Avalon Unity Garden

This garden is intended to help people connect to Mother Earth. There is room for yoga or meditation with the plants. You can sleep in a tent, or your vehicle. 

It has a walkable spiral, an 18’ Mother Earth sculpture, an earth lodge for ceremonies and a hexagon swing area. It’s located in a very small farm community. We are about a mile from the Hennepin canal where you can walk, fish or canoe.

Lots of space to pitch a tent, do yoga, meditate, or dance in the moonlight.

Totz Hill

Learn more about this land:Trail up to sites is grass. For the most part the site is an open field surrounded by trees and farmers field with plenty of room for whatever. Just a short walk across the road is Rock Creek that feeds into the Rock River. Plenty of fish, canoeing, kayaking. The site is also along the Moose Run dirt bike trails. Also about 20 minutes away from Mississippi River access. We are far enough away from the city but close enough to the town if you need anything.

Vintage Spring Lake Campground

Spring Lake Campground was est. in 1943. The lake is fed by the Mississippi River and there is access to the lake and directly to the river for kayaking/boating and fishing, which is a popular reason people come to the campground. Another popular draw is that the Great River Bike Trail runs right through! It’s a beautiful ride from the campground to nearby Savanna, IL. There is so much to do in the surrounding area: hiking and climbing at Palisades State Park, restaurants, bars and shopping in Savanna, museums and more. But enjoying a peaceful time at the campground, having a bonfire, watching the sunset on the lake and seeing the stars at night is really what it’s about. True old school camping-enjoying the wildlife sanctuary. Get outside and relax.
 *We ask that our campers please arrive before dark to find their site and set up to avoid disrupting other campers. It gets really dark! We do not have street lights so people can see the stars.
