About

Safehouse Farm Alpacas is a small family run farm located in Barrington, IL, nestled adjacent to the six hundred acre Lake County Cuba Marsh Preserve, amid vaulting century old oaks and giant elms. Our home dates from pre-Civil war times and an Underground Railroad tunnel runs from below the main house to the woods behind. Once employed as a safe haven for escaping slaves, Public Enemy Number One Baby Face Nelson and his gang used the tunnel in the 1930s as a secret escape route to flee from G-Men. After Nelson’s demise, the FBI bricked up the openings and collapsed the tunnel. Hence the name “Safehouse Farm.”
