20% OFF all winter stays this year Check Us Out! : ) Use Code VNMTEOQ5 Welcome to Sky Valley Acres, where history meets the horizon. Come join us out in our little slice of country paradise, 30 acres of natural prairie and woodlands nestled on the highest peak in the county overlooking the historic Twin Mounds Valley. Not too far from home, but just far enough to feel like an adventure, we are conveniently located 20 minutes outside the quaint college town of Stillwater, Oklahoma. Our sites offer both large open areas for vehicles and activities paired with private wooded forest for tents and seclusion. Individual sites are many acres apart designed in such a way that every experience is peaceful and private. We offer maintained camping sites which are easily accessible that come with amenities, in addition to our alternative primitive camping experience for the pros further in the Backwoods. What ever your needs or preference we have a spot for you! We have easy access to two main highways with the nearest Walmart 10 minutes away, not to mention great cell phone coverage for all the main providers at most locations on the property. A little bit about how we started. Like most of us, we were in desperate need of a place to get away from the bustle and grind of daily life, to slow down, decompress, and destress. This land the universe had waiting for us, gave us just that! It changed our lives and now we are excited to open up this sanctuary to others who share our passion for the great outdoors! Interestingly, each year we find out more about our home, from its Native American prehistory, to its 19th century Civil War conflict, and most recently, a lost article published in the 1940s in the local Oklahoman gazette that enticingly gossips about long lost Buried Treasure!

I cannot wait to come back next spring! The property is beyond beautiful! The cute outhouse, upcoming shower and hammocks just add to the fun atmosphere here. The hosts are absolutely incredible! They checked on me, gave me some “newbie” advice and assistance and were just the sweetest ever!

This was such a special place, and we loved the wooded seclusion of site 5. The hammock was a treat for our daughters, and our dogs loved roaming around off leash. The trails and property are so well maintained, and the owners were incredibly hospitable. We'll definitely be back!

We had a great time at site 2. Easy access to the composting toilet (which is awesome!) for my toddlers and it was nice and open for them to run around. The picnic table, hammocks, and grate for cooking over the fire were awesome additions as well!! We will definitely be back, and are excited to try out the more primitive camping sites Ash has to offer!

We loved camping on Ash’s land. The site was easy to get to and set up perfectly. The fire pit had an iron grate you could lay across it making it easy to cook over the open fire. We will definitely be back!

Well kept and maintained site. Site 2 was very open so my dog could run around. Nice firepit with cooking grate. It rained while I was here but it was grassy so wasn't muddy at all. Will definitely come back!

Beautiful location and wonderful hosts. Cows behind you, birds all around you singing happily and listening to the coyotes talking at night was amazing. They have the most adorable outhouse! 5 stars all day. They are very active on the app so if you have any questions I'm sure they'll be quick to reply. Highly recommend if you're passing through.

Sky Valley Acres is beautiful! Ash & Michelle are excellent hosts. There are several nice, private camping spots and there is a two-private-stall compost outhouse on the property close and convenient. You wouldn't normally think something like an outhouse would be cute but they put effort into making it nice. Very responsive hosts. Nice land. Convenient outhouse. I look forward to camping at Sky Valley Acres in the near future. Cheers!

Campsite was awesome! Privacy from other group was great, the composting toilet was incredible, you just have to see it to believe it! Great access, trash by the gate, I mean probably the best experience we have had so far - INFINITY STARS!!! We were there for the Boys from Oklahoma Shows for the weekend and it was super convenient to get back and forth from Stillwater! We will definitely be back again!! :):)

We tent camped at site 2, which is the closest site to the clean out house. Plenty of space to spread out and have vehicles close by. Our spot was a lot more open to the wind, but site 3 up the hill is well protected. Property is easy to access from a narrow gravel road. We were about 25 min away from Boone Pickens Stadium and this Hipcamp was the perfect compliment to our concert experience!

Really nice and quiet primitive camping just outside of Stillwater. Lots of space, hammock, table and fire ring provided. They even had solar lights to mark our camp site. The outhouse was very clean. Well done!

What really stood out is the serene sound of nothing. I took my birthday trip out here for a couple nights to get away the hustle of city life. Me and my fiancée took huge advantage of the hammock and read pretty much the entire time. Very well kept grounds and an amazing host offering to pull us out of the mud if it had taken place. Would 100% recommend!
