1 night at Nightfall Farm

We enjoyed how quiet and private the cabin was. Very friendly host, explained everything well. Heated blanket came in handy on a chilly night! Enjoyed the well appointed outdoor kitchen and very clean composting toilet.

2 nights at Camp Escape

This is a great spot outside of the city! I stayed here two nights with my two cats and we felt safe and comfortable. There is a train that goes by and is pretty loud in the night and during the day. It didn't bother me much but just something to know. I am so happy I found this spot and if I go through KY again, I will be staying here again! Porta potty was super clean and close by. Other than the train, this spot is quiet and so peaceful with the sound and sight of beautiful birds. Highly recommend this spot if you're looking to camp near Louisville!

Weekend Trip to Camp Escape

its a nice little camp site a stream next to you and a park just a short drive

Weekend Trip to Camp Escape

Shelby’s space was really nice, not too far from the city, and conveniently close to Jefferson memorial. The sites are a little closer together than I thought, but they were not all full so we still had plenty of privacy. The creek behind the campsite was perfect for our dogs. I was under the impression that there were trails to explore from the campsite, there were not. Scott’s gap loop was a great trail about a mile drive away that we did the following morning. They had firewood on site for $8 a bucket! The property itself was gorgeous, amazing sunset. It was a little noisy with the train and neighbors, but not too bad. It was super nice to only drive 30 minutes to an awesome campsite.

Weekend Trip to Happy Hollow Homestead

Kerry’s Happy Hollow Homestead was a great place to meet up with a friend to camp for the weekend and celebrate the beginning of spring! The property is well thought out and completely off-grid and sustainable. Visiting the pigs was a fun interaction. The sky was clear and perfect for star gazing. There’s a trail on the perimeter of the land. Plenty of caves nearby for exploring as well! Kerry has done a great job being a steward of the land. Talking to him and learning more about the permaculture techniques that he uses was a highlight of our visit! We car camped at one of the tent/RV sites for two nights. I highly recommend this peaceful place for anyone looking to escape into nature and connect with the land! Thank you Kerry!

3 nights at Happy Hollow Homestead

Kerry's property was everything we had hoped for. Kerry was the BEST host and we will for sure be back. The outdoor shower was the bees knees

I loved camping on Kerry's land! It was a great experience and I can't wait to go back!

1 night at Camp Escape

Access was private and easy, the land was lovely! We had everything we needed!

1 night at Camp Escape

This tucked away camper was perfect for our roadtrip. We had a fantastic stay at Off Grid Van Life in Louisville! There was plenty of room, both in the van, and on the property, it felt private and peaceful, despite its proximity to the train tracks. The bathroom was clean and everything was super convenient and simple. We loved waking up to lots of bird activity in the morning and enjoyed the nearby stream. We hiked at Scott’s Gap just a few minutes away, which was a great bonus. 5/5 would definitely visit again!

Weekend Trip to Nightfall Farm

A unique cabin on a farm! Perfect for a weekend get-away from the city or suburbs. Liz greeted me at dusk and introduced me to the space with a tour of the outdoor kitchen (stocked with cooking supplies, close to water, covered, convenient eating are, easy to use camping stove…), outhouse (clean with composting toilet and a view into the woods), and a spacious unique cabin built with recycled materials and a perfect sunrise view on March mornings through the leafless trees! The electric space heater and electric blankets were very appreciated on cold nights along with a fire pit right near the front porch. Amazing hiking within 30 minutes that provided me with much needed ‘outside in nature’ time!! Highly recommend this Hipcamp site!

Weekend Trip to Nightfall Farm

What stood out more than anything else really was the hospitality. Liz was super warm and friendly , responsive to messages and accommodated our needs and asks. If going on a super chilly night, might consider taking or asking for an additional heater. It was 19 degrees during our stay and our heater couldn’t keep up. Thankfully the heated blankets kept our bodies warm!

Weekend Trip to Nightfall Farm

It's like visiting an old friend. No amount of money could offer the feeling this place gave, from the warm welcome to the colorful personality of the farm cat. It was perfect. Would highly recommend, and Liz and Nate will definitely see us again.

Weekend Trip to Cabins at Guthrie Meadows

We loved staying in the cabin! It was easy to access, and very cozy, perfect for our group of 6. Glad we brought warm clothes since it took a while to get warm but eventually was very cozy inside. The hosts were extremely friendly and helped us find the cabin. We especially loved petting and feeding the horses!

Weekend Trip to Nightfall Farm

I loved my spur of the moment decision to get outta town (Cincinnati) and be in nature. I chose Nightfall Farm randomly. Ok, well I’m a newbie at the outdoors thing and I knew the Sunrise Cabin had a space heater AND heated blanket. But the camping Gods were watching over me that day! I mean, the bed was so comfortable, I’m mad I’m not still there!! It rained all night and to hear it on the tin roof . BONUS! But I digress! Liz, the host was great. She brought the wood over to the cabin even though I think we were both wondering if I would only need 1/2 of what I asked for! lol, I loved it there and will definitely be back in the spring. Nature cures everything!!

4 nights at Camp Escape

My first time using Hipcamp and did not not know what to expect but camp escape has nice large sites and really close to town for any supplies you would need. I would most definitely stay there again and refer it to everyone else that enjoys camping

2 nights at Nightfall Farm

We loved staying in the cabin! It was clean and cozy, and we were comfortable even when it got very cold at night. We loved the outdoor kitchen and had everything we needed to make ourselves a nice meal. It was the perfect compromise between camping and a lodge. Liz and her family were excellent hosts, and we’re looking forward to going back!

Weekend Trip to Nightfall Farm

Liz and Nate were so kind and helpful. Their farm and land is beautiful to spend a cozy weekend at the cabin, take long walks through the forest, and visit their animals. We forgot some food and they so kindly helped us out so we didnt have to go to the market. The cabin was such a dream. We both slept better than we had in months. We loved the outdoor firepit at night and it was so fun to cook in their outdoor kitchen. Highly recommend buying eggs from their farm. super delicious. I honestly cant say enough wonderful things about the time we spent at nightfall farm. Highly recommend if you need time to get away- replenish, nourish, and restore!
