This land was homesteaded by my great grandparents in 1900 as part of the Homestead Act of 1862. After losing my store to fire in 2013, I took the leap, and decided to open the farm to the public. I have a menagerie of animals, many rescued or adopted, that love all the attention. My friends' kids love camping in the pasture with the animals and when I saw an ad for Hipcamp, I thought maybe others would want the experience, too!Learn more about this land:Yoga with goats meets camping with alpacas! We offer camping in the small animal pasture of our family petting farm. (We also offer campsites away from the critters if your not too sure about sharing your space with livestock!).

It was a peaceful and beautiful cabin out in the middle of nowhere. The beds were comfortable enough. It was nice they did have fitted sheets on top of the beds. The wood for the campfire was awesome to have. They brought us extra water and tp when we needed it. A little tricky to find but she responded immediately when we messaged. The road to the cabin could use a little maintenance like some pebbles to fill in the pot holes- we didn’t get stuck but we’re concerned a few times. We enjoyed our stay.

Amanda has an amazing and private piece of property. It was plenty quiet and road noice was basically nonexistent. We originally planned to test out a new 6 person tent (location has plenty of large, flat areas prime for tent pads), but a long thunderstorm really made us appreciate the onsite primitive cabin. There were only 2 of us (plus a dog), but the cabin was roomy enough for more. The bunk beds definitely were a comfortable change from tent sleeping pads. The outhouse was nice, clean, and maintained and the large mowed area allowed for all kinds of running around with a dog-type activities. Will definitely visit again- highly recommend!

We loved spending time at this cute little cabin! The property was beautiful and very well kept and clean. The views were amazing and it was so peaceful. We had a pet emergency and had to leave a night early, Amanda was very accommodating, friendly, and helpful in our prompt departure. If we ever come back to this area, we'll definitely come back to the cabin! Thank you Amanda!

Weekend Trip to 16 Squared Cabin
Very cozy cabin and beautiful land. This was a very “all to yourself” site other than 1 day a parade of side by sides went across the property right behind the cabin. We weren’t aware that others would be accessing the driveway/trails on the property during our stay. There were lots of ticks but there were not mosquitoes. Bring flashlights as the inside of the cabin stays dark throughout the day because of so much tree coverage which is great for temp control. Amanda was great for fulfilling our water needs. We would absolutely go back.
