Quite undisturbed forest for 1/2 a century, used for duck hunting in the previous owners family for decades. I’ve started building a small cabin that’s unfinished hopefully completing in the coming years. Fishing pond and small seasonal creek flows after lots of rain. Excited to share it with others! Note: Daylight arrival at least an hour before sunset recommended! FYI out of firewood at this time

RockTree has it all—hills, a pond, a creek, and tons of wildlife, thanks to the many bird habitats on the property. You’ll see cardinals, woodpeckers, hawks, finches, squirrels, and even deer and coyotes have been spotted. It’s beautiful, peaceful, and private.
There’s a 1/4-acre track that loops around the property and can be biked, walked, or ridden on our four-wheelers. Currently, we have our 27-ft camper set up near the road for lodging, with plenty of private and convenient parking, as well as a small walk-in campsite at the bottom of the property near our peaceful creek.
The property is a big hill, so be prepared for a workout if you’re here to camp. We live on a quiet street, so please be respectful of our neighbors—they are older folks. We’re looking forward to having you!
COMING SOON: An RT Dome Retreat (clear and open with curtains) featuring a bed and bathroom, pet ducks, fishing and hunting, and so much more in the future. We love people, and hospitality is our gig! Come along on our journey as we make this an unforgettable experience for everyone who visits.

Group trip
The property was really a great location for our group that were overall new to camping with amenities nearby to pickup groceries or go to a diner when needed! We really enjoyed taking turns on the row boat, and playing card games and monopoly in the cabin area at night. The campsite felt really private, but there was some barking from dogs nearby at night, and sometimes gunshots.
Alex, the owner, was very responsive and helpful in finding local activities and resolving any issues we had during the stay!

I enjoyed this site so much! From the soft bedding and heated mattress pad, to the coffee and firewood, this place has everything you need to get away while keeping comfortable. I especially loved the sound of the leaves falling on the tent as I was winding down. Truly such a gem!

Weekend Trip to Vital Glamping Garden
This place is excellent. It's a great setup and conveniently located! We're not usually ones for glamping, but not having to take any gear or spend time setting up camp made the short weekend getaway stress-free. It's a great setup in the tent, and we didn't even have to bring our own hammocks. They've got a few games, and an outdoor shower WITH HOT WATER, and probably the cutest (and cleanest) latrine I've ever seen.
I've already recommended this place to my mother-in-law and numerous friends. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely loved it. Perfect place to get away. Awesome creepy “Cabin in the Woods” vibes. When the sun went down the night came alive. We watched Evil Dead 2 in the cabin. This was an amazing trip. I will be booking this exact spot again. Love it!!!

The tent site was excellent. It was very private, with clean sheets, comfortable beds, and a well-maintained tent. The kids had a great time playing in the creek and especially enjoyed hiking the small loop after dark to see the fairy lights. The bathroom was cleaner and nicer than expected, making the stay even more enjoyable.

Weekend Trip to Tails and Trails
The place was well maintained and was very comfortable. Bring a wagon, but getting gear from car to tent is worth the short, semi-hilly hike down the trail. Jeremy was a fantastic host and was great with communication. Our dog also really loved it there! Very relaxing and peaceful, although we could hear fireworks both nights from the race track. Our dog doesn't care or react to the sound of fireworks, but some may so wanted to add that.

Weekend Trip to Basecamp_outdoors
I brought my friend for his first glamping experience to Basecamp_outdoors and it couldn’t have been better!
There is every amenity here to make you feel at home. A full kitchen, hot shower, clean beautiful spacious tent with no bugs, a comfortable bed, a covered kitchen, an out house, a porch and a covered eating area. Plus lighting and heating and cooling.
Everything is an easy unload from where you park your cars.
Plus, there is an additional area down the path where there is a fire platform. Because it was hot, we skipped the fire and used it more as an extra patio and outdoor room.
We spent a lot of time there immersed in the beauty of the forest and sky and listening to the birds and music.
The main site is located nearer to the road and we hung a couple of tapestries in the lower eating area for a little extra privacy.
The host was very thorough in giving us directions and sending a video to show us how to turn on and use everything.
He also checked on us via text through the app to make sure we had everything we needed.
It was easily accessible and there is plenty to do in the area as far as hiking and water features.
If you’re considering this place, you should book it, I can’t imagine being able to find one better!
