There is a lot of nut trees and chickens! I inherited this land from my uncles who spent their whole life’s purpose to live and maintain the land. It has given me such peace and a great escape that I think everyone deserves to touch a piece of its soul to help you in your soul searching or unplugging from life to clear your mind to tackle the world! I’ve grown up seeing the land change, watching how nature can change streams and hills and love seeing how years and years of leaving it alone can create such a beautiful canvas all on its own. One of my uncles favorite things to do was to look for arrowheads and if you are familiar with ancient Indian practices, you can find many characteristics in these woods.

Overlook Site — A spacious, open setting perfect for RV campers or those who prefer wide views and flexible space. Spend your day at Smithville Lake, then return to a peaceful campsite where you won’t hear crowded neighbors - just open space and natural surroundings. This is not a traditional campground. Sites are intentionally spaced for privacy and simplicity. The Overlook site is a dry site (no water or sewer), best suited for self-contained setups. With limited sites available, weekends and peak seasons tend to book quickly—reserve early to secure your stay.
