Chelsey has a great set up and is conveniently located right near the highway and local restaurants. She was very helpful upon our arrival and ensured we had what we needed. If ever in the area again, I would definitely stay at Chelsey's farm if available.

Beautiful spot with large shade trees. Amazing sunrise view from property. Whimsical outhouse facility gave it a homey vibe. We were greeted by the owner’s two very friendly and sweet dogs. One sat with us while we had our coffee and just wanted some head scratching. It made us feel good since we were missing our dogs that couldn’t come with us on this trip.

First off, the host was wonderful. Her and her family are very friendly and make you feel at home. They have two nice dogs, a few barn kitties (also friendly), a couple chickens, and a rooster. The rooster is actually quieter than most when crowing in the morning.
The campsite was clean and close to the outhouse. There was a big fire pit and a nice picnic table. There was enough space for four tents (two big and two small) and an 8x8 canopy. We brought four dogs with us too and didn't have any issues.
The farm was very cute and quaint. There were a couple other folks camping on the property too but lots of space between sites.
We loved our stay at the farm and would come again. Keep in mind, this is not your typical camp in the woods setup - this is on a farm with more field than tree. It is beautiful in its own right and was a great way to mix up our camping experience.

Very private, beautiful property. The host was friendly and very hospitable— offering firewood, providing a citronella candle, and got an extra digger out for the sand box. This is a good beginner campsite — close to help, but enough privacy to enjoy your time. We had a small fire the first night, unfortunately, though we struggled to enjoy it. For some reason, the mosquitos were the worst we have ever experienced. They swarmed us even with the citronella candles and bug spray. A member of the host’s family did say that this was very unusual to have them this bad though. So, hopefully, it won’t be a hindrance to future campers, because it really is a great, convenient site— especially if you are just popping up a tent for the night and heading into town to see the green giant as we were doing. After camping at 8 different sites, this site is the one we felt most safe at too!

Edwin and his dogs, Sugar and Mulberry, were very welcoming and kind. Lots of goats, geese, chickens and ducks rambling around too! 🐐🪿🐓🦆🌞 The wide open sky and sunset were beautiful across the rolling fields. And there were also Fireflies! ✨ A simple and easy environment to rest and relax.
