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.

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.

That was a nice mellow 2 days. First morning, the beautiful rusty brown bulls were curious about my rig, but didn't come too close. It's nice to hear the horses as well, and saw a few. No wifi, but they offer a shower which is a nice perk. thanks Jennifer and family

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.
