Our camping trip was absolutely amazing! The Daisy Hill cabin was clean, cozy, and comfortable a perfect spot to unwind after exploring. Sam was super communicative and helpful, and everyone on the farm was so welcoming. James was incredibly kind and even helped us milk the goats and collect eggs from the chicken coop. Such a fun, hands-on experience! Sarah did a fantastic job sharing the history of the farm and letting us play with the goats.
We also loved supporting the nonprofit organization behind the farm. Their mission is truly inspiring and something we’re proud to be part of. The farm itself was beautiful, the market veggies were fresh and delicious, and having access to the learning center for Wi-Fi and clean restrooms was a huge plus.
Overall, a 10/10 experience. We can’t wait to come back with more family and friends!

This was our second time staying at Whispering Pines Campground, and we just had to come back for their Fall Fest! My little boys (ages 4 and 2) had an absolute blast — from the mini pumpkin patch and petting zoo to the pony petting, playground, and carnival games. There was so much to do, and the amazing food trucks meant we never had to leave the campground for meals! The staff were so friendly and helpful, and both the cabin and bathhouse were spotless and well-maintained. We can’t wait to come back again next year! Spring break can't come soon enough!

It was a lovely place to stay to unwind and connect with nature. The learning center was a bonus cause we could shower and use the bathroom. The hosts were really accommodating and nice. The farm looked beautiful and the trails were really pleasant to walk around and through.

We are typically super primitive camping types but my daughter said “hey mom can we have 4 walls, AC, and electricity but still have adventure?”. Well of course I said and this was the perfect mix. AC, microwave and mini fridge with actual beds was a great treat! We cooked on the grill and had a fire in the fire pit every night. Close to the Hennepin Canal for a hike or Geneseo for a cute town. Loved the close bathrooms and shower yet felt like you were away.
Suggestions: bring a wagon if you have a lot to bring to your site or cabin as you cannot pull up to your spot. Bring your own bedding. Do not bring firewood as it can endanger the local trees but firewood there is very very well priced!

Great family experience for teenagers. Plenty to explore and wander. Nearby Matheson Park (lower dells), and Princeton's bike shop were also highlights. Would visit again. Sorry to have missed the pizza!

We loved this trip! It was hot out, but the battery and fan they provided really helped us out. Putting out a sprinkler also provided some relief from the heat. Everyone was so helpful, kind, and accommodating.

It was serene & peaceful sleeping in a rustic cabin & 2 yurts with a gazillion stars overhead. Sam was a gracious host with a passion for regenerative farming. Very kind, very comfortable, very welcoming. It reminded us to respect the animals, the terra, the planet we inhabit & be grateful.
Truly a worthwhile experience to escape the noise & reset.
Thank you Sam

Loved everything, but couldn't drive to the cabin, had to carry everything from the parking lot. Although the girl at check in offered to take everything over in the golf cart. Very friendly and very peaceful place.
We left very early but I would say the game room and hammocks were awesome. Everything thing was clean and as described.

Had such a lovely time! we stayed in the cozy cabin, and spent our time there just enjoying the beautiful scenery. The host was so welcoming, and even helped us out once our car got stuck (city amateurs over here). There are trails all over the place that you're free to explore. We had a lot of fun saying hi to the cows, goats, and chickens. DEFINITELY COMING BACK SOON!

We just got back from the most amazing stay at Whispering Pines in Geneseo, IL, and we can’t say enough good things about it! My wife and I brought our two boys (ages 4 and 1), and it was truly the perfect family getaway.
The modern cabin was spotless, beautifully updated, and had everything we needed to feel right at home. Our boys absolutely loved waking up each morning and heading straight to the playground and sandbox—it kept them entertained for hours. One of the highlights was the mini trail with a scavenger hunt, which was such a fun touch for the kids.
What really stood out was how kind and thoughtful the staff were. One of the employees went above and beyond by bringing a kiddie pool from her own home so our boys could splash around and cool off on the hot days. It made their trip extra special!
The bath house was extremely clean, and we felt completely safe throughout our stay. We are already planning our next visit next month because we loved it so much. Highly recommend Whispering Pines to anyone looking for a relaxing, family-friendly camping experience!

Very private area with nice walking trails. They give you a tour of the land where you get a chance to see how they run the farmstead. Great people work there and they are very informative and hospitable. Sam is quick with response time through the app, so we were never sitting wondering what was going on. Had a lovely little escape from the city.

Wonderful venue for people with young kids. They have a playground on site. Plenty of fire pits for the all important s’mores. Facilities are clean and well maintained. Cabins do get very cold in colder weather so get warmer blankets if you run cold. Just a suggestion for the hosts maybe a space heater for winter time. Great place to stay!
