Weekend Trip to Plantasia Homestead at Anglin Falls

Great experience! We had an amazing time camping on Phil's property. Even though there was some rain we remained dry because of the well-built tent platform. Phil and his family were very nice and welcoming. We were also able to do some nearby canoeing and hiking in the area. I definitely recommend checking it out.

1 night at Farm and Forest

We had a lovely night all to ourselves on this spacious farm on our drive from Virginia to Colorado . Our dogs loved it! Plenty of games and fun things for kids, including disc golf. We had a couple of questions and the host was very responsive..

Weekend Trip to Misty Bottoms

Misty Bottoms was great! The hosts are friendly and hospitable but don't invade your space/privacy. There's a great covered spot to hang, play games, cook etc if the weather takes a turn or you just need shade. The bathroom was clean and the shower is a great added amenitiy. We would definitely stay there again!

Weekend Trip to Rockcastle Riverside

Great place for RV camping that doesn’t feel like a state park or huge facility. Lots of good tent, camping spots away from the RVs too. We had a great weekend.

Weekend Trip to Farm and Forest

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful property! Our kids loved playing in the open spaces and we loved the quiet evenings by the campfire. Lovely spot!

Weekend Trip to Farm and Forest

Beautiful property with several spots. We chose to tent camp with electricity in order to work during Friday day and was placed near the stage. We had a wide open space with nice views of the farm. We enjoyed walking the trails. Next time, we will try primitive camping at one of the more private and shady sites. There were a few other campers there which was nice to chat. We were offered the use of the bathroom at the house which worked well for us. Overall, a great stay.

Weekend Trip to Plantasia Homestead at Anglin Falls

We had a fantastic stay at the private campsite on Plantasia Homestead. Phil, the owner, was welcoming and respectful of our space. The site itself was peaceful and well-thought-out—plenty of trees for our four hammocks, and the tent platform made a great spot to set up a table for board games in the evenings. One of the highlights was having access to fresh spring water and a sink—rare perks that made a big difference. We also really enjoyed seeing and hearing the ducks around the property, which added to the charm. Despite being close to the main house, we still felt a strong sense of privacy. The nearby hiking trail to the waterfall was a short and easy walk from camp, making it a perfect location for nature lovers. And we have to mention: the outhouse was the nicest and cleanest we’ve ever used—seriously impressive. We highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a quiet, well-equipped place to relax and enjoy nature.

Weekend Trip to Terrapin Hill Farm

We enjoyed a wonderful weekend of camping at the farm. The owners were super helpful and kind. It was nice to be able to let our dogs off leash to play catch and to explore a little bit.

Weekend Trip to Keep It Simple Stupid

We loved our overnight stay here. Feels so secluded and private. I would ABSOLUTELY stay here again….in fact we already booked our next stay!

1 night at Keep It Simple Stupid

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.

4 nights at Escape With Us RV Resort

Great spot! The owners are local and have put together a wonderful spot. I give them 10 out of 10. The owners were very nice! They have all the hookups and beautiful views. In the summer the fireflies are a plenty.

2 nights at Savvy Retreat

Great place to stay. Having a covered place to park your RV made everything so much easier. The area around the site is absolutely beautiful.

3 nights at Rockcastle Riverside

Friendly people, level site, cut firewood for everyone (downed trees from storms this past winter). Power and water hookups worked as expected. All sites are out in the open so it will be warm during the summer, but it is only 50 yards to the river.

3 nights at Rockcastle Riverside

Beautiful area of KY by the Rockcastle River, friendly hosts & laid back atmosphere made for an amazing weekend 😀

Weekend Trip to Savvy Retreat

We had a wonderful experience and a much needed peaceful getaway! Our hosts thought of everything and were very attentive. We had the best of both worlds with access to WiFi, electric, water and the experience of being deep in the woods and immersed in nature. We are looking forward to another trip in the fall when the leaves change. I highly recommend this private campsite for anyone seeking a peaceful retreat!

Weekend Trip to Red Haven Farm Rustic Camping

I didn’t expect the land to be so private and quiet. Sandy and Martin were great hosts, they greeted us upon arrival and were able to bring us fire wood (for an additional charge). The camp site had tables, a fire pit ring and even a very clean porta potty. The site sits along a beautiful creek where we spent our second day there exploring. Although it was just me and my wife, this site would be perfect for a large group of campers. Definitely going to return soon!

3 nights at Terrapin Hill Farm

Terrapin Hill was delightful. Brenda and Pete were wonderful hosts, and the land offered quiet spots and rolling trails. It's close to Shaker Village and lots of other sites.

Weekend Trip to Misty Bottoms

I really like the set-up of this place! The camp site is nice and level with direct access to the river. It was quiet and peaceful during my stay. Tena had great communication prior to my visit, and showed us where everything was located upon arrival. I hope to visit again later in summer and paddle on one of my favorite rivers in all of Kentucky.

Weekend Trip to Farm and Forest

Jennifer’s farm was a perfect place to stay with our class B can. Quiet and peaceful, only 15 minutes from the UK campus, Lexington downtown and easy to get to from the interstate. The site had full 30amp hookup , water and dump. Jennifer was very helpful and went out of her way to make it an easy place to find and stay.

Weekend Trip to Savvy Retreat

Savvy Retreat is the perfect spot for a private getaway. The hosts have thought of everything, making it such a comfortable stay. We will definitely be visiting here again!

Farm and Forest

17 sites · RVs, Tents22 acres · Lexington, KY

This land has previously been a tobacco farm, a hay farm, and is now home to a few beef cattle. We have blazed trails through the woods for hiking, created campsites with fire rings, farmed hay, and grown various vegetables for self-consumption. We love the proximity of the farm to town, yet the seclusion we feel when we are out there.

Rockcastle Riverside

50 sites · RVs, Tents200 acres · Livingston, KY

Started as a retirement experiment, Rockcastle Riverside is a story told of music and family. We have almost 200 acres of beautiful country surrounded by the Daniel Boone National Forest in Rockcastle County. With a mile of river to swim, kayak, and fish and enchanted forest trails to hike, climb, or play, we have all of the best Kentucky has to offer! We have more established sites with fire rings, or you can find a place off the beaten path for more privacy, if you choose. The riverside is perfect for hammock camping, too. We love music and often host bands on the weekends. We rent kayaks and canoes on site, as well. While there are almost 200 acres to escape into, on any fine night, the stage sits wit a drum kit and the will to make music within the Daniel Boone National Forest. Come play, come get away....we have it ALL! We have a little of something for everyone!

Plantasia Homestead at Anglin Falls

1 site · RV, Tent35 acres · Mount Vernon, KY

Our property, Plantasia, is thirty-five acres of hardwood forest, lined with limestone boulders and sandstone cliffs, the occasional old growth tree, and mineral springs pouring out pure delicious water. The rest of the property is an old Appalachian homestead, featuring organic gardens and orchards, two farm cats and one farm dog, bee hives, and a flock of domestic ducks. The stewards are Phil, Sacha, three year-old Aurora, and baby Arthur. We are particularly keen to welcoming other families and/or folks who live in relative sobriety. The springs feed into creeks which criss-cross the wildflower meadow, creating spaces to splash and explore with the minnows, crawdads, frogs, snakes, and whoever else you might find. To the interest of fossil hunters and rock hounds, the creeks are packed with geodes, agates, and relics of an age when Plantasia was the ocean floor (~250 million years ago). Down the road, the trailhead of one of Kentucky's greatest waterfalls, Anglin Falls, is within walking distance (though you can also drive there and park). Plantasia is also a short drive from Berea, the folk art capital of Kentucky, which features plenty of local shops and restaurants, as well as some beautiful trails on the outskirts of town (Brushy Fork for a relaxing stroll, or the Pinnacles for a big majestic hike).
