We had a lovely 3 night stay on Ryan and Tanya’s beautiful property. The site was large, level and easy to maneuver around with a west facing view. Every sunset was stunning. It was very private with 30amp and sewer. We filled our fresh water tank when we arrived. There are hoses long enough to reach the site if you need to refill. The hosts were easy to communicate with and quick to respond to any questions. St Louis is an easy 30 minute drive if you want to explore. There are also a couple small towns that are closer with provisions, restaurants, coffee shops, etc.
Ryan and Tanya were wonderful, kind hosts.
We will definitely stay again next time we’re in the area.

Ryan was an excellent host! He was flexible with our arrival, kind and helpful during the entire stay. It is unusual to find electric and sewer hookups. It was quiet and peaceful, just what we were needing.

This is our second time visiting Bear Creek Farm and it was once again Amazing! Camp sites are clean and spacious along with fantastic service from Debbie and the fam. Wood was provided for us at our camp site and although it did rain during our stay, we still had an awesome time here. Though we couldn't keep our fire going due to the rain we were greeted with a delicious breakfast that Matt prepared for us. I am so happy to have found Bear Creek Farm and ranch and will definitely be coming back.

Camping at the farm was a truly cozy and welcoming experience. The site was easy to locate and simple to pull into, making arrival a breeze. Conveniently situated near the bathrooms and showers—which were impressively clean and well-maintained. The animals were very friendly, adding to the peaceful surroundings. We enjoyed the hiking trails, which were clearly marked and offered a great way to explore the property. The hosts were inviting. We'd be thrilled to return for another stay.

A really lovely, quiet spot on the lake. Secluded, with more amenities than we imagined and was a wonderful way to spend an evening!

Beautiful lakeside location on well maintained land. The available kayaks were a plus and there is a large playground as well. A good secluded spot for a solo or family getaway.

After spending many nights at crowded state parks, it was delightful to relax in peace and quiet. The most noise we heard, was the bull frogs!
We were greeted by Matt. He is a kind and gentle soul and truly cared about his home and our comfort.
If you get a chance to travel to Palmer, Illinois, do yourself a favor and check out this great property. We are glad we did!

The Birch Back-In RV site isn’t just a stop, it’s the kind of place that makes you slow down without realizing it. The pond caught us first—quiet, glassy, the kind of water that makes you want to skip rocks and forget about time. The free kayaks and paddle board weren’t just perks, they were an invitation to get out there and live a little. We stayed, we breathed, we laughed. Tremendous place. We definitely will be back.

We had a wonderful stay! The site was clean, private, and peaceful with a beautiful view of the lake. We especially loved spending time by the water — so relaxing. The owners’ friendly dog even came by and made friend with our, which was such a sweet surprise. The hosts were warm and welcoming, making the experience even better. Highly recommend!

We had a great time at campsite 2! Nice and secluded area with a good size pond for fishing! We caught lots of bass (catch and release), and the shower/bathroom area was a short walk or drive away. The hosts were all nice/welcoming and would definitely go back again!

The farm was beautiful and quiet. My daughter really enjoyed the farm animals, especially Stella (dog) and we hiked both evenings to the prairie. Clean, well maintained, and easy to get to.

We stayed at The Grain Bin for three nights—one adult and four kids—and it was an unforgettable experience! The unique setup on Ryan’s beautiful farm made for the perfect family-friendly getaway.
The grain bin itself is cozy and full of charm. It offered just the right amount of shelter while still giving us that rustic camping feel. The kids had an absolute blast exploring the farm and especially loved spending time with the animals—pigs, cows, chickens, Guinea fowls, and their favorite of all… the CATS!
Ryan and his family were incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay, always making sure we had what we needed and making us feel welcome. The surrounding landscape is stunning, with corn and crop fields stretching out in every direction. Each evening, we were treated to gorgeous sunsets and the peaceful sounds of the farm—cows lowing in the distance, chickens clucking, and a general sense of calm that’s hard to find elsewhere.
This is a perfect spot for families, nature lovers, or anyone looking to slow down and soak in some quiet country beauty. We’ll definitely be back!
