With a lifetime of love for the Ozarks Donny is anxious to share this unique opportunity to experience true wilderness with you. The trails are maintained with respect for the natural growth and inhabitants of the area. You may encounter wild elk and deer. Of course, visiting the property's herd of buffalo is a must. Your camping fees entitle you to hike the trail system. We also offer motorized recreation if you bring your 4 wheeler, side by side, Jeep, dirt bike or bicycle. Additional fees apply to wheeled trail recreation.Over 3000 acres of spectacular wilderness with over 50 miles of trails to hike or ride. One of a kind waterfall and cliff side camping is available, BUT YOU NEED A TRAIL READY VEHICLE TO GET TO THEM!   When you book on Hipcamp you will absolutely have a camp site. If there is a specific site you want you must book it on our website.   The Hipcamp sites are a first come first pick from sites that are available when you arrive. You can reserve specific sites on our website.  There are beautiful sites that you can reach with your daily driver and then hike to see the sites. Individuals, Groups and Events welcome. Camping is $15 per person or $50 per family per night. If you accidentally book your reservation for only one person per night and you arrive with additional people, you will be required to pay the additional fees at check in. Campsite selection is first come first serve. Exploring the trails on foot is included. Hiking and climbing is included in your camping fee. There are 3 trail heads that you can drive most vehicles to and then hike in to the special features.  Accessing the trail system in your vehicle will cost you additional fees upon arrival.

If you get stuck you will incur additional fees and inconvenience to get it out again. If you bring a trail ready vehicle and want to explore the trails there are ADDITIONAL FEES that can be handled when you arrive.  2 wheeled vehicles = $20 per rider 4 wheeled vehicles - $30 per driver.  On Trail Passengers are an additional $10 each.

Buffalo Galore!
This was a fantastic spot! The manager is so accommodating and allowed us to pick new campsite and set it up. We ended up down by the lake and had such a beautiful site that we will definitely be back! Thanks again for a lovely eclipse weekend! :)

The campgrounds is beautiful. They have campsites that are spaced farther apart so you’re not crowded. The people are awesome! Priced very reasonably. Overall incredible experience. Would definitely come back.

Total eclipse of the Buffalo!
My partner and I absolutely loved our time here. Stephanie was a joy to chat with and very informative. There were 50+ campers there for the eclipse, but the ranch was so big we had plenty of distance for our own private campsite atop of a hill with a gorgeous view. The Buffalo were fun to look at and very calm (just don’t pet!). There is a 4 mile gravel/dirt road leading up to the site, so just take it slow when arriving. The nearby 70’ waterfall was a pleasant short hike, relatively easy with some minor obstacles, well worth it! They have snacks, ice, drinks, apparel, etc available to purchase where you check in at, and there’s a cute dog named Puck. We will definitely try to make our way back here next year, or sooner if possible!

The office ladies were amazing! So nice and informative! They had maps of near by attractions, stores, and trails. All the campsites were well spaced out and unique. (Note: there is no only a fire pit no grill, so bring a rack or small grill). So much terrain for every kind of camper is available here! Meadow, valley, woods, and so much more here. It's a hike to see the neater parts of this property if you don't have a side by side but there are several neat waterfalls/hikes to explore within 30mins of campsites. All in all a very awesome experience

We car camped for a quick night to break up a road trip but wish we had longer to stay! SO welcoming, spread out sites, gorgeous views, and the cleanest outhouse I’ve ever seen
