"CONTACT HOST" BEFORE BOOKING if site says no availability or you need longer stay, discount or you are confused by process. Don't fret about exact site unless you want a special one - sites are affected by weather changes, eg downpours. We are a delightfully funny almost 5 acre farmstead built by Swedish Pioneers in 1876. Our Hipcamp was started in 2023. We have a variety of areas for vehicles, tents and small campers midst leaning trees and funky old farm buildings. Fenced paddocks to run free.

Our family of creature can mingle if you wish. VERY SAFE. Very popular with solo travelers cuz we have gates.

PARK AT YOUR CAMPSITE RUN WILD AND FREE at sites in the acre paddocks with 5' fencing MORE MESSAGING THAN USUAL. Beverly, Human Host, must know ahead when to unlock the gate and help you get settled.
