We offer a "Camping Cabin", The "Cozy Camping Cottage" or tent camping in Black Walnut Grove, in an open field, in the woods, or a shady grove. We like to interact with people or you can keep to yourself and have a quiet getaway in the woods. Sorry, but the tree house isn't available to rent since it is my home. I may rent it out in the future. Also in progress is the "Dome"
We are on a solar powered, off the grid 30 acre homestead that has 24 acres of wooded land and 6 acres of groomed land. Come explore our land and relax in the "Tree Web", see the 2 story tree house that I live in, have fun on the tire swing, or just sit and enjoy all that nature has to offer. You can explore our interesting topography that has close to 100 foot of elevation changes, our (mostly) dry creek system that starts with 2 springs that drain into 3 sinkholes or walk 3 miles of trails (if you follow each trail from end to end).
We love groups - Host your event here or have a group gathering with all your friends and family. We have spaces large enough to host hundreds of people.
We welcome pets for camping, but no pets allow in the Camping Cabin. Also be aware that we have 2 friendly dogs on the land that roam freely.

Flora, IN · 10 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Enjoy a stay at Heritage Farm and experience all the exhilaration that an Indiana farm has to offer. Heritage Farm is a working alpaca farm with over 50 alpacas you can watch and interact with. Also residing on the farm are a flock of chickens, several goats. The newest addition to the farm is a pair of small breed Kune Kune pigs! If you want to, you can help with the daily chores of feeding the animals and collecting eggs. After that, you can explore the big red barn that was selected as one of the top-ten Bicentennial barns in the state. Roam around the 120 acre homestead, woods and creek and soak in the sights, sounds and smells of the farm. Be sure to visit our farm store before you leave where you can shop for alpaca products such as sweaters, hats, mittens and scarves. Pick up some farm fresh eggs from our flock of pastured chickens!
Heritage Farm has several options for overnight lodging. One of the most popular places to stay is in our authentic 1850's log cabin. And it's certainly special to us as well. The cabin represents a valued part of our heritage. It reminds us every day of our agricultural roots, solid values and the importance of faith and family.
Our Philosophy
You want to have a wonderful stay at Heritage Farm and we want that for you too. This is your retreat for however long you are staying and we hope you'll be relaxed, comfortable and happy.
Our Faith
Our Christian faith is important to us. We have been so richly blessed with this farm and sharing it with others is what God has called us to do. We strive to show God's love to our guests by exceeding their needs and expectations and by inviting them to enjoy his beautiful creation.
We abide by what it says in the Bible in 1 Peter 4:9-10:
"Cheerfully share your home with those who need a place to stay. God has given each of us a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another."
Valuing Our Past, Building for the Future
Our mission at Heritage Farm is to apply that same pioneer spirit and value system to our alpaca business and Farm Stay enterprise. We are dedicated to working hard to provide the best of care to our herd and our overnight guests.

It is truly a peaceful haven in a rural country area. Learn more about this land:Hang your hammock or pitch a tent just outside our 3/4 acre pond. There are two basins with a channel and a peaceful tree filled grass area between.

ELECTRIC IS LIMITED TO A FEW SPOTS CLOSE TO THE HOUSE; QUIET GENERATORS WELCOME!
Once the secret speakeasy after dark spot for local political big wigs this property has been transformed from swampland to hidden gem right on the edge of America's Hometown of Muncie, Indiana!
Welcome to Narnia! Or Atlantis!? Or... The Property? The Hidden Valley? We just haven't committed to a name yet so it's a little bit of everything all rolled into one! 8 acres on the magical Ganges, er, White River makes for a fun time. You can expect a certain amount of privacy while still potentially making a new friend or two depending on the night. You will be nestled under some giant sycamores, cottonwoods, black walnuts, catulpas, and a mess of bush honeysuckle that is always being battled! We have 2-3 sites directly on the river and then scores throughout with trails, hills, and other interesting features. Multiple firepits though I CANNOT guarantee firewood. There is often plenty to collect or available on site but if you can bring your own that'd be safest bet!
We are (somehow) located partially inside Muncie city limits right on the river. Yes you may occasionally hear some trains or even particularly loud cars while camping deep in the woods but this is the tradeoff for a one mile drive to bars, restaurants, and groceries! Best of both worlds. The Muncie Eagles, whose nest resides directly across the river from us, do not seem to mind! This location is also directly on two main bike trail routes and our trails are fun for low impact mountain biking! We also have a small armada of kayaks/canoes on site; IF arranged that option does exist for cost of transport! We have 2 porta potties on site as well and fresh water hose available at main house.
Looking forward to hosting!

When we bought this property in 2013, it was a little run down. Many years ago, it housed sheep and cows. We revamped our little 15-acre farm and continue to improve its looks. Now it is our home and houses my riding stable. Many people have commented on how nice it is. I thought this would be a great opportunity to share its beauty and the animals with others.
Learn more about this land:
We have 3 spots to pitch a tent, but we're pretty flexible. If you see another area, please ask!. Site "Woods" is most secluded. We now have a cabin!! Our "Chalet".

Suggested Local Attractions:The World's Greatest Amateur Circus: Peru, Indiana, is also known as the "Circus City". In the late 1800s and early 1900s, Peru was home to the Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus and others. Even the Ringling Brothers Circus wintered there for a while. For 10 days each July, Peru celebrates the Circus City Festival with rides, crafts, food, games, and more. The highlight, however, is the live amateur circus that has performances throughout the festival. A unique and authentic experience that echoes the early heyday of the circus, this is a fun event not to be missed. Performers are locals, some of whom are direct descendants of professional performers in the earlier shows. Even if a visit is timed to occur outside of July, a visit to the small but impressive International Circus Hall of Fame might be worth the trip. Circus Hall of Fame is located 1.8 miles from Camp Ames.

We had an amazing stay. The evening was quiet and peaceful. We could hear frogs from the pond, which was exciting. And we saw HUNDREDS of lightening bugs. During our stay we were also joined by the barn cats, juno and multiple alpacas.
It was wonderful to get away from the business of life and the city. We will definitely be staying again.

Lovely property tucked back in the midst of crops - quiet and welcoming.
We stayed in an RV for one night in front of the red barn. We explored the property briefly. They had the large slide down the hill, a creek to wade in, a place to play basketball and ping pong, corn hole, tons of kittens, alpacas of course, and the two older dogs. Kids would love it here!
Important to note: While water is available to use, it is not available to hook up to the camper. We misunderstood this detail, so could not take showers. They offered to let us fill up our source tank for water, but we opted to not do this. They have two outhouse style bathrooms about 20 steps away. When you turn on the lights, a fan also turns on to help blow air around. It has a traditional toilet and cold water via a sink, but in July, it was toasty!! Electric worked wonderfully and the barn is a fun place to hang out (if it wasn’t as hot as it was this time of year)!
Needless to say, this is a super fun property, clean, safe, lots of space to explore, gorgeous barns, and would make an incredible fall or spring stay! We enjoyed ourselves and would recommend.

We went tent camping and chose spot 12 because another review said it felt like you were by yourself out there. It was perfect. A complete tree canopy of shade, trees on all sides like a barrier, and just up the path is a field where we set up our telescope to view the stars. The picnic table was a little worse for wear but it got the job done. The trees were close enough together that we tied a long line between two of them to let our dog walk around most of the campsite. Plenty of space for our 6 person tent and 2 person tent, car, 3 camp chairs, and the hammock (on its own stand). Spacious. The trails weren't too far away so we took the one called hills and creek. There were indeed many hills and a creek. My husband glimpsed a deer but it moved away before anyone else saw it.
Overall it was nice to feel tucked away and be left alone by society for a short while.

We wanted a campsite that felt secluded without actually being secluded because it was our kids first time camping and they aren’t the quietest. The view was beautiful and the trails were nice and maintained. We were able to walk the trails with our young children. They loved cooling off in the creek and the water spigot. Brian was also very kind and was able to get us some more firewood. We were a little worried about getting our vehicles back out with it being rainy, but we were able to get our cars out without any issues. Overall a great experience.

Weekend Trip to Happy Hollow Homestead
We stayed at Happy Hollow Homestead this past weekend for my birthday, and even though it poured rain almost the entire time and parts of the property were flooded, it was honestly one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed.
We ended up being the only campers there, which I’m sure had everything to do with the weather, but it made for such a peaceful reset. The trees were absolutely beautiful, the property was well cared for, and one thing I really noticed was how clean everything was. There wasn’t trash laying around anywhere. You could tell the owner really loves this place.
Kerry was an amazing host. Before we even arrived, he kept us updated about the weather, the flooding, and what to expect. We got there really late because of the storms, and he was so gracious that he gave us a free night because of the rain and our late arrival. That was completely unexpected and so appreciated.
He also took the time to give us a tour of the property and showed us the different spaces he’s working on. It was exciting hearing his vision for Happy Hollow. You can tell he’s putting his heart into making it something special.
Honestly, I knew it was going to rain before we came, so the weather wasn’t anyone’s fault. Sometimes you just have to embrace what Mother Nature gives you. For me, the experience was still 100% worth it.
I’m so glad I found the Hipcamp app because I probably never would have discovered this little hidden gem otherwise. We’ll definitely be back,

Another lovely weekend at Camp David. Put the new expanded kitchen area. to use and enjoyed the new lights. It wasn't good weather for a river float but we did a little exploring and stopped at the local creamy whip for a tasty treat. David is a wonderful host and we're already looking forward to our next visit.

This is a great spot to camp, lots of options. Property abuts the St. Mary’s river and has a bench overlooking it. Great way to moss the time. The weather has been exceptional!

Host was very flexible and good communicator. Site was clean and functional, easy to get to, nice sitting area. Only complaint is we could not find the indoor restrooms anywhere; it was dark and there were no signs, and it was too late to reach out to the host. We used the outhouse but I’m sure the restrooms are nice if you can locate them!
