Campers will need to bring sleeping bags and food. Dogs are welcome. There is a rustic restroom (outhouse), with an outdoor shower. Water and electricity are available at the restroom and campsite. In addition, Navigation Play-Williamsburg, provides outdoor play opportunities at the farm on a seasonal basis. If interested, find her on her facebook page. Our dream was to restore an old farmstead to prairie and woods, grow our own food, make some wine and create a wonderland for grandchildren. The tipi and pond campsite is our way of sharing our place. We love meeting new people, especially those that are looking for a new camping experience.A great meeting place for families, just 3 miles from Interstate 80 and within 30 minutes of the Amana Colonies, Williamsburg Square. and Fireside Winery. Campers can drive to the site through our farmstead. We will be there to meet you and show you around. Parking is available at the site. Canoes, kayaks, cooking equipment etc will be set up at the campsite. There is a rustic restroom (outhouse) in the timber, just south of the tipi. It includes an outdoor sink and shower.

  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    Walking Stick Adventures offers a serene and well-equipped campsite that promises a peaceful escape into nature. Visitors consistently praise the thoughtful amenities, like cooking supplies and comfortable sleeping arrangements in the tipi, as well as the generous hospitality of the hosts. The site is particularly appreciated for its private setting, beautiful sunsets, and opportunities for activities like kayaking and hiking. However, some guests noted issues with the pond's usability due to vegetation, which affected certain activities such as fishing and swimming.

    A little slice of heaven… beautiful setting that is somehow perfectly rustic while having all the amenities for easy, fun camping - kayaks, canoes, life jackets, cots, cooking tools, running potable water, and a shower. We loved the many walking trails and spent hours on the pond. Our kids loved the treehouse (6 and 9yo) and our dog was delighted to roam. The highlight was falling asleep in front of the fire in the cozy teepee. The hosts are so helpful and welcoming. We can’t wait to return!

    The land was absolutely beautiful, and our host was so kind and helpful! She had everything we could have needed ready for us. The tepee was definitely an experience 😁
