Seven Acres Campground

We moved to our seven acres in 1999 and have spent 15 years building the campground and furnishing the cabins with antiques specific to the era they are named after. It’s like getting to spend the night in your favorite part of a museum! The Fireman’s Bunker, WWII Room and the Victorian Room along with a claw foot rub to soak in!

The Victorian room is furnished from the turn of the century  with a few modern conveniences thrown in.

The bed is an antique full size bed with beautiful pillows and spread that accommodates up to two people.

The Shower House is shared by all of the cabins and is just a few steps from any cabin. The claw foot tub is a spa experience for sore muscles after a soak in the never ending tankless hot water with bath salts!


The airplanes that led to our victory grace the ceiling
