We loved our stay at Kohler Farms! The campsite was absolutely beautiful—right along the creek, which provided the most peaceful background of babbling water all weekend long. The hosts were incredibly communicative and thoughtful, even covering the kindling so everything stayed dry for us. Tons of firewood was available, and the site itself felt private and well-kept.
Their two farm dogs stopped by to say hello a couple of times and were so sweet with our pup—it was such a fun surprise. And wow, their shire horses are stunning! Seeing them up close was magical.
The only thing to note is that you can hear some road traffic at night, but overall, this spot was serene and so worth it. We’d absolutely come back!

I appreciated Joy's helpfulness and communication. I fully intended to unplug for the weekend, and was content to choose a spot in the back 40 without cell signal. It was only a few steps to get to signal, but I put the phone into airplane mode and enjoyed complete solitude.

Our camping adventure did not go as planned this trip due to weather. We’ve stayed here a few times before and the hosts are always kind and welcoming. It was nice to see their older pup, Callie, again, and their new pup. Even with the mud from the rain it’s still a beautiful property. Look forward to a future trip.

My husband and I loved our visit to Liberty Acres RV Campground and Zoo. Owner Alison was a delightful and helpful. Eight sites with full hookups - water, sewer and electric. We had 30 amp for our 23-foot travel trailer located next to the llamas up the hill from the pond with 4 well spaced sites on a gravel pad with a picnic table surrounded by grass. The site was quiet and peaceful with amazing “Out of Africa” sounds at dawn & dusk. The llamas provided us endless company-fascination on both sides was mutual. Our golden retriever loved his new friends he could watch through the fence. He was very polite. No barking. Our cat watched the llamas and the friendly bluebirds through the window. The pond down the hill, past the other rv sites that were closer together, was lively with capybaras and geese.
There was a gravel road leading to the campsite s, which were level. The road allowed us to walk our pup in a loop from our site to the pond and up the road back to our site.
The zoo is farther up the road with lots of animals: brown zebras, ponies, kangaroos, monkeys, a sloth, tortoises, peacocks, emus and more. No dogs allowed in zoo.
The zoo is only officially open on Saturday and Sunday to the public for $15 person, but Alison let us wander off hours when the gates were open and the zoo team was working. Several great white Pyrenees were keeping watch at the zoo and a 14-year-old grey weimaraner named Zoe was providing zoo tours. Tip: Get the WiFi code no Verizon service

The shire horses and creek to play in were a treat for the kids. Our group enjoyed the location and plan to return, hopefully when the assortment of Hostas are blooming. The Hipcamp description was accurate. Although it is near the highway and hosts residence where you can hear a truck every once an a while, the site is quite secluded. Nice flat open mowed grassy field for camping.

Great place to stay. The hosts are super friendly and ensured we had everything we needed.
This is a great option if you want to visit Hanging Rock State Park but don’t want to stay at the campground there.
This would be perfect for big families as well. There is plenty of open space to throw a football or a baseball. The creek is nice and isn’t very deep.
I had good cell reception with Verizon.
Stores are close if you need something as well.
We had a great stay and will definitely return.

What a great experience. We set up our campervan on site 7, a big open field. Very quiet. The moon rising was breathtaking. In the morning we met Joy. She brought us carrots and introduced us to all the animals. AMAZING!
Water easily accessible. Uwharrie only 15 minutes away. Fun hiking and mountain biking!

Another great camping trip to Kohler Farms on the books! We had colder than expected weather, rain, and a little mud but that did not stop us from having a great time. Sitting by the creek listening to the water trickle while watching the gorgeous horses directly across from it was so soothing and relaxing. This is one of our favorite spots. We are looking forward to coming back again.
