38mi from Hermann · 4 sites · Lodging

This land has been asking to be shared. First it was swings and little things for the grandchildren and their friends. Then the Cabin by the pond began to welcome visitors. Soon the steep slope anchored a Yurt with a wrap-around deck that puts you up in the trees. Our gathering spot by the creek became a camp site. Recently the grandkids' Bunk House found its way in. Our Retreat is 10 acres, narrow, but 1/4 mile deep, stretching down a steep wooded slope to a creek - and up the other side to the top of a bluff.  It is only ten miles to Jefferson City but has a quiet and distant feel.

Grand Army Farm is a family owned working farm. We raise beautiful angora goats for fiber and have chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys and meat goats. We serve local restaurants and participate in many local area farmers market. We pride ourselves in minimizing our carbon footprint, to the extent that we don't own any heavy piece of farm equipment, not even an ATV. The working portion of the game only accounts for 15 % of the land. What this means is that 85% of the wooded acres is available for you HipCampers to hike and explore. Of particular interest is the site of an old moonshine distillery hidden in the woods, a 20 min hike east of your campsite. Legends has it that the moonshine was illicitly produced during Prohibition and sold in the loft of our biggest barn where people would drink and dance the night away. The property boats of gorgeous mature oak trees, hickory trees and newer cedar stands where nature abounds. In the morning you may see the herons fly in or the Canadian geese come in.Learn more about this land:Pitch your own tent by our 5 acres lake. You will hear the frogs croak at night, see sights of blue herons or Canadian geese flying in, and hear our own geese and ducks greet you from across the lake. You will see my goat barn and see the majestic angora goats with shimmering coats come in for their feedings in the morning and leave to go to pasture afterwards. You will be a 10 min walk from our house and have complete privacy.  If you would like to make a fire, there is plenty of wood available to pick up on site.  A map on the patio fridge will show you where water is available and the hiking trail head.

Weekend Trip to Retreat to the Country

Loved Bill’s little cabin, the hike and cats most especially. He was so accommodating and flexible when we came in later, he allowed a late check-in. He was responsive when we had questions. The only thing to note is the toilet is in the room and so if you need full privacy, either be comfortable with who you’re with or they’ll have to step out. The compost toilet took some research to understand how to use, and I am still not sure I used it totally correctly. Either way, we plan to go back again someday!

Lovely family, a truly staggering number of chickens and all the horses are extremely, extremely polite and friendly. Loved that when we parked, there was a lovely horse immediately in view of our front window and the zoom class I had was made that much better with the singing of roosters! The farm-fresh eggs are well worth it, you get a mixed set of all colors: don't miss! Worth noting that the site can be muddy if it's rainy - it's right next to the barn and is typical of a barnyard - but we didn't find that to be a problem. It's nice and level and we had no difficulty getting in or out.

2 nights at Sudden Valley Ranch

I really enjoyed camping at Sudden Valley. I was looking to get away from everything and a public campground is usually too close to your neighbors. I wanted solitude. The Top of the Ridge site was perfect. The site is tucked back into the woods with was plenty of room to spread out with multiple tent sites in that area to choose from - tucked into the trees or out in the open. It would be great for a family with a couple of tents and still have room for games like corn hole or washers. I’ll probably bring my grandkids next summer. Randy got me set up with firewood and the scoop on the property, then I wasn’t bothered the rest of my trip, well, except for Molly, one of their dogs, that dropped by for a visit each morning for a quick pet.

As always, Katie and her husband are amazing hosts! They had the haunted hayride, and although I didn’t get to go (due to having my 2 dogs while camping), it sounded like it was so much fun from those who did get to go! I left early from my trip due to rain, but love this place and have been many times. Will continue to camp @ PeaceTree. It is so serene and just beautiful!

This is the view from Hideaway Ridge! Come and enjoy.

The Town of Hermann

Since it is such a popular traveling destination, Hermann abounds with lodging and camping options. Private RV parks offer a full slate of amenities, from full hookups to free wifi to swimming pools. Even the city park is set up for campers, with over 50 campsites providing hookups for tents and RVs. Public campgrounds operated by the Department of Natural Resources, the Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the Missouri Department of Conservation offer scenic options, primarily with primitive campsites.

Graham Cave State Park

When people talk about historic sites, they usually are talking about recent history, within the last few hundred years, but what if you want to explore what life was like 10,000 years ago? Graham Cave State Park provides this opportunity, thanks to a unique sandstone cave that has evidence of Native American occupancy for thousands of years. The park’s 400 acres offer hiking trails through the woodlands and fishing and paddling opportunities on the Loutre River. Campers will find basic and electric tent and RV sites.

St. Louis

Missouri’s second-largest town is less than an hour east of Hermann, meaning you can make it an easy day trip or camping base. The downtown area showcases the history of this grand city, which was founded in the 1760s. Get a bird’s eye view of the city at Gateway Arch National Park. Urban and suburban RV parks provide amenity-filled stays, while surprisingly scenic public campgrounds can be found at Babler State Park and Horseshoe Lake State Park.

When to go

October is a popular time to visit Hermann, due to the annual Oktoberfest, which stretches throughout the whole month—with festivities starting in September. The campgrounds may be more crowded, but the crisp weather and leaf peeping can’t be beat. Spring weather is also great for camping, though cooler temperatures may stretch late into the season. Summer is hot and humid, but camping can still be enjoyed. Winter is less than ideal, with freezing temperatures and precipitation.
