Sycamore Bay Woods on Grand Lake

5 sites · Tents25 acres · Wyandotte, OK

The land here has had human occupation for 25000 years. I have about 22 acres situated along highway 10 on one side and grand lake on the other.. The land is situated between 2 fault lines (in what is called the "Seneca Graben". Learn more about this land: Plenty of open campsite possibility to choose from. Clearings have been made on edge of woods most of which have lake frontage in addition to the 5 sites that I have cleared so far back closer to highway. There is a dry creek that floods in the spring that cuts across the property diagonally. It has been used as a bison and mammoth trap and kill site for centuries on sycamore creek and my arrowhead collection is almost entirely from here. Historians say humans have been settled into this area for 25000 years as it was important confluence of neosho and spring rivers called grand river that met sycamore creek . Since prehistory, humans have used the dry creek beds to spook animals away from their water holes - up the fastest escape thru creek only to fall on their pikes in the pits they dug out.

The Sims Family Farm

8 sites · RVs, Tents30 acres · Miller, MO

We have spent years here at our farm getting it to a picturesque park like setting. Situated on just 30 acres you will get to interact with some of the friendliest and lovable farm animals around such as the miniature donkey, free range chickens and ducks, and even some goats. The livestock on the farm can vary from time to time. The beautiful stary nights are simply spectacular along with seeing the fireflies at certain times of the year as well as getting to see some of the majestic wildlife that like to call our property theirs. We have seen an abundance of deer, some turkey, raccoons, squirrels, rabbits, and the occasional coyote and bobcat and lots of birds including an occasional visit from a bald eagle. We are just minutes away from Robert E. Talbot conservation area where there are lots of trails to enjoy. We are only a few miles from a small airport that offers skydiving on the weekends seasonally. Springfield is about 30 minutes away, Branson is about an hour away and is a well known tourist location with some shows including some of America's Got Talent runners up and many other shows. We are only a couple minutes away from old Route 66 where there are a lot of neat little places that commemorate Route 66. We are nestled just a short 25 minute drive from Stockton lake where there is some amazing fishing. If you are looking to get back to nature and enjoy what mother nature has provided this is the place for you.
