FeatherStone Farm
1 site · Lodging13 acres · Mayfield, KY
After 4 years of living in a large house in the middle of town we decided try tiny living! We sold our house and bought and remodeled a 5th wheel camper and lived in the country with Emily's parents. During this time land down the road came up for sale and we decided this would be our perfect forever home! We realized we loved the tiny life so we renovated one section of the barn as our studio apartment and the rest is either shared with the sheep or used as the location for our barn market! The original tobacco section of the barn is estimated to be around 75-100 years old. Emily and her family have lived on this road for more than 70 years so we have lots of stories about this area! The farm also has what we call "The Tiny Cottage" located here. It's a small shoppe that is filled with hand made and USA made products we keep stocked year round. The trails on the farm were made by Jordan. He carefully mapped out each one to require as little disturbance to the trees as possible and he did it all with a rake and weedeater! We love our home and sharing it with others just makes it more fun living here! We work hard to take care of the land and animals we share it with. If you have any questions always feel free to ask! Otherwise we will do our best to let you have your privacy while you stay here.Learn more about this land:Enjoy a glamping experience on our 13 acre farm. You can wonder the trails etched through the fields and woods. Enjoy the stars from the comfort of the 16ft wide and 10.5 ft tall Star Gazer Lotus Bell Tent decorated in mid century furniture. Have a campfire or watch a movie projected on the inside of the tent. You can also meet our “farmily” that consists of ponies, sheep, chickens and a few other fur babies running around! They are friendly and full of personality! We also have a monthly market in the barn with a select few artisan vendors with a range of handcrafted goods. Come experience this quaint little place that we call FeatherStone Farm.*A few things to note: - We have barn markets and the occasional pop up at our farm. If you want to book your stay around these events feel free to message us. - There is no shower at the campsite. The site has a private porta-potty that is serviced weekly and a hand washing station outside. We provide a wash basin in the tent and water bottles are kept in the mini fridge. - Be prepared to walk to your campsite. In some seasons it may be possible to drive your car to the fenced area of the tent but usually the hay field is too grown up to do that. We provide a lantern at the tent but it's always a good idea to keep a spare handy in case you are coming or going after dark. -The bell tent has access to electric and we keep a mini fridge, snacks, a coffee maker, French press and even a mini waffle maker there for your convenience as well as a cast iron skillet and grill to go over the campfire for outdoor cooking. - While the fence is for your privacy please remember this site is at our home. Dogs running around, sheep grazing, and occasionally chickens free ranging should be expected. -We do have poison ivy on the property so be aware when going on the trails or if you decide to go off the paths in the field or woods.The tent has two heating options: electric space heater and Mr. Buddy propane heater. Mr. Buddy Propane heater MUST be turned OFF when sleeping as well as the propane tank its self. NEVER run the propane heater when sleeping. The heater does have safety features and there is a carbon monoxide detector and proper ventilation, but you can never be too cautious with gas heaters. Thank you!

Lee Family Farms
1 site · RV10 acres · Cumberland City, TN
My husband and I were living in a camper behind a minute mart when we found this small farm with a one room cabin nestled in the woods.
We realized that we could live our dream of farming but little did we know that we would end up rescuing discarded animals from different places.
We started out with 2 horses and a donkey and then moved up to goats, pigs and a variety of birds, 2 more donkeys, a mini horse and mini cows.
It has been an adventure.
My favorite rescue is a large goat named Billie (I know it is not original).
Billie was tied to a log chain for the 1st 6 years of his life, now he has 8 acres to roam around on, a girlfriend and some other buddies.
He is definitely living the good life.
We love this place and hope to continue rescuing animals to give them a safe place to live out the rest of their days.
Learn more about this land:
This spot is near a garden and woods. Electric and water near the site. There is a barn where the animals gather. Play area for children. You will hear roosters crowing in the morning, dogs barking, goats bleating, horses neighing. It is a slightly sloping site tucked into the trees with a great view of the field with cows and donkeys. You will also see our cabin and be near a permanent camper. You are welcome to pet the animals. Lucy the piano playing pig and Banjo the dancing goat love petting. We are a working farm so you will see us out and about doing chores. If you are trailering horses, we have a pasture that they can stay in with water troughs. There is a lake nearby, climbing area about 32 miles away, fishing and paddling all within 20 miles. Farms are not quiet places. We will leave you alone so you have privacy but we have extremely friendly dogs that might want to visit. If you are looking for a farm experience then come on down for a night or two.

Farm camping in Lake Washington guide
Overview
The second-largest natural lake in the state, Lake Washington is a beloved recreation area among Seattle-area residents and visitors, particularly in the summer months. Fishing is an incredibly popular activity on the lake, with a variety of salmon and bass, as well as resident coastal cutthroat trout. (An annual freshwater license is required.) That said, you needn’t be an angler to enjoy the lake, and there are plenty of great parks and natural areas with beaches, ideal for swimming, kayaking, or simply gazing out over the waters on your next lakeside camping trip.
Where to go
Seward Park
If you're in Seattle, sprawling Seward Park is among the best places to enjoy Lake Washington. This 300-acre expanse (120 acres of which is old-growth forest) features walking trails, picnic areas, a playground, tennis courts, seasonal beaches, and a fishing pier.
Mercer Island
Situated between Bellevue and Seattle, Mercer Island is the only island in Lake Washington. Unsurprisingly, there are plenty of spots to access the lake dotted across the island, from Clarke Beach Park in the south to spacious Luther Burbank Park in the north.
Kirkland
On the eastern banks of Lake Washington, Kirkland and its surrounding towns offer easy access to the lake to residents and visitors alike, with numerous waterfront parks available for public use. This area also offers some of the best fishing opportunities on the lake, with public piers at Juanita Beach Park, Waverly Beach Park, Houghton beach Park, Marsh Park, David E Brink Park, and Settlers Landing. Expect to find RV parks and private campgrounds in the area.
Saint Edward State Park
Spread out over 326 acres on the northeastern shores of Lake Washington, this state park offers picnic areas, playgrounds, and plenty of hiking, mountain biking, and equestrian trails. With around 3,000 feet of shoreline, the park is a great spot for accessing the lake—fishing and kayaking are particularly popular activities here.
