What to expect lodging at Mustang Sally's:
Mustang Sally's offers glamping sites, primitive camping sites and small camper sites. In the future, the plan is to add RV sites and full service cabin sites.
The most common question is "What is Glamping?" Well, glamping is glorified camping. Glamping has real beds and other comforts of home but in the camping setting.
Non-Glamping sites are available for tents, pop-ups, trucks & van camping. Motorhomes are not allowed at this time. The goal is by end of summer to have tree height cleared in main driveway to allow clearance for RV/Motorhomes.
Currently there are no shower facilities as of May 2024. Outhouses are available. Mustang is currently working on what will be called "Bath Row" with the plan of them being finished by July 1, 2024. Bath row will consist of 10 restroom units. Each unit will have it's own private toliet, shower and changing area.
Camp Fires are allowed within the fire rings provided at each camp site. Please keep them under control and make sure they are totally out before leaving the camp site.
Check in time is 3pm EST
Check out is 11am EST.
Quiet time is 10 PM to 7 AM
Trash cans are located throughout the park. Please tie trash bags completely closed and put your trash completely in the trash container. If the first can is full, please find another container. Please do not place your trash on the ground. Possums and racoons are attracted to left out or disposed of food and while we think they are cute and wonderful animals, we don’t want you to find a surprise in the night of a visiting racoon at your site because of incorrectly disposed of trash!
Feel free to bring your own bike. Riding bicycles on our main entrance road is prohibited for the safety of your children and our incoming guests.
You are able to ride them everywhere else on the property, just not the main driveway.
Cancelling your reservation on the day of or within 7 days prior to arrival will result in no refund. Cancelling your reservation 8 to 14 days prior to arrival, you will be refunded half of your total stay. Cancellations 15 or more days will receive a full refund minus a $15 processing fee.
There will be no refunds after you have checked in, for inclement weather, failure to follow the Rules & Regulations, or disorderly conduct. Manager/Owner reserves the right to have discretion on all refunds.

It was great! The ambiance at night was incredible. We had crappy weather while we were there (rained 4 of the 5 days 😅) but we still had a great time. The yurt made the trip doable even with the rain. We’ll definitely be back!

Absolutely wonderful! The camp is beautiful, even at the end of the season. 2 of the 5 of us had never camped before and it was all 3 kids favorite place we stayed (over 6 nights throughout Michigan, a different town each day). The host was positively amazing and extremely kind. We will be back for sure.

My partner and I took our three teenage nephews (and dog) and we had the most fun, peaceful weekend at Blooming Bus Farms. This was the perfect place for nature lovers who enjoy some comforts of home. Melissa was incredibly accommodating and quick to respond, and made us feel welcome before setting foot on the land. She let us meet their sweet and funny alpacas, which was a real treat for us city dwellers. The entire property is enchanting and our campsite truly became our home for a couple days. We will be coming back for a couple’s trip, and the boys are already asking if we can take them again. 10 out of 10!

The Hruby Ranch was everything we were hoping for and more. You can tell immediately that there is a lot of love put into the property. It is very well maintained and easy to do our overnight getaway, having comforts of home and still outdoor camping feeling. Seeing both sunset and sunrise from our site was so special. The animals were our kiddos favorite along with the trampoline!
Thank you Tom and Ally for the hospitality, we hope to make this at least an annual getaway.

2 nights at Blooming Bus Farms
My girlfriend and I stayed 2 nights at Blooming Bus Farms and had the best time. The yurt was cozy and super comfortable, and the farm itself has this laid-back, peaceful vibe that makes you instantly slow down. Feeding the alpacas was hands-down the highlight (they’ve got serious personality). We left feeling recharged, laughing, and already talking about when we’ll come back.

Our family had an absolute blast stay at the Blooming Bus farms! We loved roaming through the beautiful garden, played volleyball, basketball, fed alpacas & walked the paths. We’d highly recommend this place and will definitely be back. We booked the site with the kitchenette which definitely had the best bathroom setup. We loved sleeping in the bell tent- the beds were comfy! There’s string lights inside as well a small generator to charge phones. I can’t think of any complaints minus the fact that you can hear traffic noise but I know that’s completely out of their control. Melissa is a great host! The space is so beautiful and relaxing and was a real treat to be able to stay for a few nights with our family from out of town who booked another bell tent just a short walk away ❤️

Loved the campsite, the decorations and welcome sign with flowers for us was so nice! Loved the set up and they thought of all the logistics! Very friendly and fast to respond when I had questions. Took my back a day to adjust to the blow up mattress but the second night slept better. Loved the decor in the tent and amenities. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing time at this campsite! The amenities were top-notch – everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully laid out. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home.
Our kids had an absolute blast – they spent lots of time playing basketball and were completely enchanted by the alpacas! Feeding them was a highlight of the trip and made for some great memories (and photos!).
It’s not always easy to find a place that ticks all the boxes for both adults and kids, but this campsite really nailed it. Peaceful, fun, and full of little touches that made our stay special. We’ll definitely be back!

Tent
Best part is the location. It’s walking distance to tons of restaurants, and bike stations are just around the corner, making it super easy for us to explore the city . The tent setup itself was extremely comfortable and well thought out clean, cozy, and stylish inside . Wonderful landscaping. We felt safe the entire time , and really enjoyed how accessible everything was . You’re right in the city , so it’s definitely not silent at night but they thoughtfully provide earplugs, and we were still able to sleep well. That said , this is urban camping , just like it says in the listing . Just come in with the mindset that it’s camping but in the middle of Chicago and you ll love it. If you re looking for a city adventure with a twist , this is a fantastic option.
Things we brought that helped make our stay more comfortable.
* Ended up buying a box fan at the Walgreens across the street, since it was the middle of summer.
* Sound machine for sleeping
