    "This is a quiet, lovely place in the country that is only 10 minutes from Bloomington, IL which has just about everything. It is a horse farm that could house just about any pet or hobby that you could want. Beautiful mature oak trees and winding creek in private pasture. Very difficult to find something like this close to town. Seeing is believing! "
