There are a number of hiking trails on the property.  Bordering state lands to the east of the property provide endless exploration and hiking adventures.  Hike to the top of the bluff for a spectacular view of Welch valley and the ski hill.  Hiking NE along Belle Creek can you spot the old model A truck along the banks?  There are eagles, falcons, finches, and many colorful birds to see. 

The swing is located on the trail between Mellow Yellow and Island Blue camps!

Bus on a hill

Our bus was recently reviewed by Regular Car Reviews https://youtu.be/3641ixc3FkQ?si=_FVBOYz8TAEi_TFg 

Don't worry, you won't be driving in it! 

We are offering the opportunity to stay on the back hill of our ten-acre rural property. You can go for walks around the pasture on our mowed trail or just sit and enjoy the beautiful Minnesota views. 

The site is on a gravel road and you cannot see our house from where the bus is parked. While you can see the neighbor's house, it is still very dark at night and excellent for stargazing. 

The bus will be disabled for guests; it will not start or move. While there are electric fans, AC, and a TV with DVD player, there is no electricity available (bring your own generator if you want).  

There is a cassette toilet with instructions.

This is your entrance. Park in the driveway or feel free to park on the mowed walking path.

Queen bed at back of bus. Site has no electricity, so air conditioner and fans will not work unless you bring your own generator 

How to use cassette toilet. Bottled water is provided for flushing

Come mid summer enjoy a walk through the pollinator habitat and enjoy the blooms of summer. Half the farm is dedicated to space for our beloved pollinators.

The Farm at Heirloomista

The Farm used to be part of a larger, old farm until one day it was parceled off. It sat vacant for 15 years until I bought it and turned in into an off-grid, working farm. It's now it the seventh season of growing heirloom vegetables, fruit and herbs. Sign up for a farm tour or shop the Farm Shop to stock up on all the local produce + proteins. As a nature-lover, I designated 2 acres to pollinator habitat. Come walk the path through and discover all the critters that like to hang out in this safe haven.

Learn more about this land:

Enjoy an night on the farm: Leave your tent at home and camp in the open-air a-frame tucked in to a pocket of poplars and evergreens in the pollinator habitat. Stay up to watch the star with no light pollution. Wake up to the cranes visiting the fields in the morning.

The pollinator field path is a highlight of the farm.

The greenhouse and vegetable fields from the food prep area.

Cook over the campfire as the sun goes down.

The campsite is tucked away behind the food prep and picnic area.

Waterfall in the adjacent park is a 500 foot walk down the trail.

Prairie Creek Campground

Thank you for a great 2025 Camping Season!  This was our best year yet! We hosted more Hipcampers than any year before and are excited to have been honored again with a Best in Minnesota award.  Thank you and we look forward to 2026.  Booking for 2026 is open.

Pitch your tent at one of our Walk-In forest campsites on 60 acres along Prairie Creek in Rice County, MN.  Explore the creeks, trails, forest, our enormous granite "split rock" erratic, a 60 acre county park featuring waterfalls and trails, including a single track mountain bike trail.  That's 120 acres of exploring outside your tent; this campground truly offers a large amount of remote forest for recreation right on site.

Big Woods State Park is less than 2 miles away.  Faribault is 8 miles and Northfield is 9 miles from our driveway; they offer dining, boutiques, and all other amenities.  Nerstrand is 4.5 miles east and has a gas station and a fantastic meat market.  Numerous Cannon River put-ins are within 10 miles.

We do not have firewood available at the campground; please plan ahead to bring firewood with you.  

A map of the land is in the photos and shows locations of sites, parking and more.  All Sites are Walk-In!  We have a cart you may use to haul gear in.

Vehicles: Our main parking area by sites 1, 2, & 3 is easily accessible.  The road to the secondary parking area beside our hilltop site 4 is up an adventurous gravel road (but is very accessible).

Kids under 16 camping with their parents do not count in pricing.

This campground is managed by Stephen and Molly on land owned by them and their father Ted.  In 1961, Stephen's grandparents bought this farm. In addition to farming they also operated a trail riding stable here. Over the years, the arable land has been sold, but we retained the wooded areas which are twice crossed by creeks.  About 30 years ago, a 60 acre county park bordering the south and west sides of our land was created.

We are very excited to host campers as a way to preserve and share this beautiful property.

The Split Rock!  This enormous feature is a granite glacial erratic.  It was deposited here as the Wisconsin Glaciation receded approximately 18,000 years ago.  
Its natural split is wide enough to walk through and the view from the top is excellent!

The terrain is mostly deciduous forest.  A creek meanders through the main camping area.
