Such an adorable cozy and lovely area! The accommodations were nice and everything was well kept and clean and organized, lovely hosts as well! Would totally come back for sure during spring or summer season, came during harsh rain and wasn’t able fully explore and stay on site but was still such a nice experience! They also have a small shop and we were able to buy pumpkins! Very cute! Very lovely!

Magical farm, loved all the animals and secluded campsite. Had a shop on the farm selling eggs and other food items from their farm, if that’s your jam.

We really enjoyed our weekend here! We were close to Middleton, we enjoyed seeing the animals frequently on the farm, and the hosts were great communicators and very welcoming! There was a bit of walking (maybe 1/4 mile?) between the parking area and the camp site, which made setting up a bit difficult, but not terrible. Our site was private and spacious. There was definitely traffic noise, which we didn't mind and at night was like a white noise machine. The only bathroom was an outhouse, which my 10 year old struggled with, but that builds character right? :D

I loved camping at Terra! So peaceful. There was some road noise, but that was fine. We set up really late, so we took the closest site to the parking lot. Would come back again!

The man that showed us around was very friendly. There were several sites to choose from. We found a large, flat space to set up camp. The bugs were minimal and there was a fire ring. The space was very private and safe. The walk from the car was pretty long though and most of it uphill. Also that is where the toilet is located.

It was a fantastic place! WOW! So much to do, beautiful spaces, ponds, and a great hiking trail that my pups loved! Very well kept and the bathroom/shower was much appreciated! Only spent one night, but would be great for multiple days.

We liked waking up to the pig squeals and rooster crows instead of an alarm clock. The owners and staff were all very friendly and welcoming. Very well kept cute little outhouse too.

Cedar hills is a lovely hidden gem. It was so freeing to just be sunbathing naked in nature. There weren't too many people so there was enough room to space out. Felt very comfortable as 2 women campers. Dennis was great! Will definitely be frequenting next season.

Stayed here for the second time and it was great! I had a nice, tucked in spot where I felt I had privacy but also just a short walk to the outhouse. Outhouse is clean and well stocked with everything you may need. I did not end up using the shower, but there is one if you need it. I had a nice walk around the property with the owner who told me all about his farm - which was very cool. Saw some lil piggies, dogs, tons of wildlife...all around great trip. As a solo, female traveler I did feel safe at this location.

Had an awesome time out there. Got to meet the owner, Dennis, which was great. The views are unreal, and there’s plenty of site options—whether you want to be up on the ridge looking out or down in the valley. Already looking forward to heading back next year.

This is our second time to cedar hills and again it was amazing. We were lucky enough to get site 20 with the swing and the beautiful view! The rains have for sure made it buggy but manageable! We had wonderful weather and we will be back again for sure it was quiet and everyone was polite and friendly
