D'Ranch at Clearwater is a small, 40 acre hobby farm located on the north side of the Lake of the Ozarks in Central Missouri. What started as a simple love of backyard chickens has now become a dream farm for Tracey Durant and her husband Theodore. Nestled in the valley between two forest covered hillsides, and running adjacent to Clearwater Creek on the east and the lake on the south, D'Ranch could not have been a more perfect location for the Durants to plant their roots and get their feet wet. While they continue their love of backyard chickens with their small egg and hatchery operation know as HeebyJeeby Chickens, they have expanded their interests to an array of friendly farm animals including horses, cows, pigs, goats, sheep, ducks, and an occasional turkey or two.

A lovely creekside camping location ready for your dry camp including lovely forested spots to hold your tents, truck or van campers. The creek is fun to play in but certainly not over knee high in depth. The rock creek bed is great to walk down and explore the bluffs, and when dry or very low gives campers the occasional arrowhead. This location was the ancestral land of ancestral peoples (currently their name is unknown) and once you get settled in, you can easily see why!
Firewood is provided as well as a rock fire ring, LED lights, seating and a very unique outhouse and outdoor shower. Can't wait to see you!
***Once you are booked, you will receive a short video showing you the campsite, the camp kitchen, outhouse, etc. as well as instructions for parking.

I've tent camped at D'Ranch several times. Ted and Tracey are always the best! Chose a cabin this time. Perfect for my needs. Basic with no electric or running water. Port a john nearby. Great place to relax. Good place to see some wildlife.

Weekend Trip to D'Ranch at Clearwater
What went well... Everything! The cabin was just what we needed. The property is lovely and I loved using the kayak on the cove.
I saw Herons, ducks and other water birds and a few amphibians.
They had a great bonfire on Saturday night and my wife and I really enjoyed talking with Tracey and Ted.
All in all a great trip at a great site.

1 night at The Sacred Valley Community
This "tiny house" was very well set up. There are light switches and nice light fixtures, electric plugs, and a window unit - all of which work if you use the generator. I didn't try the generator because I didn't want to listen to the noise, but it was very well done. It is tinier than tiny - I would call this a "micro cabin" - it was probably an 8'x10' total footprint. I got a little claustrophobic trying to sleep - it has 2 very comfortable queen mattresses bunked in that tiny space along with a countertop and bathroom. But, it was beautiful, well equipped, and very remote, which I loved. I could wander over to the garden area or keep completely to myself, which was great to have options. 4wd required. I would definitely stay again!

Weekend Trip to D'Ranch at Clearwater
The Ranch is so cool and beautiful. I loved that they could accommodate so many different styles of stays, primitive, semi primitive all the way to B&B. The kayaks were great and I saw couples enjoying the paddle boat.
The cabin was clean and comfortable.
Most of all Tracey and Ted were phenomenal host! Friendly, attentive and helpful, but respectful of the guests privacy.
This place is a gem.

My kids didn't want to leave! They loved seeing all the animals but took a special liking to the two dogs, Ellie and Harley. We got a tour of the property on the four-wheeler, took the canoe out, had a fire, and enjoyed the cool weather and sounds of the roosters in the morning. We'd definitely love to return sometime. Great location and awesome hosts!

Weekend Trip to Cairn Cottage~kayaks~hot tub~LOZ
This was a great spot! Such a cute cottage that's very well decorated and kept clean by the owners :) the hot tub was GREAT! We went when it was cooler so it was so nice to have. Easy access to the water if you want to go kayaking and a lovely conservation park with hiking and river access! All and all, a very lovely area if you just want to get away from things and relax, this cottage makes it so easy to do so

We setup here as a base camp for a Father Daughter hunt as we hunted a nearby property. Tracey and her Husband were awesome and even let the girls milk a cow. The farm animals are well taken care of and such an enjoyment for the girls to interactive with. The dogs were a huge hit too and love to play fetch. The setting is beautiful overlooking a small lake. Thank you again for your hospitality.
