About Cambre House and Farm

Down an Illinois country road between Nauvoo and Niota in Hancock County, through pineapple topped brick gate posts, and at the end of a winding lane, is the Cambre House and Farm. Built in 1867 on a bluff 150 feet above the Mississippi River, the salt box style house, sitting on thirty acres, was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. Relly and Lois Fowler purchased the farm from the Cambre family in 1979, and their granddaughter Rebecca Williamson purchased it from their estate in 2016. Large outdoor spaces centered around the historic home. There are two large lawns both in front of and behind the three bedroom home. Rental includes the entire home and grounds for the duration of the event. Private and peaceful area surrounded by 20 acres of wooded property. Quaint outbuildings make for wonderful country farm pictures. Our barn is small with space for 20 people for an intimate experience. Three bedroom two bath home is perfect for getting ready for the event, as well as use for overnight accommodations. Two additional overnight rentals can be added to the package to make for a wonderful weekend wedding with your family and friends. This historic home was so loved by the Cambre family that they choose not to leave it! The home is haunted by the Cambre's and is avaiable to rent for paranormal overnights and events. Check out our many haunted events through the year. Outside food and catering is allowed. Pet friendly. Open to all events and alternative ceremonies.
