In the early 1900’s an iconic red barn was built near the hilltop along the road between the old Mt. Zion community and Collinsville. Later in the 1900’s, the land was mostly abandoned by its owners, but not by the local fishermen! They knew its woodland fishing pond never dried up, and so was able to support a better population of fish. They also dumped a cornucopia of old motorcycles, cars and farm equipment in the front field. What else were you supposed to do with scrap metal in North Texas horse country? In 2002 the Holtzman family purchased the 35 acre tract of land. They dug a front pond for swimming and paddling, buried the scrap metal (although occasional bits of history still work their way up!), restored and brought horses back to the barn, and began consulting with local biologists about supporting native wildlife. April Holtzman launched Camp Tonkawa Outdoor Learning Center on the property to provide a beautiful, safe place for families to explore and learn about nature. Camp Tonkawa continues to host overnight and day camps with educational programing organized around various themes including: Native American culture, nature awareness, basic camping skills, primitive survival, organic gardening, herbology, outdoor cooking, western days, and horsemanship. We also host field trips and frequently conduct Girl Scout journeys for all levels in the "It's Your Planet, Love it!" series. Due to Covid-19, which limited working with groups for our educational programing, we joined Hip Camp where families who could isolate in nature together on our property.

Over the years, thousands of guests have enjoyed our property, which features an outdoor pergola, a fire pit, a prayer path, a seasonal pond, and a vibrant garden. You will share the land with our chickens and ducks, as well as a variety of wildlife including rare and native birds, deer, raccoons, opossums, coyotes, and amphibians. When we moved here in 2017, we chose to cohabitate with the land by avoiding all chemicals, including pesticides, herbicides, and synthetic cleaning products in the cabins. Over the last nine years, we have seen the tree frog population flourish and naturally manage the mosquitoes, while the native foliage thrives even in harsh temperatures. Our soil is amazing, and though we may be a small plot of land, you will enjoy seeing nature at its absolute best. As a bonus, we are conveniently located 10 to 45 minutes from a wide array of outdoor recreation. You will have easy access to Mineral Wells State Park, the new state park in Pilot Point, Lake Ray Roberts, Chandor Gardens, Clark Gardens, and Possum Kingdom Lake.

This is a great property with a lot of potential for adventure. You can burn almost everything around responsibly. There is a lot of firewood. Right now there are no bathrooms or facilities of any kind except for a small goat shed. there is a ton of scrap metal and random random things in a pile great for digging and scrapping in all free. Finders keepers. There are some really old giant trees on the property. One is probably the largest tree I have ever seen in Collin County. There is a seasonal creek that runs through the back and sort of a swappy pond in the front. The Prairie in the front is some sort of different grass than usual. It might be native buffalo grass or something else weird like that. The property needs a lot of cleanup, so I would make a good to work campers or groups wanting a working party. The land could use some work, I could contribute a lot of free beer and food to people cleaning up the place before I build my house.

Experience a secluded forest setting close to incredible hikes, bike trails, and lakes. Our two cabins are both unique and functional, providing the perfect balance of nature within close proximity to several small towns. Over the years, thousands of guests have enjoyed our property, which features an outdoor pergola, a fire pit, a prayer path, a seasonal pond, and a vibrant garden. You will share the land with our chickens and ducks, as well as a variety of wildlife including rare and native birds, deer, raccoons, opossums, coyotes, and amphibians. When we moved here in 2017, we chose to cohabitate with the land by avoiding all chemicals, including pesticides, herbicides, and synthetic cleaning products in the cabins. Over the last nine years, we have seen the tree frog population flourish and naturally manage the mosquitoes, while the native foliage thrives even in harsh temperatures. Our soil is amazing, and though we may be a small plot of land, you will enjoy seeing nature at its absolute best. As a bonus, we are conveniently located 10 to 45 minutes from a wide array of outdoor recreation. You will have easy access to Mineral Wells State Park, the new state park in Pilot Point, Lake Ray Roberts, Chandor Gardens, Clark Gardens, and Possum Kingdom Lake. We look forward to hosting you in our chemical-free sanctuary!

This is a great property with a lot of potential for adventure. You can burn almost everything around responsibly. There is a lot of firewood. Right now there are no bathrooms or facilities of any kind except for a small goat shed. there is a ton of scrap metal and random random things in a pile great for digging and scrapping in all free. Finders keepers. There are some really old giant trees on the property. One is probably the largest tree I have ever seen in Collin County. There is a seasonal creek that runs through the back and sort of a swappy pond in the front. The Prairie in the front is some sort of different grass than usual. It might be native buffalo grass or something else weird like that. The property needs a lot of cleanup, so I would make a good to work campers or groups wanting a working party. The land could use some work, I could contribute a lot of free beer and food to people cleaning up the place before I build my house.
