Scottish Highland Cattle Ranch

Learn more about this land:

We have  five campsites in 135 acres of acres of forest and ranch land in our working cattle and sheep ranch.&nbsp; Located in a serene valley in the Ozark Highlands, the Ranch has&nbsp;Sheep, Scottish Highland Cattle, Chickens, Ducks and Great Pyrenees livestock guard dogs (only in the sheep pastures - and they are friendly).&nbsp; If you want to meet our animals and see the farm we are happy to show you around!

This is a unique&nbsp;site located in the Ozark Highlands. Only 45 minutes from Cape Girardeau (a small river town on the Mississippi), and 45 minutes from the Arcadia Valley including Taum Sauk mountain (the highest point in Missouri), Elephant Rocks, the Johnston Shutins, and other beautiful areas in the highlands.&nbsp;

The farm is five minutes from Marble Hill, which is home to the Bollinger County Natural History museum which highlights the only dinosaur bones found in Missouri. The bones were found at a farm in Glennallen (a few minutes from our farm) as well as a great barbeque (Jay’s Restaurant) and a good catfish restaurant (Jers Restaurant). On the way to our farm, feel free to stop at the 1,700 foot deep artesian well to get a cool, refreshing jug of natural artesian well water – the water is free, but you have to bring your own containers!&nbsp;

We are two and a half hours southwest of St. Louis, and two and half hours northwest of Memphis.

Oak Grove Tiny Home Community

Since 2018, we have traveled full time and stayed at cramped, noisy RV parks that had poorly engineered utilities.. These experiences along with the rising cost of housing and full campgrounds, have motivated us to build our quiet, private, and safe community. We welcome all those who choose to live by the words "Home is where you park it." Oak Grove offers many stay options, full hookups, and more. Make no fuss, come stay with us at your home away from home!
