Stories from the community

Relax here! New hammock chairs, padded adirondack chairs and a sweet smokeless fire pit!

Weekend Trip to Apple acres

My family had a wonderful time while visiting Apple Acres. It is close to town for shopping but far out enough that you can sit outside to enjoy nature without hearing the typical city noise. The site is well maintained, beautiful, peaceful, and quiet. For my family it has the perfect mix of rustic living with modern conveniences. The whole family including our furbabies felt welcome and would love to visit again.

Weekend Trip to Celtic Glen Farm Stay

We camped & did a farm tour & coffee with the goats, Leslie & Phil were so accommodating and we really enjoyed our stay!

Weekend Trip to Heavenly Acres Creekside Camp

My daughter wanted to celebrate her birthday with friends at this site. The camping site for tents was great. The kids enjoyed the farm tour and being able to do chores with Jennifer and Forrest who are so friendly and patient.

Weekend Trip to Celtic Glen Farm Stay

Amazing place. Private camps and really great hosts. Close to a lot of fun stuff. The whole family wants to come back again soon!

2 nights at Apple acres

We loved camping at apple acres. We were the only campsite on the farm. it was very peaceful, and comfortable. The site had a lovely ambiance. The adarandack chairs, the hanging hammock chairs, the lighting... everything has the touch of a host who is passionate about the experience of their guests. My kids enjoyed the pond and paddle boat. I enjoyed the trails and the historical of the apple trees.

Weekend Trip to Havendell Farm and Wayside

I had a great experience car camping on Dave’s property! It was peaceful and quiet, easy to find, and the portable toilet and water station were a great plus! The tent sites look cute and well laid out, I will definitely be returning to try them out!

2 nights at Basic Acres

I felt really good about staying here, super friendly service and set the reservation up the day of arrival with no issues. We were just two adults camping, but this site would be perfect for families!

4 nights at Havendell Farm and Wayside

We have stayed several times and this stay did not disappoint. It's clean, quiet, we feel very safe and the owners are great. Dave's location is easy to get to and close enough for easy on and off the highway. The view is great wide open fields and woods to enjoy. The horses, farm animals and flowers are very easy to enjoy. We will go back each time we are in the area. We give them a 10++ and would recommend to anyone that is in the area and looking for a nice place to stay, one night or several nights. Thank you again for a nice stay!!!

Weekend Trip to Celtic Glen Farm Stay

The place is beautiful! Lots of wildflowers and birds. Felt very secluded. The property (an old quarry) is so interesting to explore!

Weekend Trip to Leanin' Post Farm

Donna and her family are very quiet and super kind. She was willing to help us setup and made sure we got parked safely and made sure we knew how to hookup everything. Very pleasant stay for us. We really enjoyed hearing all the farm animals in their environment. We definitely would stay here again!

Weekend Trip to Palafox Paradise

Another great stay! We love staying here for our annual family trip to the Indy 500!

Weekend Trip to Apple acres

We loved camping at Apple Acres! The reviews here saying that it was better than expected are absolutely correct. The carport was excellent for our little pop up (no need to bring our additional canopy) and we loved the hammock chairs and firepit. The sink area and porta-potty nearby were helpful (the flush toilets aren't too far, but it's nice to have a closer option at night). Improvements had been made even since some of the photos, including a firewood shelter. (NOTE: Don't sleep on the firewood across the road! You get a LOT for $10 and it's the best firewood we have used!) Starter wood and newspaper was even ready to go in the firepit before we got there. Jonathan and his family were very welcoming and helpful - even when our electric went out at almost Midnight and we had to wake him! Jonathan graciously came out and replaced the outlet entirely so that we could sleep warm (and so my husband could use his cpap!). Our kids enjoyed the dirt bike track even without bikes - especially our 5yo, who just loved playing in the dirt - and we liked the walking trails back in the forest, and the small pond and ducks. The only possible thing that could make this site better would be a shower, but we brought our own camp shower and it worked fine (on sunny days). We'll be back for sure!

Weekend Trip to Camp with Alpacas at Aris Farm

We really enjoyed the peaceful evenings listening to the frogs and sitting by the fire. We also loved talking with Tracy about her farm and her animals.

Weekend Trip to Celtic Glen Farm Stay

We had a wonderful time at this site. The site was well cared for and the owners were very responsive. Highly recommended. The Upper Vista site was great. The soil is kinda rocky, so be a little patient trying to stake your tent. Having a mallet definitely helped. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Creek’s Bend Camp

We had such a great time at Abby’s campsite! She went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable, even providing firewood and water, which made things super easy and convenient. The property had a peaceful vibe, and a bunch of friendly dogs came up to say hello — they were all so sweet and well-behaved, it really added to the charm of the place. You can tell Abby puts thought and care into hosting. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a relaxing, pet-friendly spot to unwind!

Weekend Trip to Laurita's Casa Vieja

They were very friendly and accommodating. Their land was very nice. I enjoyed everything second of my stay!

Weekend Trip to Camp with Alpacas at Aris Farm

My daughter and I camped at Tracy’s farm on our way back from touring the SouthWest, and we both loved it. The farm is beautiful and serene. Tracy was the most welcoming and generous host and introduced us to all the unique species of animals she cares for. It was wild to meet Alpacas up close! I would recommend camping here to everyone!

Weekend Trip to Celtic Glen Farm Stay

We really enjoyed camping with our teardrop in a secluded site. Hosts were very responsive, friendly and we loved the fresh eggs. Great location - we recommend going to the Bloomington farmers market on Sat mornings, McCormick state park and the brewpub (Civilian Brewing) in nearby Spencer IN.

3 nights at Neighbor Acres

This place and family are great people and they have my support anytime I come to this area. You can't go wrong.

3 nights at Celtic Glen Farm Stay

The cabin was perfect for hubby and I. We have gone twice now and plan on many more nights here! Great host, many adventures near and on site to enjoy!

Overland Camping at The 1938 Barn

Large secluded cove near our barn and garden. Watch the sun come up from the orchard. There is 1 electrical plug so not all 3 spaces have electric but you can run a cord. There is also a single water spigot to share as well. There are 2 houses somewhat visible through the trees but no direct line of sight and otherwise private. We have 2 dogs, Whiskey and Barb, Whiskey will usually keep her space but bark, if you ignore her she will be friendly, acts mean but never bites. Barbara is a Jack Russell. She will jump in the truck if you don't tell her not to and will happily run off with snacks. We ask you please don't feed them as it will teach them to come for food and some people don't appreciate the dogs.. This is a farm so you may see and smell animals. Depending on when you book you may even be somewhat near animals. Be aware of this and be ready to keep dogs contained. We typically run pigs in the woods around the cove but we move them regularly and keep the smell to a minimum by doing so. Ask us about purchasing a bag of fresh meat or veggies from our market garden. Follow us on Facebook @The1938Barn or visit our website at HenrysMarketIndiana.com
