- Voted best Hipcamp in Indiana for 7 years.
- Listed on Rachael Ray Magazine's "8 of America's Coolest Campgrounds"
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.

We stayed in one of the tiny glamping cabins and absolutely loved it. It is a simple little wooden box with a full-size bed you crawl into, and it ended up being the perfect cozy nest for the night. There was enough room to sit up, stash our gear, and our dog fit comfortably with us. It was a cold night, but our sleeping bags plus the structure kept us warm, and the sound of rain on the tin roof was unreal.
Check-in was easy and the cabin was simple to find. It was clean in that ideal glamping way: not spotless, just naturally rustic and comfortable.
The location is incredibly quiet and peaceful. We heard the occasional bit of road noise from a distant back country road, but nothing distracting. The sites are spaced far apart, so everything feels private.
The host was wonderful. They gave us plenty of space but were also happy to chat with my husband about permaculture and building ponds.
My favorite part of the stay was climbing into the web at night to look at the stars. It felt magical. The outhouse was also surprisingly nice, which was a great little bonus.
Would absolutely come back. This place just has something special! ✨

Weekend Trip to Happy Hollow Homestead
I was for years trying to sleep in a cottage like that and it finally happened. It was a pretty unique cottage, but the experience was good. Very happy with the place all around. Would recommend to others who like something different!. Great host, helpful and respectful.

Weekend Trip to Happy Hollow Homestead
We had an amazing experience staying at the cozy camping cottage at Happy Hollow Homestead! My favorite part was the tree web - there's something magical and therapeutic about being midair and surrounded by trees. We also enjoyed everything else at the homestead, from the friendly animals, the outdoor shower, to the natural surroundings. Kerry has been a fantastic host and responsive throughout booking and our stay. 10/10 would recommend!

The cozy cottage was perfect for a chilly evening. Kerry was a fantastic host and has some epic land. We will definitely be back to explore and see what else he has built on the land. If the maple syrup is available you should definitely indulge! Big plus that all the dogs on the property were so sweet.

Amazing property, we stayed overnight as a quick stop. The host was very welcoming, the directions were easy to follow. The outhouse had a sink with running and automatic lighting. Loved the hot shower in the morning. We wish we had more time to stay! We were even able to use the host's wifi, which was very nice as service can be spotty.

This little place was the greatest. Was the perfect size and atmosphere was wonderful. They had nice setup to be able to have a campfire or even grill outside. Cute little pond as well. The bed was so comfortable. Was just perfect for 2. If we ever got back to Louisville we would love to try and rent this place again. Thanks for a great weekend.

Me and my friends booked this place and it was amazing! It was our first time camping outdoor and didn’t know what to expect but this was everything we needed. Kerry was very accommodating! He provided us with fishing and canoeing places nearby. We went to one of the place which was only 11 minutes away. The canoeing was so much fun. I would totally recommend this place if you’re someone looking for a fun getaway with friends or family.

Kerry's homestead is fabulous. I'm an entomologist and he let me use some electricity to set up a collecting light at night. I spent most if not all of my time wandering around in the woods and watching my fire. No mosquitoes and an amazing number of fireflies.

Weekend Trip to Happy Hollow Homestead
The owner, Kerry, met us and showed us to our site. It was awesome. He gave us a quick tour of the property so we would be able to find our way around. Kerry pointed out some key features toilet/shower, walking trails, property lines, etc. It was a good stay and I didn’t have any problems or issues. The owners dog wandered over to say hi which was awesome. I will stay here again.

Me and my partner thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Happy Hollow! The woodland is beautiful, the campsite was incredibly relaxing, and Kerry was an incredible, attentive host who helped guide us to our lot even at around 11PM. The site was deep enough in the forest to be wonderfully quiet, while also being not too bad from groceries/general stores in the nearby town. I will say, my partner was scared half to death during early morning when he heard an animal walking around - it turned out to be a very sweet dog named Jersey, who was so very excited to both give and receive snuggles. Definitely would recommend this spot!
