Milo Farm was established organically a few years ago. The energy at Milo so amazing we wanted to share! There's a story behind the sacredness of this land, Loni can share that with you if you ask! There are 5 different ecosystems at Milo, all which hold their own magic!🪄
Milo has mant tent sites, car camping sites (for retroverted cars & sprinter vans), 6 cabins, a luxury guest space for you to stay! Sorry we DO NOT have any RV spots at this time. Our cabins are the Hippie Trailer, which is located near the west woods near the Fairy Forest. Then the Bunkhouse just past the big barn on the north end of the property. The lodge, where the Airbnb and pool are is centrally located on the land. We rent out the lower level guest quarters for non-campers. We have a Hobbit Hut near the Frog Pond, a Boho Bus near the entry way and several Vardos (gypsy wagons). For our tent campers there are tent sites in the Eastfield, including the Movie set location of the DM Cabin, and for diehard campers the beauty of primitive pack-in/pack-out camping of Freedom Field is a joy! Feel the energy of the sacred land.
We also have SO may attractions! There are 2 stocked ponds, miles of trails, pool, Zen garden, farm animals, a library and more. Find all the portals here!
Bless Mother Earth and spend some time in nature at this magical place.
Great for the spiritually minded with several meditation spots. There are events happening some weekends you can participate in. We have a Call to Prayer 9:30am every day in the Art Studio/Spirit Shack, you may join us! Loni is a spiritual intuitive and can do a reading using the Milo Farm Oracle cards she created! Ask for availability of these things. Milo has a lot to offer!

Escape the crowds and enjoy private camping on our 20-acre farm just minutes from Smithville Lake. With only a few well-spaced sites, you’ll have room to relax, unwind, and experience a quieter kind of stay.
We offer two distinct campsite experiences:
Sycamore Grove — A shaded, secluded site surrounded by trees, ideal for quiet stays and privacy.
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.

Our stay was wonderful! Kenny set our son up for some successful Birthday fishing! We jumped on the trampoline, swam, fished and enjoyed all the animals. The highlight was Finn’s catfish catch with Kenny’s supplied bait. Our trip even ended with the gift of a beautiful feather. Thanks for hosting a great night and morning!

The stars, the sunset, the crickets, the cicadas. Beautiful spot. The goats were cute, the site was plenty far removed from houses to be quiet. The site had a flat spot to park my Subaru and sleep flat in it. You have to get out of the car to and open the gates upon arrival and departure, but someone quickly came out to make sure i got it (it was self-explanatory, but i was worried about letting the goats out!). He was friendly. Do try to use the restroom at the gas station before you get off i70 though, because the site is wide open with houses in eye shot in the day time!

Last minute decision to camp out was great! The area is definitely only accessible via 4X4 after all the rain we've had. There were paths mowed and I was able to find a spot to camp with my hammock on the back of the bronco. I will come back but may wait until after the first freeze to avoid the bugs! Beautiful bird watching (Indigo Buntings everywhere!) and heard the owls calling to each other all night!

My husband and I took our first camping trip this weekend together, and we’re so grateful we chose this campground! We had our own little secluded campsite away from everyone else, which made it feel so peaceful. We loved spending time at the beach, fishing, and just enjoying the outdoors.
Ken and Joan were absolutely wonderful. Ken went out of his way to help us since we had very little fishing experience, and thanks to his help we ended up catching a huge catfish! He even helped us handle it afterward, which we definitely appreciated. 😅
We also loved seeing all the animals around the property, the beautiful peacocks roaming freely, the ducks, the pig, and especially the friendly emu. I even got to pet an emu for the first time!
This was such a memorable camping experience, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place. We can’t recommend this campground enough and are already looking forward to coming back!
