Weekend Trip to Wine Trail Wilderness

Such a great experience! It’s pretty and you have anything you would ever want!

3 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

Great location, quiet at night, walk to a winery and 10 min drive to Little Grand Canyon. Awesome place to stay!

Weekend Trip to Wine Trail Wilderness

The peace and solitude was amazing. As we slept, not one car passed. We just hear the bard owl and an occasional whippoorwill. It was like being in a bird sanctuary, day and night. The entire area is clean and was pristinely mowed for our stay this weekend. The water Jon brought us was delicious! A big plus for us was its proximity to The Little Grand Canyon- a great hike.

Weekend Trip to Wine Trail Wilderness

The area was beautiful! We had a short stay, but Jon was a great host and super communicative.

1 night at Wine Trail Wilderness

Wow what a special place! Who knew Illinois was so incredibly beautiful? (Probably plenty of folks, but I did not!) The hosts were extremely helpful and kind, making sure I was all set in their beautiful campground. I initially chose this place simply because it felt “on the way” but I will absolutely make a point to come back in the future. Absolutely could not recommend more.

2 nights at Saco Valley Farm, LLC

Very secluded, lovely camping spot. Cant wait to go back.

Weekend Trip to Arcadia Valley Outdoors Land

I went camping last weekend and had a great experience overall. The location was beautiful and peaceful, and the surrounding area was perfect for exploring. I was also impressed with the infrastructure—it was well-maintained and made the stay very comfortable. Even though the weather was rainy at times, I still had a really good time. It didn’t take away from the experience at all. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Weekend Trip to Arcadia Valley Outdoors Land

The campground was very cozy and had plenty of amenities available. Easy driving distance from Elephant rocks and Johnson shut ins. Would definitely return!

Weekend Trip to Wine Trail Wilderness

John is a great host! He’s very accommodating and attentive. He’s very focused on how well the stay is and is eager to help. I highly encourage you to go if you’ve never been.

2 nights at Big River Outdoors Campground

We came in after a big storm when most people would not be out camping and were very happy with the site options. The place is HUGE and the owner was great suggesting local places to visit while we were in the area.

Weekend Trip to Arcadia Valley Outdoors Land

My husband and I had such a great time! We loved how quiet and secluded it felt. The tent sites were well maintained, especially considering all the recent bad weather. Arcadia is a special place for us...would love to make this a regular place! Thank you!!

2 nights at Wine Trail Wilderness

Jon's wine trail wilderness was awesome. The gazebo alone was an amazing feature, not to mention the bocce ball court and the awesome outhouse. My wife, our dogs and I were lucky enough to have the place to ourselves during our stay but I honestly don't think having neighbors would've been bad at all. We arrived pretty late in the evening and it was no problem for them at all Carla greeted us and showed us to the site and how to work everything. They already had 5gal of water ready for us and we added in the firewood extra and it was enough to last us 2.5 days, way more wood than a normal bundle you'd get anywhere. They also had a gas grill for campers to use. The location is awesome right on the shawnee wine trail, within walking distance of a couple wineries. Very glad I stumbled upon WTW and will definitely be going back for a future adventure!

Weekend Trip to Arcadia Valley Outdoors Land

Really nice campground with a creative vibe. The hot tub was spectacular. The location was great, and the tent pad perfect and soft.

Weekend Trip to Arcadia Valley Outdoors Land

We loved this campground, it was clean, well taken care of, nice personal touches at each camp sites. The owner was very friendly, he refunded one of our camp sites due to weather. I loved the vibe, the hot tub was a nice touch that we enjoyed. They also have a walking trail. Check this place out!!

3 nights at Hawks Bluff Farm Campground

Had a very pleasant stay at Hawks Bluff. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Electric and water were provided and reliable. Gravel campsites and roadways were well maintained. It was quiet and peaceful. Communication was great.

Weekend Trip to Hawks Bluff Farm Campground

We loved camping here!! It was cool that we got to choose where we wanted to set up our tent. We enjoyed the farm animals and hiking around the property. The outdoor kitchen was convenient with a stove/oven, fresh spring water and a sink. My son got to rock hunting which was a lot of fun. Everyone was so friendly and helpful!!

4 nights at Hawks Bluff Farm Campground

Very relaxing farm setting. Elizabeth and her family are extremely friendly and helpful. Had fun exploring and rock hunting. Showers and bathrooms were clean - electric worked great.

Weekend Trip to Wine Trail Wilderness

Jon runs one of the most well thought out and accommodating hipcamps we have ever stayed at. You will have a relaxing no worries experience staying on his beautiful woodland in southern Illinois! We don't stay anywhere else!

I had such a lovely time at Hawks Bluff! Elizabeth was so kind and helpful. Everything was so perfect- the lot of cute farm animals, the rock hunting expedition I attended, the cozy & very roomy tent, and the creek I got to take a dip in! Already planning my trip back.

The Shawnee National Forest surrounds us, accessible only by wandering roads, passing over creeks and alongside wineries. The trip is worth the beautiful drive, eventually arriving at "The Villa". Our home looks like an Italian villa, appropriately placed between two wineries in the middle of the Shawnee Forest. It is actually a straw-bale home with supplemental solar energy. Originally built as a Holistic Healing Center, we have converted it into a comfortable home with great vibes. We have converted an old grain bin into a "GrainZebo" just outside our home as a fun place to hang out with friends and family. We hope you enjoy the same relaxed feel we get while living out here in the woods, when you come visit. We will be happy to help you feel at home out here. We love sharing the Shawnee experience.

Camp, Swim, BBQ, wade the creek, enjoy the campfire! Primitive Camping. Very Private. Water is cool and clear. Open to the stars. A great place to commune with nature, or enjoy some peace and quiet! 12 mile creek runs directly through our property. Shallow and deep all throughout. Great for wading, swimming, floating, kayaking. Great small mouth fishing! We are approximately one mile by water from the St. Francois River. We have kayaked down the creek to the river for many years. The farm is very rural. We are 16 miles to the closest gas station, and 25 miles to town. There is no internet. Cell phone service is spotty at best. Currently a working farm, we have 2 high tunnels on the property behind the house, and our original market garden. Across the creek we are finishing up our 5 acre agroforestry planting. 3 acres of elderberries and 2 acres of blackberries. 28 acres, 3 on one side, and 25 on the other. The farm is located approximately 2 hours south of St. Louis. Fredericktown is 30 mins away. Food, Drinks, Golf, and Lalo's Mexican Restaurant!
