Site 6 was incredibly beautiful and private (there are only neighbors on one side). The "campground" is very small - only 6 sites. There is unfortunatley some rubbish (rusty trailers, wood pallet stacks, old lawnmowers and other garbage) near the site... but if you just don't look that way - the gorgeous water/woods views make you forget all about that! There was a porta-potty, which was nice to have available. There is also a small bar/restaurant on site, which was surprisingly good!! One of the best burgers, my burger snob husband, has ever had. The catfish dinner was also incredible.

Amazing as always! We had a group of 50 there in all types of camping (campers, tents, treehouses, etc). Everyone had a great time and we were able to both gather as a group and have some fruitful family time. Looking forward to coming back!

True definition of secluded in nature. Was able to get in the creek and follow for miles all directions. Crystal clear waters flowing from up top and all the history it carries with it! Nothing but the sounds of deer calls for bed down, owls, the wind and the trees speaking to you, and stars at night. It was definitely a heavy feeling to have to leave, but I can’t wait to get back again this season and do some more exploring.
I will say this is a primitive campers advantage for sure. The wind up in the mountain can cut and rain can come in at any moment. Temps about 10 degrees or so colder than actual. I prefer cold weather camping myself but if you’re not confident in your primitive skills, I’d stay to the warmer months. All in all, can’t wait to get back to this 125 acre beauty. Thank you for sharing what you have with us!

Excellent place to unwind and relax! We opted to camp in the field under a star filled sky. It was a beautiful and relaxing evening. The community barn is top notch! We can’t wait to stay again!

Jessa and Nathan have created a beautiful space for quiet, and community. We stayed four years ago and were amazed at all they've accomplished in that time. We've camped both times and loved our experience. Next time we'd love to stay in one of the thoughtfully built structures.

We tent camped for one night, but wish we had time to stay longer! Fantastic hosts and amazing amenities. Close to great hiking at The Pinnacles and fun times exploring Berea. The area is beautiful, quiet and exactly what we were looking for in a quick break away from the city. We highly recommend and hope to return someday!

My kids and I had a wonderful time over their fall break at Homegrown Hideaways. I cannot recommend it enough! It’s perfect for any level of camping, from primitive sites to BYO RV to renting one or staying in a treehouse or a yurt or in our case the Nook bunkhouse. Everything was super clean and the chefs kitchen was a godsend for making hot meals. It’s a choose your own adventure kind of place— cook over a fire if you want— there’s firewood and starter, or just make s’mores and cook the rest of your food inside. Bringing our own food and having fridge and freezer space to store it made it possible to have a very delightful and economical 4 night stay! Jessa and Nathan work really hard to make the place accessible and welcoming. They’re wonderful people! My kids really enjoyed rock hounding in the creek beds, hiking around the property, and playing board games in the game room. We would definitely return and have already recommended it highly to everyone we’ve met since. The other campers we met while there were all also very kind and fun to hang out with! Jessa and Nathan were very accommodating and wonderful hosts.
