We are located NW of Kearney in a rural setting. There are neighbors around us but not too close. Being this close to a town, there are many activities and places to go. A few miles to the West of us is Cottonmill Park which has a good sized lake and hiking trails. Within an hours drive there are fishing/boating and recreational lakes. The great Sandhills of Nebraska are just a little over an hour North to get to. Pioneer Village is South about an hour and the Hastings museum is about the same distance only a little East and South.

This is one of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. I am driving across the country and needed a place to stay in Nebraska. The site was private while still being close to the road. I ended up putting my soft top down and sleeping under the milky way! I felt far safer here than a motel, thank you to the host for sharing your land.

It was easy to pull-in and park our trailer. The site provided power & water and we had 3-4 “bars” of 5G using T-Mobile. Using the directions provided, we had no problem finding the location. The host was very responsive. We plan to return, next time we’re in the area!

Gorgeous spot! Hosts were so kind and helpful. We were facing some nasty weather and they made sure to let us know where to seek shelter with them if needed. It wasn't needed, but just the fact they cared enough to offer was so nice. Finding the place was easy, and the space is level and quiet.

This campsite was beautiful. In a large green cow pasture with scattered trees. A wonderful way to experience the great outdoors. The bathrooms are far from the pasture campsites though, so if you need to be close to a bathroom all night this site will not workout.

It was great to set up in the pasture for the night and camp with the cows. We appreciated how private the site was and that we could take a shower before getting back on the road. Great spot in Nebraska! We'd love to camp again next time we're coming through.

Camping at Jennifer’s spot was an incredible experience! The clear night skies were breathtaking, with stars shining brilliantly. As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe and at ease throughout my stay. I’d absolutely return and would love to spend more time enjoying the peaceful outdoor setting and visiting the animals.
