Oak Grove Tiny Home Community

21 sites · RVs8 acres · Campbell, MO
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!

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