The sites are not far from our barn, and we will leave one tractor bay open for you, just in case it was to rain and you want to use it as shelter.

Weekend Trip to Mountain View Mini Farm

This was our first HipCamp and it was perfect! The spot is lovely, gorgeous view, and a yard with lawn games. There are goats and rabbits on the farm. Our little girl loved seeing them. There were some bees in the port-a-potty but our host took care of them right away. Our toddler even had a hard time adjusting to sleeping in the tent but they never said anything. They were completely understanding and lovely. It was only 5 mins into town to great breakfast at a very reasonable price and great coffee. We’ll definitely be back.

Loved camping here! It was wonderfully quiet and well kept on a beautiful piece of property. Host was super nice, and flexible about me being a day late! Lots of super cute bunnies running around early in the morning too!
