Stories from the community

2 nights at Tar Springs 2

I loved camping at the cliffhanger! I stayed with my two dogs. It was quite hot out but our campsite stayed shady and cool! While our campsite was tucked away we were still just a couple minutes walk to a really nice and air conditioned bathroom! The cliffs provided a unique backdrop for our campsite.

1 night at Old Barn inside an Industrial Park

I had a lovely time camping at the barn. The hosts were incredibly kind and hospitable!

Weekend Trip to Tar Springs 2

A wonderful place for adventure and relaxation, I am very glad that we booked at Tar Springs 2. From well thought-out essentials and top cleanliness, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and even got sent home with some squash!

2 nights at Little Blue Horse Camp

My partner and I really enjoyed this little pocket of heaven. The property is well kept and if you enjoy rugged camping you will surely enjoy it here! The cabin and kitchen area is so lovely. There is a fridge and air conditioning for if you really need to cool off. The property has two perfect places to set up camp and a couple of wonderful trails that lead off of the camp itself. The neighbor off of the property has a cute dog and chickens where you can buy fresh eggs! It is so peaceful and calm at night all you can hear is the animals, the leave,the crickets,and that really loud toad but don't pay no mind to him.overall we really enjoyed are staying and we will be camping here again and did I mention this was are first time camping.

Weekend Trip to 15 Acre Wood on Lake

The hosts were very nice and answered all of our questions including greeting us when we got there. The property was very pretty with a lot of woods. We swam in the water it was nice, it wasn’t dirty but a little swampy so maybe not for everyone- but we had fun. The place where we put our tent (and the water) is relatively close to their house. This was no problem for us as we weren’t bothered by them(not that we would have been, again hosts were very pleasant) but might not be ideal for someone looking to camp completely away from others. Really cool town not far from camp site.

Weekend Trip to Tar Springs 2

The property is very well kept and the scenery is absolutely beautiful! The sites are spread out enough to give a better sense of privacy than most sites I've been to in the past. There is also a full bathroom available that has everything you need to stay comfortable. The sites that I stayed at was sheltered under a cliff that kept me slightly cooler than other sites might've and there and other sites on the bank of the pond that are shaded by trees in the afternoon. The hosts themselves are some of the most gracious and friendly human beings I've ever made contact with and they were extraordinarily accommodating to my entire party. I will absolutely be staying here again in the future!

Weekend Trip to Old Camp At Bear Hollow

Nice, well-maintained spot on the side of a quiet dirt road. The beautiful tall trees blocked Starlink, but we didn't mind.

Weekend Trip to Unplugged Acres

Camping in the woods at the second site was nice 👍 and secluded.

Weekend Trip to Unplugged Acres

Right when I got there, Natalie and her husband came out to greet me. They are wonderful hosts and very hospitable. I also had plenty of privacy in a campsite tucked away into the woods. I would definitely stay here again!

1 night at Tar Springs 2

Spacious land for camping, fishing and hiking. Free access to boats and canoes. Very clean Indoor bathroom and showers. Far enough out from city lights for night sky gazing or telescope viewing. Great for family or friends camping or event gatherings.

2 nights at Lake View camping

Our lake view camping trip was fantastic! We stayed in our camper and loved the stunning lake views and peaceful vibe. Our host, Bill, was incredibly helpful, guiding us to great spots and activities with a friendly attitude. My son had a blast fishing 🎣, reeling in tons of fish, and the kayaks were a fun bonus. The great vibes convinced us to extend our stay, and we’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend this gem!

1 night at Lake View camping

Clean, quiet, well cared for, felt very safe camping alone. Several amenities available. My fav place for a quick getaway.

1 night at Places of Sanctuary

Excellent stay! Hosts were so communicative and friendly. Directions were awesome. Great spot, we loved the chickens and ducks. Beautiful property. Thank you for having us. Would definitely stay again.

4 nights at Unplugged Acres

We loved camping on Natalie's land! We had planned it as a landing spot for some trips to Holiday World, with 1 day at camp, but I wish we'd allowed an extra day or two to just enjoy the campsite. It was so peaceful and Natalie and her husband were welcoming hosts. We were invited to grab some fresh lettuce and onions from the garden to add to our dinner which was a great experience for the kids. One thing that wasn't quite clear from the listing was the location of the stream. It's down a steep hill and out of sight of the campsite. Our kids still enjoyed playing down there, butI thought I would note it as if you are planning for it to be a part of your experience, you'll want to make sure you can navigate the hill and/or your children are able to play independently in that setting. Overall this was a great place to camp. It was peaceful and quiet at camp (pretty sure 99% of any noise came from our kids & dog!). At the same time, there were gas stations & towns 5-10 min away if we needed to get moreice or something. Natalie was so responsive before and throughout our stay and I am so appreciative of her & her husband's efforts in hosting.

Weekend Trip to Little Blue Horse Camp

“Perfect Little Spot” is an apt name. You can tell that a lot of thought was put into the details here. Angie was very kind and showed me the place. I couldn’t have asked for a better spot to camp and relax.

1 night at 15 Acre Wood on Lake

Great site next to a frog pond. Very lush and remote feeling. Camped in a tent and got rained on all night, but still had a great stay. Friendly host and a really cool spot!

Weekend Trip to Lake View camping

Site # 2 is where we stayed. There were lots of fish to catch! Communication with host was superb! Check in was smooth as well. When we arrived we were greeted by the camp host who answered all the questions we had and even let us borrow her coffee mug! Thanks Jenny 🥰. Firewood was available for purchase but no worms for bait. So come prepared with bait. Bathrooms were clean and the property was safe and peaceful.

Weekend Trip to Lake View camping

It was beautiful, peaceful and quiet. I will definitely tell people about it and I will be returning.

Weekend Trip to Lake View camping

We loved our time at Lake View Camping! Beautiful, clean, peaceful, and great fishing! Host and other campers were extremely nice and helpful. We will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Places of Sanctuary

It was a lovely place with lovely people running it. If I’m ever in the area again I will most certainly come back.

We are just normal people who love where we live. We ride horses right on the road, and just move to the side when a vehicle comes. We do what we want, and are who we are. Our values include a very deep faith and church on Sunday morning. We were born and raised Catholic, and Catholic is what we’ll stay. We don’t care what religion you are, we’re all living for the same God regardless of the church we attend, or don’t attend for that matter! You’ll know exactly what type of people we are when you leave, and we hope you’ll be so glad you came. We’ll feel blessed to have you!Learn more about this land:Too often we find ourselves so busy and overwhelmed trying to fulfill the obligations on today’s schedule as we search for a pen to jot down tomorrow’s commitments. Take a break, we’ll offer you the experience your looking for. Maybe it’s just the sound of no sound. You wonder what it’s like to sip your coffee as you walk to the barn on a quiet morning to check on the horses? Bring the golf cart or Ranger if your not big on walking. It’s your time to spend, so spend it however you want. Calliman is operated by Allison, a wife and mother to five girls. Surrounding the exterior edges of the land are the homes of Brock and Jennifer and their three children, Allison’s mother and father, Billy and Susie the landowners of Calliman Stables, and Allison’s family of seven! The barn, located in the near center of the farm is home away from home everyday. Most times we’re at the barn to care for the horses, but sometimes we’re there to saddle up and ride the horses. We have plenty of room, so bring yours too if you have them. We will gladly show you around, but you may enjoy exploring the acreage and showing yourself around, and we completely respect that! Your gonna love it here, but you’ll have to leave it so that you’ll appreciate it when you come back!
