Buena Vista Farms was created first as a wedding venue, thus the Beautiful Views all around developed for great photo ops. After 5 years hosting events on our 130 acre farm, we developed a campground. Tiny Home cabins have been added more recently for groups of up to 21 people. What should the next phase of development be? This summer we are working on the office to add gift shop and camp store in the Old Grain Bin. We welcome weekend RV'ers, and those who want a Glamping experience in the Tiny Home cabins as well as work campers who stay a bit longer. We will keep a few RV spots open all winter.

Hidden Ridge is a peaceful wooded hideaway overlooking Otter Lake, offering an authentic, off‑grid camping experience with a few comforts of home. Your stay includes a 14×16 canvas wall tent set on a stilted deck with a queen bed and beautiful lake views. A private outhouse with a flushing toilet, hot shower, and outdoor cooking area are all yours.
We’re beginning construction on a tiny treehouse nearby, so you may see an active build area as our long‑time dream takes shape. Many campers enjoy watching the progress.
Groups are welcome — up to eight guests. Bedding is provided for two; additional campers should bring tents, cots, or air mattresses. There’s plenty of space to spread out and make camp your own.
Otter Lake offers boating, skiing, tubing, and excellent fishing. Canoes and kayaks can be rented through Otter Lake Park, and the boat ramp makes it easy to launch your own. Note: Otter Lake is a no‑swim lake. Check with the park office for fishing permits or fees.
Hidden Ridge is fully off grid. A small solar‑powered battery provides just enough energy to pump water for the bathroom and kitchenette and to power a few soft string lights. Please use electricity sparingly so the battery lasts your entire stay. Enjoy lanterns, firelight, and cooking over an open flame or grill. Winter heating is provided by a small propane heater.
Verizon and AT&T service are reliable; plan to recharge devices from your vehicle.

Listen to the chirp of songbirds as you meander along the rolling hillsides at the Weinberg-King Fish & Wildlife Area. Autumn olive trees and honeysuckle dot this 772-acre slice of land, where a wide variety of hunting and fishing would have just about anyone game.

Welcome to our piece of paradise. Our family bought “The Land” when our kids were young and it became our weekend camping, fishing, and exploring retreat. We now want to share our rolling hills, fishing ponds and country life with you. Hidden down a farm lane, our land is perfect for spending time in nature. We have well-maintained grass walking trails, two 1-2 acre spring fed, 35 ft deep, well stocked fishing ponds, kayaks, row boats, fishing dock and waders for walking in the creek. We invite you to indulge yourself in the complete quiet of the country and enjoy the serenity of nature. You are far enough away from the big city to see thousands of stars at night, but close enough to get anything you need. You are less than 20 minutes from Jim Edgar Panther Creek State Fish and Wildlife Park, 30 minutes from Emiquon National Wildlife Refuge and Dickson Indian Mounds, 40 minutes from the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and historic sites.

If I could give Double Hearts Ranch more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. We took the family out for a tent camping trip, and it exceeded every single expectation. From the moment we set up camp under the wide-open skies, we knew we’d found a true hidden gem.
What makes this place world-class, though, is Tom and Tamitha. Calling them "great hosts" doesn't do it justice—their hospitality is next-level. When our camp fan broke in the middle of our stay, they went completely out of their way to bring us a fresh fan and an extension cord so we’d stay comfortable. On top of that, they treated us to fresh farm eggs and delicious, fresh-picked blackberries! You just don't find that kind of genuine care and kindness anywhere else.
A few highlights from our stay:
* Unmatched Hospitality: Tom and Tamitha make you feel like family. Their thoughtfulness turned what could have been a hot, stressful night with a broken fan into one of our favorite memories.
* Fresh Farm Goodies: Enjoying fresh eggs and sweet blackberries right at our campsite was such a special, unforgettable touch.
* Perfect Family Atmosphere: The grounds are gorgeous, amazingly kept, and ideal for tent camping. It’s quiet, peaceful, safe for the kids, and gives you that real, authentic farm-ranch feel while still being close to the lake.
If you’re looking to unplug, pitch a tent, and make incredible memories with your family, book Double Hearts.
Tamitha and Tom, THANK YOU!!!

This is hands down one of the most incredible campgrounds we have visited. We loved our stay and cannot wait to plan our next visit. It was close enough to civilization that we didn’t feel completely lost but far enough away that the week held magic and wonder. The kids all loved exploring and playing. super Clean bathrooms and showers. The only problem we had was we needed more time we didn’t get to see all we wanted to!

Wow what a beautiful place! Katie and her family were so welcoming and helpful. The bathroom was clean and cool. The lake was lovely and fun. The sky views, 10/10! There was even a lil tarp over our camping spot’s firewood to keep it dry for guests (so thoughtful).

The place was quiet and peaceful well away from the crowds. I pitched my tent and absolutely SLEPT LIKE A ROCK. The bathrooms and showers were clean and well cared for.
My only complaint, and it's not their fault, is this place is deep into mosquitoes and tick central. In the heat of summer you are what's for dinner. In the cooler months closer to deer season things should be perfect here.
