4 nights at R & T Farms

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.

Quaint place in an industrial neighborhood. The industrial noise goes away at night and it is an extremely pleasant and quiet place to camp. The brewery is awesome!

This is a closer view of the actual spot where you will park your camper.

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.

We had a lovely chill autumn stay! We were just traveling through and booked relatively last minute, Ryan was incredibly nice and helpful when we got in. Hopefully we will be able to stay a little longer if we swing through the area again!

1 night at Such and Such Farm Swimming Hole

We had so much fun! The site was shady and grassy, the swimming hole was a hit and the port-a-potties were the cleanest I’ve seen, ever. Plus there’s a handwashing station. Autumn was so nice to show us around the farm. We can’t wait to go back!

Weekend Trip to Such and Such Farm Swimming Hole

We had a great weekend camping at Such and Such Farm. Our spot was right along the creek. We were the only campers. It’s a beautiful swimming spot. Water is clear. Caught lots of little fish. We didn’t meet anyone but did drive down the road by the farm and saw some of the animals. Love the graffiti art they have around the farm. This place isn’t far away from where we live so it was a great spot to get away without having to go too far.

Weekend Trip to Hagood Farms and Trails

We had such a wonderful experience at this campsite! The location is peaceful and tucked away, making it feel private and cozy. At night we were able to enjoy a campfire, and the hosts went above and beyond by providing us with fresh eggs (including duck eggs) and firewood. They were incredibly kind, welcoming, and full of helpful suggestions about the area. We also enjoyed fishing in the small pond on the property and taking walks around the grounds. Our dog had the best time running free and exploring the nature around us. Everything about this place made us feel relaxed and connected to the outdoors. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be coming back!

I loved my stay here! I stayed with my boyfriend, we will be bringing friends next time for sure, it's so beautiful there! We pet the cows, and a kitten came to say hi. Plenty of firewood and got yummy farm fresh eggs for home. Ryan was so much more than accommodating, honestly a great host. The stars, sunset and sounds are really an amazing experience.

This was my first time using Hipcamp. I'm on a bicycle touring trip, camping evenings in a tent. This is the only place to camp within a day's distance between where I was coming from and where I'd be the next night. Ryan was right there to greet me when I arrived. He had a 5-gallon cooler filled with ice water waiting for me at the site. And what a beautiful site. The sunset views to the west were awesome! Ryan offered me a chair to use, but I enjoyed sitting on a farm trailer that happened to be nearby. It did rain all night, but the site is high enough that there are no flooding problems. Communications with Ryan were easy - he was available for any needs. I highly recommend this Hipcamp.

Really exceptional place. The hosts are tremendous people and do a terrific job of making you feel valued and cared for. It is our favorite place so far in our travels. Really fun stuff to do in the area if you venture out. Fantastic disc golf park nearby. The site amenities are superb. Highly recommend this site.
