2024 total eclipse
In the path of the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse.
Until 2019, this farm was in the same family since 1889. It has been a working farm since that time. In 2019, our family purchased the farm and continue to operate it much the same way. Our family is devoted to history and preserving the essence of the past. You may very well see us pull up in one of our antique cars to greet you! Our neighbors are friendly and many are also small farmers. You can't see their farms from camp, but don't be surprised to hear roosters crowing, cattle mooing, and donkeys braying in the distance. Our farm is surrounded by the Hoosier National Forest, so you'll see and hear plenty of wildlife too. At various times during the summer, you may find wild blackberries, elderberries, and black raspberries growing right in camp!

We had a great time
We would come back again for sure. Unfortunately the weather for our week-long tent camping/hiking trip was mostly very cold and partially rainy, but even in the cruddy weather it was hard not to enjoy ourselves with all the beauty around us. We heard a fox, coyotes, two different species of owl, pileated woodpeckers, wild turkeys, racoons, and so many songbirds while sitting around camp or laying in the tent. We saw 100s of birds, deer, and squirrels all over the area. It did downpour rain for over 24 hours part of the trip, but it was a relief that the campsite never flooded or became too muddy. Several mornings when the weather was below freezing we would just take a scenic drive around to warm up before starting the day - highly recommend in the fall especially as the views were stunning in this part of the state. We very much enjoyed walking the well maintained trails of the property and soaking in the autumn colors. There were many trails in other parts of the Hoosier National Forest that were within an hours drive that were also great - we never saw another human on a single trail we chose. Pretty limited food/store options in the area. We found ourselves mostly using the Loves truck stop in Leavenworth for our meal and grocery needs, about a 20 minute drive from the property. Limited phone service with Verizon until you're in town. The host was great, he made sure we found the campsite, brought us a tank of water, and checked on us to make sure we were good!

Nathanael came to greet and welcome me on my arrival and to see if I needed anything. He gave me a history of the area and a few suggestions on things to see and do in the area. The campsite was easy to find, his directions were perfect. We enjoyed the privacy and I specially liked hearing the trains off in the distance late at night sitting by a warm campfire. I highly recommend this Hipcamp host and his property!!!!!!

Great remote stay close to lake!!
The campsite was great and remote! perfect view of the sunset and stars at night. The road nearby can be a little noisy at night but not too bad that it'll keep ya up. Very well attended to by the host and they were lovely to meet!

Clean, private camping
Such a cute campsite on a beautiful farm! This site is on an old road bed and would be best suited for a small camper or someone who camps in their suv. It wouldn’t be a comfortable place for a tent. The Dry Creek campsite is perfect for tents though! I loved camping in my suv in this shady, secluded spot.
