 2 restored historic red barns on about 4 acres. No immediate neighbors - property is surrounded by farm fields on 3 sides. Lots of open, grassy space at the back of the lot to walk & play with your dog. Easy access off of Indiana-67, with a circle drive on the property to make it easy to get in & out of. Highway location makes for corresponding road noise, but otherwise the the location is peaceful.
One 30 amp electric plug available. A donation you feel is appropriate based on your usage level of water & power is requested. If you want to park without anything from me, always no charge. When I'm home I can fill your water tanks with softened water from the house (but not stay connected), or provide you with a hook up to a connection to potable well water. There is one walnut tree along the driveway you will need to drive under. I try to keep it trimmed up to get my class C through without branches hitting, but if your rig is abnormally tall you may need to drive around the tree through the grass, which can be done as long as the ground is dry. If you are concerned, give me a heads up & I'll double check the trimming (really only a spring growth issue) and let you know the ground condition.
There is plenty of room to park 2 RVs plus cars, if needed. (Previous home owners both drove school buses & both were parked here overnight daily.) There is one 30 AMP plug available by the barns, and a couple of 15 AMP plug-ins.
There is WiFi in the house, it may not be strong where you'll be parked, but it is available on the property.
Walmart is a mile away to stock up. Laundry mat is right up the road too.
Suggested Local Attractions: On weekends, visit my winery: Tipsy Glass Winery in Bryant, IN! 15 mins to the north of Portland.
Microbrew in Portland: Good-Rich Brewery
Lots of events throughout the year at the Jay County Fairgrounds:Vintage Motorbike Show, Jay County Fair, Shutterbug Conference, World's Largest Gas Tractor & Engine Show, Vintage Military Vehicle Show, & Hunting/Fishing Expo.
There are many antique stores in the area, & a growing number of Women's boutique stores in Portland and nearby Ft Recovery, OH.
Kids will enjoy the Portland City Waterpark in the summer.
New for 2025-I have laying hens and should have fresh eggs available mid-late in March. The roosters may give you an early morning wake up call!
