When my husband brought me here for the first time, I started to notice all of the natural tree circles in the woods. I knew this place was magical and indeed has been. Please come and experience the energy of our forest. Our favorites include owls, deer, eagles ... to name just a few. Come to meditate, to reconnect, relax and be STILL. Learn more about this land: Pitch a tent in the lovely Pottawatomie County in Oklahoma. We have created a wonderful site in the middle of the forest for you! Lovely oak trees as far as the eye can see, barred owls, deer, hundreds of species of birds. Feel free to explore in designated areas (ask me about other areas outside your campsite), feel nature's rejuvenating energy and be in our sacred space. The site is walk in only, about 100 yards, so bring your wheel barrow or cart, although the property is 15 acres in its entirety, the campsite is on about a quarter acre with one large central site and a few alcove sites. We do have neighbors up the hill, but there is NO Visual of these houses. Sometimes neighborhood kids ride their 4 wheelers down our road and use our cul-de-sac to turn around, and you might occasionally hear them, but you can't see them and they can't see you, but most of the time it's very quiet.

Welcome to your private RV spot! We’ve got everything you need for a comfortable stay—50 Amp hookup, water, sewer, and trash service are all included. Our 3-acre property is at the end of a quiet rural neighborhood, giving you privacy with just a touch of community. You’ll be sharing the space with one other RV tucked near our home, plus a small Airbnb that stays pretty booked throughout the year. The drive in is easy and scenic, with a gravel road that winds through a peaceful area of modular homes. Just 7 minutes down the road, you’ll find the town center with restaurants, bars, and a few neat historic museums to check out. We’re pet-friendly, so bring your furry companions along! There’s no fencing, but there’s lots of open space for them to roam and sniff around. If you're staying a while, you’re welcome to use our shared laundry room—or, if you'd rather skip that chore, we can handle your laundry for a small fee. Simple, peaceful, and just enough of everything. We’d love to have you stay.

3. Iconium Farms

39mi from Shawnee · 15 sites · Tents, RVs · Langston, OK

Said of Iconium Farms from a guest through Boondockers RV and Harvest Host: “If you are looking for a pristine, natural setting for a peaceful evening, consider making the trek along the brilliant, red dirt roads and relax here. The music of dozens of birds sound like a choir and serenaded the morning and evening air. The sunset was a kaleidoscope of color, popping with magenta, ochers, and tangerine hues which later welcomed a brilliant lightning storm, illuminating the OK skies with spider lightning! Just gorgeous. If you are lucky, you will meet the irresistable landowner, a unique, creative individual who is happy to tell you the history of the land and his ambitious vision for the future. Brush up on your animal footprints. There are a lot to discover!” - Glenn H (cubbyvanlife) 1889 LandRun Legacy new venture in development. Lovely trails through wooded forests with dry creeks, gullies, and intermittent creeks fed by 1500 acres starting south about 2 miles. Tall red dirt walls along ravines that wind dramatically in southern portion of property. Creeks have water and fish, yet small perch with slow cascading waterfalls when rains have come. Areas to camp near creek. Big 10 acres field good for flying kites. Eastern Redcedar groves untouched for ages. Lots of no impact camping spots. Our Farm is in it’s start up year and we have and work hard. Some find it fun to watch and learn about sustainable growing. This will be developed further into glamping destination with disc golf course starting in a couple of years.

Camping here was a great experience! The trail to the campsite was well maintained and everything was so scenic. It was very refreshing and we were able to see so many birds as well. Our toddlers had a blast and Monica was very helpful and kind!
