My family settled on this plot of land at the turn of the century, moving west in a covered wagon. And aside from a brief time in the late 80's it has been in our family ever since. For most of the 20th century the property was a small farm, grazing cattle and mowed for bailing hay. We are trying to rejuvenate the property and breathing some new life into this old plot of land.
Learn more about this land:
The Hill, aptly named, is a hilltop that slopes down to a large pond that divides the twenty acre property in two. With plenty of room to stretch your legs you can enjoy a nature walk. In the evening enjoy the night sky around one of several fire rings, while roasting marshmallows. Easy access and only a quarter mile from the main road.

For more information about this "best kept secret," feel free to call or visit us!
Construction of Lake Frances began in 1994 to help mitigate occasional flooding in the Fort Scott area, and it was completed in 1997. The project faced a one-year delay due to a wetland area roughly the size of an average house. Today, the lake boasts a permanent pool of 43 acres, which expands to nearly 80 acres during wet seasons. Nestled on 160 acres of land in the picturesque Flint Hills of southeast Kansas, Lake Frances is a perfect spot for outdoor enthusiasts.
Since being stocked with finger-length fish in 1998, the lake has become a popular fishing destination. Anglers can catch impressive Bass measuring up to 22 inches, Catfish weighing as much as 14 pounds, and Crappie reaching 1.5 pounds. With a concrete boat ramp and dock, Lake Frances is well-equipped for fishing and boating activities.

Amazing experience with an RV for our family of 4! We rented an RV for the 1st time and found Base Camp as a comprehensive site that had every amenity you could think of. There is full hook-up for RV's and full service cabins. The property is beautiful and extremely well kept. Very relaxing. It is conveniently located walkable to downtown Humboldt. During the cold days, there was a space to hang out with tables, chairs, games, and a pool table. There are bikes to use on the trial, rentable e-bikes, and firewood available for purchase to use in the innumerable fire pits across the property. The kids spent a lot of time on the pond in kayaks and paddle boats. Additionally, while we were there, there was a wood-fired sauna we used which was incredible. The best part of the experience was getting to know Jon. He is an AMAZING host. So kind and informative to our family. He made us feel truly at home. We will 100% be back!
