A great spot and a great host. Probably the most unique spot we’ve camped with our van. Matthew is great with communications, his tours, and is very accommodating. What he has and is creating here is very impressive.

Weekend Trip to Glamping the Flint Hills

We stayed one night at Steve and Sharon’s land during our road trip from Nebraska to Kansas, and it was such a lovely experience! My children absolutely loved it — especially the Yut, fireplace and adorable, friendly horses that my younger son couldn’t get enough of. The Yut was spotless, cozy, and very comfortable. It was so beautiful in the night under the moon and stars. We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this place to anyone!

Amazing. Matt was the bomb. So smart, so intelligent, so motivated about his project— his vision and the work he has done is a miricle. The tour is a must. Treat yourself and stay here. After the tour and as campers settled in Matt build a huge fire pit fire. He joined the campers for fabulous conversation and more info about his project.

We stayed in the yurt and it was awesome! We enjoyed not having to set up a tent and it was already set up and the inside was very nice! We were on the way to Colorado so glad we found this place! They were very responsive and very helpful. We chatted with Steve for a little while when we got there after he showed us back to the campsite. He is very friendly and would highly recommend!

I loved our glamping experience! As a family of 4 with 2 people having high medical needs this was perfect. Having literally everything we needed already at the site was so thoughtful and made our trip stress free. With access to electricity and running water we had everything we needed and even with pouring rain we had an incredible time.

Easy to get to off the highway for a one night stay and then back on the road. The host greeted us kindly when we arrived and we parked in the tent area. We car camped in the back of our SUV. The toilet was a little far to walk, especially in the middle of the night for me and my child. maybe they can add one closer? It was a peaceful and idyllic and we saw fireflies.

Matthew and his dog Dozer were very welcoming to us. He gave us a tour of the campsite and the place was amazing! He keeps up the property and is refurbishing the military structures. He built a fire and created a way for us to meet our neighbors. Best camping ever!
