7 nights at Cedar Fire farm: Kamp kessa

We used this spot as a home base for our yearly hunting trip. It was perfect for what we needed. Everyone on the farm was friendly and welcoming! You’ll get to know the horses and cats as they wander around the farm and sometimes come up to you to say hello. The cabin was a great common area and place to wind down after a long day of being out in the woods.

Weekend Trip to Still Waters Campground

We ended up at Still Water’s on accident after having a blowout on one of our camper tires and changing it on side of the interstate in the dark! This was the closest campsite we could get to. It was dark when we arrived, but we were able to book a site online and get some good rest after a stressful night. The next morning we saw the beautiful spot by the creek and met Tracy, the campground manager. She was extremely kind and helpful, and even offered us a spare tire. We ended up staying another night just to relax and enjoy the peaceful setting.

This little place was the greatest. Was the perfect size and atmosphere was wonderful. They had nice setup to be able to have a campfire or even grill outside. Cute little pond as well. The bed was so comfortable. Was just perfect for 2. If we ever got back to Louisville we would love to try and rent this place again. Thanks for a great weekend.

The land was beautiful and D was very nice. Unfortunately we could only stay 1 of the 5 days because the grass wasn't cut. She did mention she had to leave town while we were at her property. We don't hold that against her at all. She was nice and communicated with us as much as she could. We would totally stay there if the grass was cut down in the designated spaces.

This spot was fantastic! We were able to run our generator all night to keep the heat going without bothering anyone because the spot was so secluded. The pups were able to bark and run, it was so perfect, we stayed a couple extra days! The host was super! We will definitely be back next time we pass through KY!
