Stories from the community

Gathering around the fire at Hickory Ridge Winery.

3 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

Wow! What a beautiful place to go camping! The hosts were very welcoming and gave us a link to all of the resources we might need, from hiking spots to restaurants and wineries and advice on how to deal with emergencies. The property has several camping sites, but they have plenty of space between them. We would definitely return!

2 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

Jon was super responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We ultimately had to cut our trip short due to weather since we were camping with little ones and Jon was very understanding. He offered a few different options to try to help us be able to stay, but was gracious when we determined going home early was the best choice for the kids. The location was perfect, with plenty of room for running around and having fun. Our site was close enough to neighbors to make friends if we wanted, but far enough away we didn’t have to worry about disturbing anyone. Will definitely be back to explore some more!

Weekend Trip to Wine Trail Wilderness

Jon was great and communicated well. His friend Jodie met us and we followed her to our spot. Jon brought by some good water while we were at the winery and that was a welcomed touch. We walked down the trail and road and to the winery. Enjoyed the Norton amongst the blooming Wisteria. Dogwoods were in bloom. We enjoyed our stay at the Outpost. Only one other couple was there at the Grainzebe and they were great neighbors. We could see them but it was not like a state park where campsites are next to each other. We loved how quiet and peaceful it was. The full moon surprised us and we watched it and the stars while we enjoyed our campfire. Everything was clean and tidy. I could see care to the grounds with paths mown and others areas left to be grown prairie-like. News trees were planted for shade in upcoming years. We felt safe which was important. Firepit, picnic table, trash can, and recycling can were provided. Bathroom was fun and creative. It was by Gainzebo campsite so a short walk to it. We used electric for blankets to keep cozy warm. Oh, and our two small dogs were happy too. It was only a 50 minute drive from our home in Cape Girardeau so made for a great quick overnight out. We are familiar with the area and there are lots of nearby outdoor opportunities to visit.

Weekend Trip to Wine Trail Wilderness

Campground is extremely nice and clean. Jon was a great host. Very accommodating, it’s a beautiful place. There are a lot of walking trails and beautiful scenery.

4 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

They were awesome, very nice an understanding, I appreciated their kindness an can’t wait to do it again

Weekend Trip to Wine Trail Wilderness

This is the best Hipcamp I’ve stayed at. They have thought of everything. Our stay was so amazing. There is so much to do in this area and Jon provided us with excellent recommendations. Wine, music, food, peace and quiet, hiking, amazing views, and bright stars shining! We’ll be back ❤️

3 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

My husband and I had the best time van camping at Jon and Carla’s place! We’ve stayed at quite a few different Hipcamps, but their space was truly unforgettable! We loved being able to use the Grainzebo to hang out, cook meals, and sit around the fire! It doubled as an extra space to utilize during some rain storms, and kept us dry and comfortable! The sunset views are spectacular too! The location is wonderful, and made for getting around to our favorite spots easy! Though we had the middle camp spot, we felt like we had plenty of privacy! Everything is set up well! All of the extras they provide and think of really set this place apart from others. Attention to detail is amazing! They were so kind and attentive as well! We really enjoyed our stay and will certainly be back in the future for more anniversary trips! Jon and Carla, thank you for making this a wonderful trip for us!

3 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

We loved camping at WTW! It is a beautiful camp site with enough privacy for each camper and with every detail that its owners have taken into consideration. Each campsite has its own tables, chairs, fire pit, and wooded area. The owners so kindly have set up waste/recycling baskets and provided us with fresh and delicious water when needed. They have a really cool restroom with an impeccably maintained compostable toilet and a sink to wash hands. Little details with huge impact when you’re camping with young ones and staying more than an overnight. The grainzebo is a cool place to hangout if you’re interested in chatting with other campers and if in need of an electric outlet. The bocci ball court is the ultimate hangout after a meal or a long hiking day! The owners also provide each guest with great resources as far as places to visit. Needless to say, one of the best camps in Hip Camp and a true gem in Southern Illinois. Thank you Jon for all your kindness and hospitality, we hope to come back again!

2 nights at Ridge Camping Private

Everything was great. We loved the spot we were in. It was very beautiful and quiet. Robyn and her husband Andy helped us out tremendously.

1 night at Wine Trail Wilderness

Beautiful land — Jon was very friendly & got camp set up for us before we arrived. The water & privy were much appreciated.

2 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

We had a fantastic time at WTW. Peaceful, tranquil, and beautiful. More importantly, if there are better hosts anywhere I have yet to find them. I will definitely plan to stop by again when in the area.

2 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

Jon and Carla have a beautiful Hipcamp. This is the first time we have gone camping with our toddler girls (ages 3 and 1) and we had a blast! I am so glad we chose WTW. We loved that the campsite locations were spread out from one another, so that our girls could run around, play, and hopefully not disturb anyone with all the laughter and yelling that comes with young children. We stayed at the Dogwood Site for two nights and absolutely loved the location. It’s perfect for our large 10-person tent with plenty of room. Each site has a firepit and a table with chairs. We appreciated the 5 gallons of ice cold water that was provided. There even is a nice outhouse on the property. Just beware if you have T-Mobile you will not have cell phone reception in the area without having to drive into a major town. However, we enjoyed having less cellular distractions as we could focus more on quality family time. Overall, we had a great experience and are looking forward to planning our next trip here!

4 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

We had a great time camping (really it was glamping!) at WTW! Our host met us at our arrival with our pre-ordered wine (and even real wine glasses), which was a real treat after a long drive. The campsite had everything we needed and more, and Jon was responsive to every request. He even lent us a local guidebook for Snake Road (a must visit in the area, if you are into those sort of critters). And Jon gave us really good and useful recommendations for local hikes (like which way to take the Little Grand Canyon hiking trail). We loved the "grainzebo" and the property overall and definitely would come back again. The composting toilet/outhouse was really quite nice and way better than any camping toilet we've ever had access to! The bocce court was so fun (and an unexpected surprise!) and the lights around the grainzebo gave us the perfect hang out spot, even in the chilly weather. Loved the area and would recommend WTW to everyone.

1 night at Wine Trail Wilderness

I am so impressed with the hospitality that Jon provided. He thought of all the amenities and made sure we had everything we would need for our short stop in town. We chose the option to have the tent put up for us since we are traveling and ended up getting into camp at mostly dark. We used the rest of daylight to prepare our evening meal. Thank you Jon!

Weekend Trip to Wine Trail Wilderness

Close to the road for easy access. Many good flat spaces in the campsite to pitch a tent. Well maintained and ecofriendly outhouse. Access to bocci ball pit as that site wasn't being used. Fire pit was ready for us, fresh water provided and picnic table. Natural bridge and Little Grand Canyon areas are short drives away. Everything was well maintained and we could see the personal pride for the land/facilities. Jon was a great host!

6 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

Jon was an incredible host and treated us well throughout our week! The hospitality was unparalleled and the atmosphere was great. Highly recommend to all climbers looking to camp around Holy Boulders, the supply of water and firewood was more than we could have asked for! P.S. the nearby wine is great too!

3 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

We enjoyed a wonderful relaxing stay at WTW during my Spring Break. The space was very well maintained and Jon was a stellar host making sure we had everything we needed. We loved the bocce ball court and the silo gazebo was a really cool touch. We’re looking forward to bringing our family back with us soon.

2 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

The campsites are spacious and spread out. You can see other campers, but at a distance. Jon is a very good host. I look forward to visiting here again, surrounded by the Shawnee National Forest.

1 night at Tall Tree Lake

The views were beautiful, with many birds in the morning

Weekend Trip to Wine Trail Wilderness

We had a wonderful weekend at WTW. The site was so clean & relaxing we hated leaving Sunday. Jon was a fantastic host, we cant recommend a stay here too much. Already planning our next trip back.

Wine Trail Wilderness

The Shawnee National Forest surrounds us, accessible only by wandering roads, passing over creeks and alongside wineries. The trip is worth the beautiful drive, eventually arriving at "The Villa". Our home looks like an Italian villa, appropriately placed between two wineries in the middle of the Shawnee Forest. It is actually a straw-bale home with supplemental solar energy. Originally built as a Holistic Healing Center, we have converted it into a comfortable home with great vibes. We have converted an old grain bin into a "GrainZebo" just outside our home as a fun place to hang out with friends and family. We hope you enjoy the same relaxed feel we get while living out here in the woods, when you come visit. We will be happy to help you feel at home out here. We love sharing the Shawnee experience.
