I found my 10 acres 18 years ago, cleared a road and moved a little camper onto the property. During the next year my home, barn and dock were built. I have 2 tent camping areas for rent with a view of the Leadenwah Creek. There is 1 large fire pit area which is shared if both sites are occupied. My sweet lab, Stella, lives outside mostly, so she will be around and loves to visit the campers. This is a NO SMOKING property.

We bought this Airstream in 2022 as an old shell. It was junky and a mess, and not much in it other than old scraps and junk. We renovated it in 2022 and 2023, and turned it into a cozy, midcentury modern style Glamper. We tried to plan for every comfort you could want or need, from wifi and a smart TV, to a cute bathroom, Keurig and an Air Fryer. We hope you love it as much as we do. Please note, it is tight quarters, especially for more than two people and large framed people. For this reason, we only allow two guests. We live on a busy street, but the backyard is peaceful and serene. The airstream is parked next to our creek, where waterfowl abound. Only one vehicle allowed.

3 nights at Camp on the Creek

Frances’s tent sites are nothing short of magical. They sit right on the edge of a beautiful saltwater marsh where you can watch redfish feeding, dolphins playing, and the most glorious sunrises you’ll ever see. The natural splendor of the place is only outshined by Frances herself; warm, welcoming, and genuinely hospitable. She makes you feel at home from the moment you arrive. If you’re looking for a peaceful, scenic, and memorable camping experience, this is the spot. Truly a gem.

Weekend Trip to Edisto River Luxury RV Resort

Truly a hidden gem. My daughter and I had a daddy/daughter weekend while mom was away for work. It was the most relaxing trip, very peaceful with the exception of some people doing what I assume was target practice for awhile. The site was excellent. We spent most of the time in the gazebo watching movies. The hot tub is different than pictured and is an inflatable one. Make sure it's on and running when you get there. Very nice bathroom and OUTDOOR shower. I already have another trip planned in a a few months. Dustin was excellent with communication and always responded very quickly.

Our stay at Frances’s place was absolutely wonderful. The property is stunning — wide open downs, breathtaking sunsets, and that golden-hour light that makes everything glow. It’s a peaceful, beautiful spot that feels both grounding and inspiring. We also really enjoyed sharing the space with another camper — everyone was very friendly and very generous, which made the experience even more special. Frances’s generosity, warmth, and hospitality are truly unparalleled. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and were comfortable throughout our stay. You can feel how much care and heart she puts into hosting. We left feeling relaxed, grateful, and already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommended!

I love this Hip camp site! I can't really say enough about it. Although, it rained for two of my three days I still made the best of it. I definitely would recommend for camping, tent , car , RV... They can accommodate you. And there is so much space and trails around the property to walk.

There's a cool vintage truck that made for an awesome photo op

We really enjoyed camping here! It's a beautiful and peaceful property. My dog loved jumping off the dock trying to catch the shrimp jumping out the the water as the tide rolled out. There's an abundance of wildlife here. We saw armadillos running though the trees, caught little crabs scurrying across the dock, and watched the shorebirds hunt the fish that were schooling everywhere. Fran is a wonderful, kind host. It was also a pleasure having her dog, Stella, join us around the fire and our walks down to the water. I definitely plan on staying here again!
