34mi from Menomonie · 3 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Hager City, WI

Previously a 100 acre century farm, this fertile land was tended to by generations of old time farmers. Their dairy cows pastured in areas which we now graze sheep. The restored quarry provided gravel for the nearby highway restoration and local projects.The property is currently a mix of hay ground, cropland, pasture, forest, and quarry. Twin sisters, Darla and Kayla, and their families live across the road from each other and own the surrounding 140 acres. They keep busy planting/tending trees, making hay, moving fence for grazing animals, operating a farm business called Twin Folk Farms (pastured meat, camps, etc), and raising their families.Learn more about this land:- This site is at the edge of a restored quarry, sheep pasture, and wooded hillside.- The site is tucked down a flat mowed path, so it feels very private and protected. - You can hike up a path to the sheep pasture. Sometimes sheep are there, sometimes elsewhere on the farm. You can hike the other direction and check out the restored quarry. We have paths all around the property, so feel free to respectfully explore.- You can't see the highway from this site, but you can hear it. It's super handy to be able to hop out of your campsite haven and onto the hwy, but be aware that you will hear vehicles.- There's a Mississippi river boat launch a few miles down the road, so feel free to park your boat at the bottom of the quarry driveway.- The Hay Creek riding trails are 25 minutes away, so contact us if you want to set up a place in the quarry to park your horses and trailer for the night. - We are certified to sell meat straight off of the farm (Twin Folk Farms), so contact us if you want to purchase your meat and have it delivered to your campsite.

Weekend Trip to Good Root Growers

I’m so grateful for my time at Hill Camp. It felt like a dream waking up every morning as the sun rose over meadows full of aster and goldenrod. Sue and Allen were warm and kind and gave me great tips for places to check out, including an Amish bakery nearby! At night, you can see the Milky Way and hear full convos between owls and katydids and even (I think!) coyotes. During hunting season, you might periodically hear gun shots in the distance, but only during the day. In terms of amenities, the port-a-potty is very close, and if you need access to a sink or electricity, they have both at their cute little greenhouse down the way. This was my first time camping at a farm, and I can’t wait to come back and do it all over again 🥹🌾✨

8 nights at Trapper Arts Camping Retreat

Camping at Eagles Point is the most relaxing, beautiful spot I’ve ever camped at. Quiet, sunrises and sunsets are breathtaking. Thank you for sharing that remarkable place! The hosts are fantastic!

It's a peaceful, beautiful site. The lake is especially gorgeous in the mornings. Everything was clean and ready to go when I got there and I couldn't ask for anything more. I had a great stay.

Nice quiet farm site nestled in the hills of western Wisconsin. The sumac site still felt private for being right next to the driveway.

1 night at Across The River Camp

Joyce was a lovely host and met us when we arrived. Her camping area was flawless and scenic. She provided very kind small touches and the environment was relaxing. We used her site as a stop over during a longer trip but would certainly recommend for a family just wanting to bond and spend a quiet weekend outside together. We have dogs and had the luxury of letting them frolic off leash because we had the place to our selves. There is a small county highway fully out of sight and you can only slightly hear vehicles.

We had water & electric hook ups at our site. And we caught some good sized bass and small sun fish. We didnt have any luck with northern but also unfamiliar with the area so that'd be on us. ;) we are used to goijg to places where campers are on top of each other with lots and lots of amenities because we have little kids. This place was the opposite but we loved it just as much! This trip was for just my husband and myself for our 9 year anniversary. We'd definitely come back with our kids but would probably stay at the Eagles Nest campsite for that trip just for the dock. But could totally do the same one with our kids too.

Good Root growers was amazing! The Sumac Camp was smaller then I expected but honestly it was perfect for my friends and I. There was 7 of us and two dogs. LOVED the greenhouse. And the Amish Bakery was delicious. The bakeries only take cash and it’s just a mile away! We had an amazing time for my birthday weekend and would love to come back again!!

Beautiful, spacious site. On a very picturesque lake. Took out boat and canoe. Went swimming on sandy bottom. Great for playing yard games and good space for our group of 6 adults. Took nice hike at Hickory Ridge Trail, 4 miles away.

Beautiful, private site above Bob Lake in gorgeous tall pines. Lovely setting for a gathering of friends. Hiking nearby at Hickory Ridge was a nice 3.5 mile hike. Canoeing, row boats and swimming made us hungry for pizza making and a game night. Even the rain didn't dampen our fun! Can't wait for another trip!

We LOVED this site and would absolutely come back. I truly hope to!! It's a great set up, directions were easy to follow to get there (also such a pretty drive in) and Brenda/Mike made sure that we knew they were readily available, should we need anything. I was a little ehhh about $100/night for a site since we do not use electricity and water hookups, but if you want to kayak/swim/paddleboard...the location is SO WORTH IT. Lake Bob is beautiful for sunrises and sunsets, to watch the eagle fly around the lake or the fish jump out of the lake, to paddle around or to try to catch the Northern Lights, like we were lucky enough to do so. We took advantage of Lake Wissota State Park nearby (beach, biking, hiking) and visiting Eau Claire, Cornell and Chippewa Falls. Enjoy your stay at this great camping spot!
