Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to Willow Pond

Megan was phenomenal, even before we booked! She was kind and responsive to all our questions. The site was perfect! Pictures do not do it justice. The fishing was phenomenal! Our arrival day was pretty windy following some rough storms. Even in the high winds, the fish were biting! The site is positioned in a way where the sunrise hits perfectly through the entrance of the site making for an almost magical morning. This was my son’s first camping trip. He’s already asking when we can return.

Weekend Trip to Willow Pond

We had such a blast and Megan was wonderful and very responsive. Easy to find. Well thought out. It was out first HipCamp experience and we are hooked. Thank you!

Weekend Trip to Cabins at Guthrie Meadows

The camping and arrangements are really nice. Will go and go again. The hosts are amazing.

3 nights at Hones Pointe Campground

Steve's land was clean, clearly marked, and welcoming. Lots of space in between primitive sights with many right alongside the river. Steve was very helpful. Would definitely camp there again.

Weekend Trip to Bourbon Trail Campground

Great host and enjoyed a private spot! Definitely recommend.

Weekend Trip to Happy Hollow Homestead

This was an amazing place! We will definitely be going back. Kerry has put so much work into in the campsites and the trails. You have to check it out!

2 nights at Happy Hollow Homestead

I stayed in the A-frame with my dog for 2 nights. The A-frame is better than camping on the ground as it has a queen sized mattress inside; however, there's no door on the A-frame yet so I got a little wet when it rained and the shower near our campsite was not working. Kerry offered the other site to me, which was 10 bucks cheaper, but I really liked the location of the A-frame. In hindsight, I think we would have been better off at the other site that has a door and is closer to the working shower. Kerry is a friendly host who works hard to maintain the land and live sustainably. He recommended a gorgeous hike to Hemlock Cliffs, which was really the highlight of our stay. I loved being close to nature for a few days to defrag my brain.

1 night at River Side Camp On Working Ranch

Really beautiful spot on a river. So private and relaxing. Christopher was very nice and his communication was great!

Weekend Trip to Happy Hollow Homestead

Beautiful property, abundant room for large groups, & plenty of cool things to explore

Weekend Trip to Buck Creek Sanctuary

Beautiful property. Cares for with passion and purpose. Will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Hones Pointe Campground

If you're looking for a hidden gem in Kentucky, this campground is it! Nestled along the serene banks of the Little Kentucky River, the views are absolutely breathtaking — the kind that make you want to just sit quietly and soak it all in. The river winds gently past the campground, perfect for fishing, swimming, and kayaking. We spent a couple hours exploring the shore. The land itself is beautifully cared for, with open fields that stretch into shady patches of old trees, and a few small trails that invite you to wander. Everything feels thoughtfully maintained — you can tell love and pride go into keeping this place beautiful. We had a fantastic fire under the stars, with plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the night air. A highlight was definitely the petting zoo, where we got to meet some adorable goats and miniature horses. Scattered around the grounds were also some lovely minerals and rocks giving it a touch of wonder and discovery. The owner was warm and welcoming. He seemed genuinely happy to have us there, and ready to help with anything we needed. He made the whole experience feel even more special. There are electric and water hookups available,just in case you have an RV.

Weekend Trip to Buck Creek Sanctuary

This land is so sacred. I experienced so much healing and magic here. Thank you buck creek sanctuary!! 10000/10

2 nights at Camp Escape

Camp Escape lived up to its name! A fantastic property teeming with nature, yet still right within reach of the city. Shelby is very kind, helpful, and made us feel right at home. Our campsite was just the right size, a personal haven, providing the peace and quiet we were craving.The provided firepit and level land made setting up a breeze - even during a massive downpour! It was exactly the what we needed. If you're looking for a quiet and safe camp experience without roaming too far from Louisville, look no further! We definitely recommend Camp Escape!

1 night at Camp Escape

Last minute travel to Louisville to catch a concert, decided to camp instead of getting a hotel. Only 17 minutes away from our show. Super relaxed place to stay, even had firewood. Easy in and out + gate provided security.

Weekend Trip to MoonLight Grove Farm

Weekend Trip to Hones Pointe Campground

Great site! Clean and friendly. We will definitely return!

5 nights at Bourbon Trail Campground

Great site location! Amazing hosts. Couldn’t have asked for a better week!

1 night at Cabins at Guthrie Meadows

This was a same day booking from a changed route plan in our trip. Although we got there after dark, the directions to get to the cabin were clear and lights were left on to help. The place is as described and very charming. We arrived at 11pm and were able to start a fire, relax, and let the dogs out and wind down. The loft was great for our 14 year old and the queen bed was comfy.

Weekend Trip to Camp Escape

Good site near the creek. One porta potty provided for all the campsites. The site is right next to train tracks. Site was mowed recently and we had a fire pit. $8 wood available. "Secluded" campsite phrasing was an overstatement.

Our farm is surrounded by the Hoosier National Forest, so you'll see and hear plenty of wildlife too.
