30mi from Sheridan · 5 sites · Tents, RVs

Welcome! We want to note on the front hand that if you decide to stay with us you will be staying in a pasture behind a gate. This is especially important if you are tent camping, because your things will be safe while you explore Hot Springs and surrounding areas unlike a State Park or regular campground! Our land is home to a plethora of animals that you can visit with or just watch during your stay. There are our cattle (their names are on their ear tags), horses, goats (working on getting collars with names), Pickles the mini donkey, and our chickens (when they go out to free range). We also have a stocked pond that you can bring your fishing gear and fish! There are bass, catfish and bream! The horses names are Vivian and Bonnie and they normally stay in the pasture with our campers. Vivian is the larger of the two white horses and she loves attention. Bonnie is also white, but she is a bit smaller. She is Viv's sister! There is also the opportunity to see several species of wildlife while here. Part of our land is cleared for pasture and the rest is undisturbed forest. Two different creeks and hundreds of cedars adorn the land, hence the name "Cedar Creek Farms." Come enjoy the sounds of Ouachita Mountain nature and farm life with us.

The camp site was great with plenty of choices of where to set up. Amanda and Jordan were amazing hosts and I can't recommend this site enough. So if your wanting to camp in the hot springs AR area consider supporting Jordan and Amanda.

Amanda and Jordan were great hosts, super communicative and accommodating. Space was great, found some crawfish(not enough to eat, but fun to catch nonetheless), a 9 inch snapping turtle and a small snake in the creek. Horses were super friendly, and amazing. Highly recommend!

1 night at Cedar Creek Farms Camp

This was an absolutely wonderful and educational stay that I cannot recommend highly enough. For anyone looking for a peaceful escape with a personal touch, this is the perfect place. The property offers vast, beautiful land that is perfect for hiking and enjoying the serene atmosphere. The campsite itself was private, quiet, and easy to access, yet it felt a world away from any loud roads. What truly sets this camp apart are the wonderful hosts and the opportunity to interact with their animals. As a solo camper, a real highlight was the time the owners graciously spent sharing their knowledge about the land and the animals. I loved the engaging conversations and learning about the cows, which was a fascinating glimpse into the workings of the farm's natural world. I had a fantastic time meeting the sweet horses, the curious cows, and a very cute donkey. Vivian the horse was a particular sweetheart! I also got to see a few turtles and had a nice campfire. This Hipcamp offers the perfect blend of natural beauty, delightful animal encounters, and genuine hospitality, creating a unique and memorable experience. It was a perfect 10/10, and I will definitely be back for a longer stay in the future.

Easy to book, easy to find, and a nice level spot (we had a camper) very quiet, with fire ring and great green rolling pasture views. The sunrise was gorgeous. Only 15 miles from Hot Springs NP. Hosts Amanda and Jordan were kind and accommodating. Will definitely be back!

Amanda and Jordan were amazing hosts and had a beautiful property to stay at for the two nights I was visiting Hot Springs. I was traveling solo and they made staying with them comfortable and easy. They were very responsive and made sure to greet me both nights I stayed — even got to meet their pet raccoon, Genie! Will be staying with them in future.

Wow! Very much exceeded our expectations! The hot tub was secluded and surrounded by trees, the fireplace inside next to the bed was so cozy and warm. The VIEW alone is worth the stay. And you can see it from the bed, the indoor tub and outdoor hot tub! Really great host! Will definitely be back anytime we road-trip through the area! :)
