We stayed at the honeysuckle site and it was perfect! The site was about 75 feet from the parking area and they also have carts that you can borrow to get all your stuff to the site. The trails were perfect for my 4 year old and he made friends with Spooky, the resident dog! We followed Spooky as he excitedly showed us around all the parts of the trail. The campsite was very quiet and we couldn't hear or see any other campers around us. We will definitely be back and we'll bring friends! My son won't stop talking about how much he misses Spooky!

Weekend Trip to Hickman Hideaway

It’s truly a hideaway! From the moment we checked in with the host on Friday, we didn’t see another soul all weekend — and that’s exactly what made it perfect. The peace and quiet here are unmatched. The forest around camp was alive with sounds of nature, and we even had a family of raccoons wander by one evening (so definitely keep your food locked up!). The views are absolutely breathtaking — sunrise from this site is something you’ll never forget. I captured a few photos from sunrise and even some night shots, and they turned out incredible. This place would be magical in the fall when the colors start to change. Just like other reviewers mentioned, having a 4x4 or AWD is smart. Our Crosstrek handled it easily, but if it rains, things could get interesting. If you’re looking for a peaceful, secluded getaway surrounded by nature, Hickman Hideaway is exactly that. We left feeling recharged and can’t wait to come back! 🌲✨

The space was well set up, path are clearly marked, and information was communicated clearly from the host. Getting to the tent site location is not for the faint of heart, though is very doable if you are willing and able, just be ready to put in some sweat equity pulling the cart they provided. I would estimate the trek back up to the parking spot from the tent site, with the cart fully loaded with gear, was about 12 to 15 minutes with several pauses to catch my breath. Environment was beautiful and the smell of cedar was very pungent. Plenty of wildlife to behold when pausing to notice. Amenities were clean and in good working order. Outdoor shower had nice hot water! Thank you for allowing me to share your sweet place.

The whole experience was just outstanding! Open line of communication from start to finish, the hospitality, and being able to have rented the camping location at such a short notice and for as dirt cheap as it was! My girlfriend and I loved and appreciated the every second of it. And especially since this was my girlfriend's first time ever camping. We've already discussed plans for our next little getaway there, as we ABSOLUTELY will be returning.

We took the kids camping for one night and stayed at the “Way Out” camp site. The kids are 4 and 5 years old and they had so much fun. The “Way Out” site is well… way out! The wagons are a huge help, but you’ll still have to put in some effort (especially when leaving as it is uphill on the way back to the parking lot). I highly recommend staying here and experiencing it! All the sites and cabins look great. We will definitely be back. Hopefully soon!

We loved tent camping on Joe's land! Joe and his family are so welcoming! My kids really enjoyed seeing all of their animals and playing with their dogs and cats. We followed their dog, Spooky, all through the trails. Their land is beautiful and the trails are well-maintained. It was a short walk from the car to the campsite. I couldn't ask for a better place to get away. We spent one afternoon and drove into Tulsa to Gathering Place. My kids had a blast! This trip was just what my kids and I needed! We will definitely be back in the future!

My first time doing something like this and my boyfriend and I had a blast. So serene, peaceful, and beautiful. The dome had an amazing view and I was so happy we had a place to sit outside. I was so in love with all the animals and they were all so sweet. Shower was amazing as well (especially during sunset). Finally, I was worried about the temp of the dome during August but the AC was awesome! Thank you!
