We needed a safe night in Kansas during a cross country road trip with a dog. Tom’s site was perfect! Never thought Kansas would be so pretty.
Tom met us and guided us to the camp spots where we could park our camper. He had already made a fire for us and we cooked dinner over the fire watching the moonrise. Our dog loved running free in the field and gathering sticks while we sat by the fire. It was quiet (except for turkeys in the field), safe for the dog and everything we needed for a great sleep.
Absolutely recommend!

Gina is a fantastic host with a just as fantastic glamping experience! She made sure we were well taken care of and comfortable. This is definitely for someone who wants to have a more camp-like experience without having to bring your own tent or sleeping arrangements. Gina provided us with more than enough supplies for our stay and was on top of any requests we had. The lake on site was a beautiful addition to the scenery. I would 100% recommend this stay for any outdoors lovers or those who are looking to experience the outdoors.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. It was much more than we expected. Our host was very accommodating & was kind enough to give us a tour of his planes, which was a special treat for my husband being a pilot. The property is beautiful & quiet. The hosts have and continue to make improvements such as a compost toilet & shower building. There are picnic tables & a beautiful fire ring with firewood provided. We had 2-3 bars of Verizon, which was plenty for us. We only spent 1 night, but this will definitely be on our list to return to, especially with it being so convenient to I-70.
