A simply unique accommodation. The Has Bin is Vermilion County's first and only grain bin bed and breakfast. The Has Bin Guest House is located 15 minutes north of Danville, IL. and 45 minutes east of Champaign/Urbana, IL.
Keeping it simple. That's what we're all about at The Has Bin. The Has Bin is located on a working farm in Northeastern Vermilion County, Illinois. We value hard work, simple pleasures, and family & friends. We grow corn, soybeans, and wheat. We raise our own beef and grow and preserve fruits & veggies from our garden.
The actual bin structure was assembled at its current location in the 1950s and was used as a working storage bin for grain until the 1970s when it was moved six miles south to a neighbor's farm for their use. Recently, when the bin was no longer needed there, it was moved back in one piece to its original location. The bin is 18' in diameter and accommodates two people. It features a sleeping loft, clawfoot tub/shower, satellite TV, a comfortable front porch, and an upper deck for viewing spectacular sunsets. Nights are quiet except for the occasional forlorn howl of the coyotes or the lonesome call of the train that runs directly behind the bin.
We hope your stay at the Has Bin will be a memorable one. Whether you just want to relax, explore the farm or the area, or go fishing at the pond; we hope you feel like family while you are here.
