Fort Wayne, IN · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
Learn more about this land:
Our location is also home to our fantasy destination, The Fun Farm. Not only is the scenery replete with natural beauty - the pond, the fields, the sledding hill, the nature trail through the forest - but also a setting to engage the imagination!
Additional services may be arranged on-site. For example, who would you like to have breakfast with? A superhero? A princess? Or perhaps a souvenir caricature of you and your group is in order to commemorate the experience? Maybe an experiential art, dance, drama or music lesson? Guided tours of the grounds can also be arranged to learn more about the history of the farm and it's originality.
If you're interested in a "day trip" or even a limited event, we have the facilities to accommodate your birthday or holiday, engage in art Classes, raise funds for your good cause or enjoy "something different" for this year's corporate party. We're also open to your ideas for a custom school, festival or carnival event. We can accommodate groups from 1 to 400 (maybe more, if we send a few enchanted creatures on vacation!)
MORE NOTES ABOUT THE CAMPSITE: We're flexible with wherever you would like to pitch your tent, but the spots we have established are next to our cabin (where the lighting is best and the ground is flattest.) Parking is most easily found next to these sites as well (and the lighting is also excellent.) Also, in the near vicinity, a shared firepit is readily available and can accommodate at least 12 people.
Check out the additional options (like firewood bundles) below and let us know how we can help you make great memories!

Nice place especially for a quick stay. We were visiting family in town and just wanted a spot to land for the day/night. It’s well kept and offers some nice scenery considering it’s inside FT Wayne’s outer belt. Would certainly recommend to those looking for a spot to park/rest and the host was good with communication. One review I read said the place was buggy. Well it’s in the outdoors and has a pond and trees/grass. Pretty sure that’s normal!!😘. Overall it worked well for us.

This was one of our best camping experiences. We booked last minute for tent camping. The site was beautiful. The duck pond is a real treasure if you are traveling with kids (I was with my 8 year old - who had a blast!). But just sitting by the pond and watching the fish and turtles and of course the ducks is a great experience for any body! Lisa and Earl were exceptional. They also have chickens - another treat to keep my 8 year old super excited. The bathrooms were very clean. Hot water was a luxury. The hosts have eyes for every detail and go out of their ways to make it a great stay. We ABSOLUTELY LOVED Sleek Acres!

I loved tent camping on Lisa and Earl’s property! I only met Lisa but she was so welcoming and accommodating, and helpful in making local recommendations! The property is lovely, and very peaceful despite the slight road noises off I the distance m, with Lisa and Earl offering opportunities to sit by the pond and feed the ducks, play a plethora of yard games, and enjoy the quiet calm of a safe and convenient fire in the fire pit. The potable water is a unique flavor and smell but so thankful to have it in close walking distance pretty centrally located from all the camp sites.

We had a fantastic stay at Sleek Acres and would absolutely give it 5 stars. The property is peaceful, well-maintained, and exactly what we were hoping for—a relaxing, comfortable place to unwind. Our spot was easy to access and set up in, and everything was just as described (if not better).
Earl and Lisa were wonderful hosts: friendly, responsive, and genuinely welcoming. Their hospitality really made our stay special, and we especially appreciated them letting us borrow a grill, which made our meals so much easier and more enjoyable. We’d happily stay here again and highly recommend Sleek Acres to anyone looking for a great camping experience.

Pond side camping site was lovely! Close to the restrooms, sink, and the beach. We enjoyed walking around the pond with our dog and greeting the ducks and feeding the catfish. Having toilets, shower, and a sink nearby while camping was great. Pretty and quiet camping spot, a nice getaway from Chicago for a few nights.. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back soon. Lisa and Earl were great!

3 nights at Graber Oasis
Shari and David have created a true little oasis at Graber Oasis! From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed - not only by Shari and David, but also by a whole crew of adorable pups that immediately made us smile.
We were especially grateful for how kind and accommodating they were when inclement weather forced us to postpone our first night. Their flexibility and communication made a stressful situation so much easier.
The campsite itself is spacious, private, and beautifully situated right on the river. The newly installed water pump was incredibly convenient, and we appreciated having plenty of firewood, a picnic table, and hammock posts already set up. The complimentary kayaks and canoes were a fantastic bonus, and the river is perfect for a peaceful paddle.
We loved exploring the nearby hiking trails, watching the abundant wildlife, and taking in the beautiful scenery around the property. David was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and we enjoyed talking with him and learning more about the area and the property they've thoughtfully created for guests to enjoy.
If you're looking for a peaceful riverside getaway with wonderful hosts and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors, Graber Oasis is a gem. We left feeling refreshed and already looking forward to our next visit!

Sleek Acres is the perfect place to go get away as a family. We took our kids there for our second visit and had an absolute blast! From sunup till sundown they found themselves occupied by the pond, the ducks, the pond, the games, the pond (sensing a theme?) and were already asking when we were going to come back when we were packing up the truck. Earl and Lisa were super kind and personable and I highly recommend you take a trip and enjoy sleek acres, you won’t regret it!

We had a great stay, which started with a warm welcome from Lisa. She gave us a heads up that our booked site was still quite soggy from recent rains, and led us to an equally private and lovely available site. We enjoyed a fire under dark starry skies and woke to a chorus of birdsong. Bathrooms were clean and convenient, and we enjoyed a quick chat with the ducks by the pond on our way out.
