This was probably our favorite Hipcamp stay! Gorgeous layout with all the amenities you could ever need. The hosts were amazing and truly a pleasure to work with. We don't usually leave reviews, but this experience more than deserved one! We will absolutely be back!

We would highly recommend Honey Grove. It's very clean, quiet, and convenient, whether you're visiting locally or staying for awhile. The bathrooms and showers are pristine.

We loved the peace and quiet. There's water features and streams throughout the trails on property. Check with Michael about using the gas stove and oven; we didn't use it and the gas may have been off. Everything was clean and the inside water got hot. Michael was quiet to respond.

A True Hidden Gem! Pictures Don't Do It Justice!
My wife and I had the most wonderful weekend camping at Harmony Lake! From the moment we arrived, the hosts, Joan and Ken, were incredibly welcoming and hospitable. They keep the property in absolutely immaculate condition. We needed electricity for our site, and Ken made it happen without any trouble at all.
The views from our tent overlooking the lake were breathtaking—the definition of camping luxury! We spent our time relaxing and filming our new Coody Dome tent for our YouTube channel, "Gear Up, Go Explore!", and this location was the perfect backdrop. The description and photos online don't do this place justice; it truly exceeded our expectations.
The property has fantastic amenities, like clean showers, restrooms, and even communal propane grills and a kitchen area, which saves so much space when packing. We loved the little touches, like the friendly animals, the floating bridge to the island retreat, and the well-stocked lake for catch-and-release fishing. For just $15, they provide a very generous amount of high-quality firewood, which was super convenient.
Whether you're looking for a private, basic site in the woods or a full hookup site by the water, they have options. Our advice: book fast, because this place is amazing! Thank you, Joan and Ken, for an unforgettable experience. We will definitely be back!

We’ve stayed here twice in the last month and it feels just like a private getaway for me and my family! Lovely hosts and pretty much everything we would need on hand to enjoy the amenities on the property. We enjoyed the paddle boats, the floating walkway, beach, trampoline, tables near the dock for a picnic lunch and hot shower in the guest house. Plan on coming back after winterizing our camper for those more mild winter days and use the kitchen/bathroom in the guest house for our water related needs.

Joan and Ken were wonderfully friendly, communicative, and flexible hosts — even though I stayed only briefly, they made everything easy and welcoming. The farm stay is a beautiful location, and the campsite was comfortable and well-appointed. I’d happily return and would recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, accommodating getaway.

A lovely campground! The grounds and the bathrooms were very clean. Had some hiking trails and I enjoyed walking around with the pup. Staff was kind and there is a well-stocked store. It's a little out of the way but that made for a peaceful stay.

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful time here! We would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to stay, Joan and Kenny were very accommodating and were always willing to help in any way they could. The land was also beautiful and we loved seeing their animals. The floating dock was awesome as well, wish we had more time to stay and enjoy their lovely place!

Beautiful area. Loved the little trailer and surroundings. Everything we needed was right there. Quiet, but not too far from anything. Highly recommend.

Our guest greeted us at the gate and showed us a great camping place for my grandson and I to enjoy. The land was beautiful and surrounded by trees. We really appreciated the firewood that was delivered to us. Honestly, the online pictures don’t really show the beauty of this land and its surrounding area. One of our favorite activities for the weekend was to paddle boat around the lake and explore the gazebo in the island in the middle of the lake. Another amazing amenity is the animals that are walking around and especially the beauty of the peacocks. I look forward to having a family camp out and enjoying the beach. Make sure to bring a hammock because they have a wonderful set up. There are also many opportunities for recreational exercise along with hiking around the lake. This is absolutely one of my favorite hip camps that I have ever been blessed to be able to camp out.

Such a great place! There were several RV/campers - not super private - but everyone was respectful of each others space, and all were early to bed folks - which I loved. Spaces were flat, lots of room - cool little horse ring and even a few horses were grazing just behind the lodge. BIG SCORE - were the showers, toilets, running water, and electricity! You forget how good a shower feels. Host was very welcoming and kind. Would highly recommend!

I cannot say enough good things about Harmony Farm, and the owners Kenny and Joan. This was by far and away the best camping experience my family have ever had. To say they went out of their way to accommodate us would be an understatement. We forgot our smores ingredients, and Joan arrived with a bag of marshmallows chocolate and crackers! One of our tent hinges snapped, and Kenny made it his mission to get it fixed and safe for the night! I have four young children and they were so kind and welcoming, I seriously cannot say enough good things. The farm itself was wonderful, just an absolute dream location. The children had fun in the lake, and admiring Boris the pig and the emu and peacocks. I almost don’t want to leave such deserving high praise as I loved how peaceful and quiet it was! Thank you so much for our stay, and we will for sure be back!

Where to go
Wallace State Park
For an upgraded public camping experience near Cameron, visit Wallace State Park. Large basic and electric sites can accommodate both tents and RVs. Walk-in sites offer extra serenity for tent campers. Lake Allaman is the central focus point, a blue gem surrounded by green hills, offering fishing, boating, and more. Trails crisscross the woodlands.
St. Joseph
Head west from Cameron, just as the pioneers did to reach one of the starting points of the Oregon Trail in St. Joseph. Explore history and architecture that tells tales of bygone eras. Near town, public camping is offered at Lewis and Clark State Park, as well as several locations operated by the Department of Natural Resources. Several RV parks offer a full slate of amenities in the area.
Watkins Mill State Park
Watkins Woolen Mill State Historic Site, located 25 miles south of Cameron, provides education, beauty, and recreation, all in one package. The park’s focal point is a 19th-century textile mill and several other historic structures. A 100-acre lake provides a scenic spot for fishing, paddling, and boating, and surrounding trails offer space for hiking and biking. The wooded campground has almost 100 sites, most of which have electric hookups.
Kansas City
Just 50 miles southwest of Cameron lies one of Missouri’s largest cities, Kansas City. Jazz and blues, barbecue, and baseball are just three things residents and visitors love about this energetic town. The vibrant downtown showcases history, arts, and culture. Several private RV parks dot the suburbs, catering to families and those seeking full hookups. Outside of the city, public camping can be enjoyed at Weston Bend State Park.
When to go
Summer is when most activities are in full swing, though some days may have sweltering heat and humidity. Spring and fall are more moderate, with fall offering extra beauty as the forests pop with color. Winter is not a popular time for camping, due to freezing temperatures and occasional snow and ice, but some parks are open year round.
