Stories from the community

1 night at The Kilns @ The Red River Gorge

Wonderful hosts provided information on the area and checked in to see how we were doing. Great location to explore all of the various activities within the Gorge. Would definitely stay again

2 nights at The LAAAAND (just you & 50 acres)

I don’t even know where to start! This property is absolutely gorgeous. The trail markers around the property show off some of the coolest spots, but even just relaxing by the fire pit was beautiful. Lots of wildlife sounds especially at night. The site is very secluded and feels like a backcountry camp! This is my favorite Hipcamp find so far! Will hopefully be back soon :)

Weekend Trip to Backwoods Hideaway

This site is so nice. It's the perfect spot to unwind and relax with your spouse or chill with your family. We were lucky enough to be there on the 4th of July (also my birthday) Aaron was so nice and invited us to his get together and fireworks. We had such a good time, and got to meet some of his family too. They were just as sweet and welcoming as Aaron, the all even made it a point to come tell me happy birthday too. His daughter and her husband were my favorite part of the weekend! She is so sweet and her husband is the same. We didn't really go exploring, as we just wanted a relaxing weekend, not exploring weekend. We did however venture to the little gas station down the road, they have really good food! We really just hung around and did whatever. It was so nice. The cabin is really nice, the host really has thought of everything in there. The bathroom is even outside, which really gave it an added touch of charm. He has completely stocked that place, he has everything a lady would need. The site itself was so beautiful, especially at night. It's really the perfect amount of off grid camping to disconnect, but enough convenience to create an amazing camp site. We will be back for sure!!

Weekend Trip to The Kilns @ The Red River Gorge

Very cute little camping spot next to a beautiful little pond. Owners were very kind and helpful. We had a really wonderful and relaxing time.

3 nights at Two Mile Glamping

This was our first HipCamp experience and we had a great weekend! The themed trailers were very cute and it was so nice to have a/c during the hot summer but still feel like your camping. The location was perfect for exploring the area, and the hosts are cool VW people so we felt right at home.

2 nights at HAYMARK FARMSTAYS Private RV Sites

The property was absolutely gorgeous. Beautiful sunsets. Rolling green fields. You will probably be visited by some cattle as they wander and graze, along with an adorable herd of little goats. The drive way is long, winding and hilly but worth it to get back at the edge of the open fields. The hosts were very sweet and accommodating. I wish we could have stayed longer!

3 nights at Farm and Forest

This place was amazing and Jennifer was so nice and accommodating. As a first time solo camper I felt very safe and relaxed. Definitely plan on camping there again.

1 night at Wildcat Creek Farm in Tyrone

Camping on Kevin’s land was an awesome way to end my trip! Kevin was incredibly helpful in picking out my site for the night and showing me all around the farm. The location on the river was awesome for a nice fire at night and to really feel at home with the nature of the area. The farm animals that would visit during the stay was also a very fun part of the stay. Very awesome spot!

3 nights at The Kilns @ The Red River Gorge

Excellent site, very friendly and accommodation hosts. Would recommend!!

2 nights at Wildcat Creek Farm in Tyrone

We loved our time at Keven’s place! The animals were so fun to see roaming around- our kids got a huge kick out of it. The creek was fun to hike in and kept us cool. Keven was great about checking in, but giving us our space.

2 nights at Wildcat Creek Farm in Tyrone

My wife, three boys and our dog really enjoyed our camping trip and meeting Keven! He was so hospitable and was so helpful in making sure we had a great time. We picked the campsite closest to the creek as our boys wanted to explore and hike with our pup. Even with the heat wave, our boys had a great time with all the mini-horses, donkeys and “Kong” (you’ll have to visit to learn about that 😁). Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and thank you, Keven!

1 night at Three Springs Campground RV Park

Nice place, friendly hosts. Bathrooms were very clean and spacious!!

1 night at Three Springs Campground RV Park

Nice vibe very friendly host nice bathrooms and nice shower area

Weekend Trip to Possum Ridge Ranch

My family loved camping at the Peachtree site. It felt secluded even though we were just down the path from the amenities that families need. The views on the farm were breathtaking and we enjoyed the feeling of privacy we had at our site. The kids are already talking about coming back.

Weekend Trip to Farm and Forest

Great spot no problems would recommend generous host! Communication great could not of asked for a better spot next to the city!

Weekend Trip to Farm and Forest

Great host. Very responsive. Enjoyed the stay. Thanks again for accommodating our group. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to Farm and Forest

We had a great time exploring the property & were amazed that such a place exists so close to the city. It’s the perfect place if you have an event in Lexington. Creek Peek is a very spacious site and feels secluded despite being just a short walk into the woods. We especially enjoyed the shade and ambiance of the creek! The bathroom is a plus & the hosts were super friendly. Thank you!!

Weekend Trip to The Kilns @ The Red River Gorge

Nice little place. Would be great for a concert. The frog sang to us all night. Porta-potties were clean.

Weekend Trip to Farm and Forest

I had a wonderful stay tent camping on the electrical stage. The shade provided by the roof, flat ground, and three walls surrounding my tent made for a perfect site to set everything up! Having outlets on the walls at this site was a really nice added perk. This hosts land is very nicely maintained, they provided wonderful amenities such as Porta potties, spigot water, a fire pit, an indoor toilet, and a hot water shower. The communication was great. Detailed directions to the property were sent to me before my arrival, and any questions I had were answered clearly and promptly. Given the easy and short 15 minute drive to city and the amazing experience I had while staying here, I will definitely be back again when visiting Lexington!

Weekend Trip to Possum Ridge Ranch

The best all around experience you could ask for! We had essentially a whole hilltop to ourselves, with beautiful views of both the sunset and sunrise. The grass was cut, area clean, and the closest neighbors were about a 1/4 mile away - which allowed our dog to have a great and unbothered time. The water spicket right in the campsite was a bonus! Not far up the road were full bathrooms with showers, and a very nice common area with games and amenities for anyone. The hosts were communicative and friendly, it’s very clear they take care of this place. A great time and we hope to return!
