Our 100 acre heritage property has been in the family for over 150 years. Since 2017, we've been operating our land as a Vegan, Regenerative-Agriculture Farm & Animal Sanctuary. We currently have a herd of 31 Cows, 4 Potbelly Pigs and 2 Spanish Goats. The cows and pigs are all rescue animals so, where as they are adapted to humans being around them, they are very shy and petting them is not allowed. The goats, on the other hand, are very friendly and love to be pet and fed treats. We are located outside of Dime Box, TX and are a 30 minute drive from the quaint, artist village of Round Top, and 12 miles from Lake Somerville SP. Our property has equal parts rolling pastures and wooded thickets and ravines. There are plenty of nooks and crannies to explore and gorgeous views of the Texas horizons....time your stay just right and you can stand directly between the sunset and the moonrise! We also have a hike-and-bike, nature trail that offers a 360 loop around the property. We currently offer a Port-A-Potty for restroom needs and we have water access points for non-potable water suited for washing hands, dishes or camping gear.

Excellent camping spot!
It was great tent camping on Hollie & Davey’s land! We booked an RV spot, but they let us know beforehand that we could use a tent spot for the sake of privacy as the other RV would be occupied. That turned out to be wonderful, as we were able to get good sleep away from the lights and sounds of the RV people. The tent spot was on a plot of open land backed up to the trees, and ours had a very nice little covered area within the trees where we were able to hang up a hammock in the shade. Very comfortable and quiet, and I loved the cows!

Second time as lovely as my first
I loved my time at Hollie and Davey’s Hipcamp. They are gracious and generous hosts. The land is beautiful and I really appreciate that the spots feel private and tucked away. They have a Trail around the property that makes for a nice afternoon walk. We really enjoyed our time there this weekend.

Nice place!
My wife and I haven't camped in years. We decided to get back into it with a stay at Hollie and Davey's camp. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Site 4 was private, with a fire ring, and an easy walk to the onsite toilet. We were welcomed by a fluffy, white dog who checked in with us from time to time to make sure we we were enjoying our stay. Highly recommend. We will be back.

Site 6 - with a 4 legged welcome
A very nice place to camp and enjoy the peace and quiet of the outdoors. Nice walks and some beautiful animals to keep you company along the way. I can’t say enough about Hollie and Davey… great people that want you to enjoy your time with them and are willing to help out however they can. I would also highly recommend meeting the pups, cats, goats, pigs, and cows. I live in the big city and really needed some quiet downtime to relax and reconnect and I definitely found it here.

We had the best time on this little getaway. We were looking for a place where we could take our dog off leash, and this spot was perfect. Not only are the hosts so accommodating, but there truly is so much to explore. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Great camping site. Preferred this to most campgrounds because you are more spread out from others. Also had a friendly cat and dog come visit us at our campsite!
