It may be hot outside, but there’s plenty of room at The Back Field to cool off the old-fashioned way—bare feet, sprinklers and plenty of laughter. 💦☀️

Around here, children have room to play, grown-ups have room to slow down, and some of the sweetest memories are made in the simplest moments.

If your family could use a peaceful little getaway before summer slips away, we’d love to welcome you to The Back Field. 🌿

🌿 What’s in the Works at The Back Field 🌿

Sometimes God gives you a vision long before He reveals the finished picture.

When we look across this property, we don’t just see dirt being moved or trees being cleared—we see God’s faithfulness unfolding one step at a time. Every path, every cabin site, every gathering place is being prayerfully prepared to become a place where families can rest, couples can reconnect, friends can gather, and hearts can draw closer to the Lord.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
— Jeremiah 29:11

Here’s a glimpse of what we’re working toward:
🏡 Private cabins tucked into nature
⛪ A hillside wedding chapel
🥾 Emmaus Road walking trail
💦 Water access with kayaks
🛁 Bath house & hot tub
🏕️ Tent sites & RV spots
🤍 More peaceful places to gather, worship, rest, and renew

None of this would be possible without God’s provision and the incredible people He has placed in our lives. Thank you to everyone who has prayed for us, encouraged us, shared our posts, stayed with us, and believed in this dream. Your support means more than you’ll ever know.

This is so much bigger than building a destination. Our prayer is that The Back Field becomes a place where weary hearts find peace, families make lasting memories, marriages are strengthened, and lives are reminded of God’s goodness.

“Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
— Matthew 11:28

The best is still ahead, and we can’t wait to welcome you to experience what God is building here.

We still have select dates available this summer. Come experience peaceful mornings, cozy accommodations, complimentary breakfast, afternoon snacks, and the beauty of Lake Okhissa just minutes away.

🇺🇸 Freedom. Fellowship. Front Porch Peace. 🇺🇸

There’s something special about a summer evening in the country… the American flag gently waving beneath a bright moon, the glow of string lights, a hearty home-cooked breakfast waiting for morning, and a place where life slows down just enough to enjoy the simple blessings.

This holiday weekend, we’re especially thankful for the guests staying with us—hardworking electric linemen who are spending Independence Day away from their families to help keep the lights on for others. We hope The Back Field offers them a little rest, a hot breakfast, and a peaceful place to recharge before another long day. Thank you to all who serve our communities, often behind the scenes.

At The Back Field, we believe some of life’s sweetest memories are made around a fire pit, over a shared meal, and in the quiet moments that remind us of God’s many blessings.

If you’ve been thinking about slipping away for a peaceful weekend, we’d love to welcome you. Come enjoy quiet mornings, country evenings, home-cooked breakfasts, and the beauty of God’s creation.

Book your stay through Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, or send us a message for direct availability.

Happy Father’s Day from The Back Field

Today we celebrate the fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, and father figures who lead with strength, wisdom, and love.

Thank you for the early mornings, the hard work, the steady hands, the prayers spoken over your families, and the sacrifices made behind the scenes. Your impact reaches farther than you know.

As we enjoy the beauty of God’s creation here at The Back Field, we’re reminded of the blessing of faithful men who reflect our Heavenly Father’s love through their care and devotion.

We pray today is filled with rest, laughter, good memories, and time spent with those you love most.

“The righteous man walks in his integrity; his children are blessed after him.” — Proverbs 20:7

Happy Father’s Day from all of us at The Back Field. ❤️

Not every afternoon calls for something sweet.

Here at The Back Field, we like to listen to what our guests enjoy, and sometimes that means trading cookies and cakes for something a little more savory. This afternoon’s treat is a warm, creamy jalapeño chicken dip topped with crispy bacon, fresh jalapeños, and just enough kick to keep things interesting.

Paired with a cold, refreshing drink and a quiet spot under the trees, it’s the perfect way to slow down and enjoy the simple blessings of the day.

Whether your taste leans sweet or savory, we love making sure there’s a little something waiting to make you feel at home.

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28

That’s the heart behind everything we do at The Back Field. 💚🍃☕️
