There are few greater experiences than being in a position to introduce the incredible beauty and story of Arkansas to you, my fellow travellers. If you had told me just a couple years ago that I would be fully committed to a hospitality company, I wouldn't have believed it. However, it is a perfect fit. To be able to have a positive impact in people's lives, while also preserving and celebrating such a wonderful corner of our world, is more than I could have ever hoped for.
As the company has grown, I have been able to add some incredible people to share the vision and deliver on my promises to you.

Together, I believe that we have the chance to leave a far reaching positive impact on our world.

Get cozy in this rustic space. With a woodburning hot tub, this is a perfect spot to rest and recover after a day of hiking, canoeing, climbing. Kitchen, shower, composting toilet, deck, comfy linens and firepits bring you back to yourself! This tiny home is on 4 acres that is close to town but secluded by woods and nature.
The house utilizes a composting toilet and greywater systems, emphasizing sustainability. We designed this as a place to unplug, so don't have WiFi, a microwave or a TV.
The water is set to HOT, and we have it set there because the hot water heater is a travel trailer size, so it only puts out a small amount of hot water. Please don't burn your hands washing them!
Also feel free to turn it down if you need to, it is right under the kitchen sink.
We recommend expecting a quick shower or turning the water off and on to soak your hair if you need to wash it and then lathering up.
If the house is smelling bad in the bathroom, that is not normal and we will come and fix it.

Hello, my name is Hansen and I am honored to have the opportunity to share my mission with you. There are few greater experiences than being in a position to introduce the incredible beauty and story of Arkansas to you, my fellow travellers. If you had told me just a couple years ago that I would be fully committed to a hospitality company, I wouldn't have believed it. However, it is a perfect fit. To be able to have a positive impact in people's lives, while also preserving and celebrating such a wonderful corner of our world, is more than I could have ever hoped for.
As the company has grown, I have been able to add some incredible people to share the vision and deliver on my promises to you. Additionally, these partners have freed me to expand my commitment to our community through various awesome organizations. Together, I believe that we have the chance to leave a far reaching positive impact on our world.
Thank you, truly, for the opportunity to serve you and your family. You enable me to live in my favorite part of the world. Come let me show you why!

Get cozy in this rustic space. With a woodburning hot tub, this is a perfect spot to rest and recover after a day of hiking, canoeing, climbing. Kitchen, shower, composting toilet, deck, comfy linens and firepits bring you back to yourself! This tiny home is on 4 acres that is close to town but secluded by woods and nature.
The house utilizes a composting toilet and greywater systems, emphasizing sustainability. We designed this as a place to unplug, so don't have WiFi, a microwave or a TV.
The water is set to HOT, and we have it set there because the hot water heater is a travel trailer size, so it only puts out a small amount of hot water. Please don't burn your hands washing them!
Also feel free to turn it down if you need to, it is right under the kitchen sink.
We recommend expecting a quick shower or turning the water off and on to soak your hair if you need to wash it and then lathering up.
If the house is smelling bad in the bathroom, that is not normal and we will come and fix it.

Weekend Trip to Sunset Mountain
We reserved 2 nights in the Jesus Bus and absolutely LOVED our stay! Right when we pulled up, the friendly camp hosts greeted us to make sure we knew what we needed to have a great time. The sunset views over the mountain was gorgeous, and the other folks on the campground were an absolute delight. I especially loved the amenities like power and water inside the bus, and a nice clean flush toilet and shower just outside. The pool was still open and was very refreshing! I can't recommend this place enough. It's soothed my soul and got me ready for another week of work. Check them out! You won't regret it.

First time experiencing a working nudist farm. I wasn’t sure what I was getting into but James and his wife were awesome hosts and I felt immediately at ease. The property is beautiful with scenic views and the Jesus Bus was clean and spacious. You can’t beat dipping in the pool after a hike or relaxing in the hot tub or smaller dipping pool.
Highly recommend for a quiet and relaxing getaway while reconnecting with nature in the nude! It was so cathartic and liberating.

James and Amy are great hosts! We stayed on a Sunday night and we were the only ones there, except for James and Amy. They hung out with us around the fire pit and made sure everything was perfect for us! Everything was very clean and accommodating! James was cleaning the pool when we arrived, and made sure the hot tub was clean for us. We had a great time and will definitely be back multiple times! It was our first visit and we plan on buying a season pass! HIGHLY recommend!

Weekend Trip to Secluded Airstream Retreat
We enjoyed our stay on Hally’s family farm. The airstream is really cute. The hot tub is a good touch and the covered deck was great during a storm while also providing shade in the sun. The bed was and comfy and we had pretty much everything we needed. There were a couple hiccups but Hally was very responsive. The airstream is located about 30 minutes to Branson and we enjoyed going to table rock lake to swim.

Halley really has something special here. We were really impressed by the entire property; it was hilly, forested, covered in wildflowers, and overall just beautiful. The airstream itself was very well organized and decorated, we felt so cozy the entire weekend, especially since there was so much rain! The view from the trailer was amazing, we were treated to cows grazing and calves playing throughout our stay.
I cannot recommend this place enough. The hosts were communicative, the bed was comfy and who doesn't love an evening hot tub session. Easily a 5 star stay. We will be back!

We had such a great experience at the Rt. 62 campground. We stayed in the Bungalow cabin with our dogs. The grounds were lovely with a lot of different activities. The jacuzzi tub was a fun addition. The hosts were very easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay there again!

Sunset Mtn is growing! Each time I visit, the experience improves exponentially . That’s because James and his wife work tirelessly to make this place incredible for its guests. Breath-taking views, a safe clothing-optional/nudist environment, top notch ways to relax and take it all in! Buying a membership is the most cost-effective way to go, but if you’re just passing through the day rate is extremely fair for what you get. Look forward to friendly faces, a hot tub, trails to explore and great spots to book for an overnight stay….Above all, you get to do it all NUDE! I’ll be returning very soon!

What an awesome Hipcamp stay! The Airstream was clean and stocked with all the essentials, even quality toilet paper! We loved getting to have our doggo with us and appreciated the hot tub after longs days of hiking at Hercules Glades Wilderness. We ordered ribeyes from the ranch and highly recommend. Our city kids got to have a great ranch experience and we are happy they got to see how hard the ranch hands work to care for the animals. The ranch dogs were a major plus! We biked around the property during down time and the views were spectacular. This is a very quiet and secluded stay, but close to hiking, stream walking, bike parks and small town restaurants which was exactly what we wanted. We would stay here again any time we are planning to be in this part of the state!
