Loved our stay! Took my son tent camping and thoroughly enjoyed the campground. Jon is an amazing host and made sure our stay was top notch. The sites were clean, well taken care of and the scenery was fantastic. We didn’t pack any fishing gear on this trip, but we will definitely remember to pack it the next time we visit. I highly recommend this campground to anyone who wants a nice, peaceful camping experience.

My son and I stayed on Clays property one night on a drive from FL to Missouri. The property was great. We camped right by the pond and saw several deer and had a fantastic view of the stars. I’d definitely stay here again 👍👍

Austin has such a wonderful space! Upon arrival he greeted us and gave us a tour of the barn and animal stables. The ranch was easy to find and has a spacious driveway suitable for car camping. There are also several tent sites available, one of which was under a covered area with lights and an outdoor space heater. Bathrooms were inside with flushing toilets, heat, and lights- a camping luxury to us. We couldn't have been more grateful for the roof and made it through a rough storm shacked up with the incredibly friendly animals. Pet friendly, our 60lb dog had just as much fun looking at the animals as we did. We are looking forward to another stay if we're ever in the area.

Beautiful place & very friendly host! You can tell that a lot of love goes into the ranch, their animals & the communal space. I camped there by myself, felt very safe & would come back any time!

I arrived later than scheduled and they still greeted me immediately and got me to my prime real estate (right next to the pool). Super helpful. The property is well designed and tucked away from the world. A lake to fish from, a pool, a pavilion, 2 dog parks, a store. I just started my RV journey and have been to a few spots. This place exceeded my expectations. A must stop in Mississippi, along the I-20.

We had an amazing tent camping trip with the most peaceful country views. Waking up in the morning to open skies, fresh air, and the sound of nature was exactly what we needed. The pond was absolutely beautiful — calm, clean, and perfect for fishing. We spent hours casting lines and just soaking in the quiet surroundings.
If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway with scenic views and great fishing, this spot is a hidden gem. Simple, peaceful, and refreshing — we’ll definitely be back.

Austin was an excellent host. The space is amazing. We would have stayed longer and enjoyed the farm but had to get to NOLA!

After several days on the road, I pulled into Black River completely worn out and overstimulated—just looking for somewhere to hide out and decompress. This place was exactly what the doctor ordered.
Scott was a fantastic host, and the site itself is private and peaceful. If you're someone who needs quiet to recharge, this is your spot.
The real bonus for me was the huge open field. My dog was able to run, play, and burn off days' worth of pent-up road-trip energy—which meant we both slept well that night.
I wasn't able to take advantage of the fishing this trip, but the river is right there and the opportunity is outstanding if that's your thing. There are also hiking trails through the woods if you want to explore.
Honestly, this place checked every box. Private, quiet, dog-friendly, with water access and trails if you want them—or just peace and space if you don't. Definitely one of the top spots on my list for a return visit.
Thanks, Scott.

This place is a MUST visit! My husband and i enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back with babies and grandson. Mr. Austin stayed in contact even before the trip...We enjoyed interacting with the animals and were hoping to do the horseback riding but it rained. This place is 1000/10! I promise you won't be disappointed.

We only overnighted at Wendy Oaks. It was a great, easily accessed campground for us. I add that as we travel with a small trailer and a U-turn was necessary. The trees and lake made me feel like I was in a camp ground, Unfortunately it rained all night and we skipped the hike around the lake. Our site was gravel but level.
