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.

Hill Springs Campground is nestled on our 120-acre family farm, and we’re proud to be the third generation to care for this little piece of paradise.

The rolling hills provide hay for our cows and wood for the stove, and we take great pride in sharing this beautiful spot with you.
Each site offers the chance to unwind by the pond, pick wild blackberries, or hike through our woods. Fire pits are available. Our sites are simple—no water, electricity, or internet—but generators are welcome, and we provide a toilet on-site. Please remember to pack out all your trash, including cigarette butts.
For a glimpse of what to expect, check out a few videos of the campground on our Facebook page, 'hillspringcampground.'
We’re also close to plenty of activities:
Patoka Lake is just 3 miles away, with 8,800 acres of water, 26,000 sq. feet of land, and a variety of outdoor fun—boating, fishing, hiking, and even a winery.
Historic French Lick and West Baden are 16 miles away, offering everything from casinos to a scenic railway, golf courses, a spa, a wildlife park, and the stunning West Baden Springs Hotel, known as the 'Eighth Wonder of the World.'
The city of Jasper is 14 miles away, with a charming riverwalk, museums, parks, and food trucks to explore.
The small town of Dubois is just 4.5 miles away, with local taverns, a gas station, and a True Value store.
At Hill Springs, you can be as close or as far away from the action as you want to be. We’re excited to share this experience with you and welcome your feedback as we start this journey with Hipcamp. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions!

While driving from Wisconsin to the smoky mountains me and hubby were going to stay in a hotel, but hubby said let’s look for a spot to camp no clue where to stay.

We stayed at cliffhanger 2 and it was such an awesome spot! Definitely would recommend a car with 4WD if you can - our AWD made it up okay(ish), however. The property is stunning and the history is a great read. Loved seeing the cows and friendly dogs roam the property. Great bathroom facility as well. Thanks Chuck and Van! We hope to be back very soon.

This is a nice spot. Well kept and easy to find campsites. It’s especially good if you like trains and airplanes. The proximity to the railroad and Louisville airport means there are low flying planes and some trains going by. I didn’t mind, and it’s certainly no fault of the host, but it’s something to be considered. Had a good time and would recommend to others.

Great open space that lets you be off grid while in Louisville! I did not use the showers, but the camp sink with running water was so useful as was the power hookup to keep my cell phone running. It reminded me of campouts in the backyard as a kid, and I would definitely come back. George and Erin are easy to communicate with and their space is great for a weekend away to let go and sleep under the stars.

Everyone was really great at the site. Didn't get to meet Jared as he was getting married (Congrats!), but his family were very helpful in getting my camper pulled in and hooked up and offered plenty of help. Our neighbor, the full time camper, was also very friendly, but is super respectful of other's privacy. We also enjoyed meeting the farm dogs who were super friendly. Other than the occasional rooster crowing and protectors barking in the distance, it was very quiet and beautiful scenery all around. I'd absolutely stay here again in the future.
