Weekend Trip to Kokomo Farms

Great place to spend time and be with animals! Hosts are great!

3 nights at Kokomo Farms

I have stayed here before back in 2023, and I can say the same as I did then it is so magical here! Just the place I needed to be for my spring break from college to relax and enjoy nature stress free. The horses are so gentle and I enjoyed feeding them. Waking up to the roosters is so much more inviting than an alarm lol. Trudy is always the best host! My partner enjoyed all the games around and it got quite competitive! We also enjoyed some painting at the little paint station. I really recommended checking out the springs around in the area! But to top it off, my partner loved this place so much he proposed here! Like I said everything about this stay was magical and I can’t recommend it enough!

Weekend Trip to Kokomo Farms

Everything is just as described or better. There's plenty of space for campers to wander and the sites are spread out enough to give everyone privacy. Each site has their own grill for cooking and seating area and the main house has even more options for cooking and lounging. Stargazers won't be disappointed as the location is very remote and free of light pollution. There's also a dollar general just a couple miles away in case you forgot any necessities.

We loved our time here. The hosts were both very kind and helpful. They take pride in their land and made us feel right at home. It was a perfect getaway. The animals are an extra bonus and we enjoyed feeding them. We will definitely be back .

Weekend Trip to Kokomo Farms

My son and I got there later than we would have liked and had to leave early, but we absolutely loved Kokomo Farms! The tiny house was amazing and we’ve talked to quite a few people since leaving and told them all about it, and even helped a few people to download hipcamp so they can see for themselves and hopefully book a stay. The bed was very comfortable, the little fireplace heater kept us warm, the shower was amazing and the water pressure was great! My son is ready to come back asap and I’ve told him I’ll look into getting is back there as soon as I can. If you have to chance to book at Kokomo Farms just do it, I’d imagine all the stays there are great and comfortable!

4 nights at Treehouse Cabin Retreat - Florida

Everything was exactly as described. The host was great. We have a family of 6 and this was the perfect vacation for us. I highly recommend The Treehouse Retreat for families.

Trudy's farm is absolutely wonderful, and the treehouse was a special treat. Loved visiting with the animals--Trudy and roosters Burt and Ernie greeted me upon arrival. Didn't have time to enjoy everything that was available but really wish I had. Would def come back here!

Weekend Trip to Kokomo Farms

This was the nicest cabin hipcamp that we've stayed at. So nice that we didn't even get to do all the things it comes with because we had to leave early. If your looking for a place to sleep and have some activities this is your place. Plus all the proceeds go to them helping animals. If you have the extra money stay here!!

3 nights at Retreat Between The Lakes

Booked this last minute right before valentines weekend and we were accommodated no questions asked. I put a request to decorate the wall tent for a little extra cash to surprise my husband and they did such an amazing job at meeting my last minute needs. We arrived and our wall tent was decorated and ready with delicious snacks. 🤗Such a beautiful retreat! Had an amazing time under the stars. The hammock was our favorite! It was already provided in a nice weather protected box tidy and clean for us to use. It was fairly easy getting there. Although beware there are 2 Adam’s Rds. The gps took us through the first Adam’s road which is very closed off and there is a scary watery ditch. So if traveling y night to get there like we did just take the 2nd Adam’s road which gets you there safely. There was also lots of wild life in the area and we made a new kitty friend that stayed with us during our entire stay right outside our wall tent. We named her Campy! Charles was also very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. 10/10 recommend. Will be coming back with the whole crew next time! 🫶🏼💫🙏🏼

I loved staying at Kokomo Farms! It's really like staying at home as the owners are doing everything so you'd feel like it - from toasting marshmallows with you to serving fresh bagels in the morning. All of it was perfect!

Trudy was very welcoming and friendly, our stay was extremely relaxing and we loved all the animals just cruising around. There are lots of board games and things to keep you busy with, so no reason to be board during your stay. The pizza was 5 star.

Weekend Trip to Kokomo Farms

Trudy and Greg were great hosts! They were so friendly and provided many accommodations that made camping, for a beginner like myself, easy.

Weekend Trip to Treehouse Cabin Retreat - Florida

Quiet, quaint little getaway spot in the middle of nowhere but convenient to the river which is why we came. Treehouse is very unique! Cool place to stay with all the basic necessities. Heaters provided did a great job at getting a little chill out during overnight hours. Loved the string lights around the pavilion, the outdoor shower and the grill / fire ring.

Very lovely tent, I liked how the fireplace was right outside the tent and the lil table set up for us made it all feel like a home away from home. The hammocks under the shade of the trees was relaxing and it was perfect for reconnecting to nature

My husband and I absolutely loved our short stay! The place is simply amazing peaceful, beautiful, and filled with charming barnyard animals to feed and pet. We especially enjoyed sipping coffee and tea on the front porch and savoring fresh eggs. There's so much to explore and experience here, and we can’t wait to return for a longer visit. Highly recommend this HipCamp for anyone looking for a relaxing and unique getaway!

This place was AMAZING! The hosts were extremely nice and hospitable! The farm was super cute and clean. We brought carrots and loved feeding the horses. There was so much to do and see on the farm that we were entertained for hours. We had a bonfire when the sun went down and met some of the other people staying on the property. There was complimentary popcorn and marshmallows for the bonfire. In the morning, there was a griddle for campers to make farm fresh eggs and we were given homemade bagels. The cabin we were in was very cozy. The perfect size for 2 people. The animals are very well cared for and it was interesting to hear each of their stories about how they ended up at the farm. We would definitely stay here again.
