2024 total eclipse
In the path of the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse.
Primitive camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
72+/- acre HUNTER'S/FISHER's PARADISE- lodge and acreage on Caddo Creek, East of Athens. This property is the perfect combination of pasture and woods, loaded with beautiful mature trees, and has a large pond away from the highway for quiet and solitude. Activities: Pick pecans, watch the wildlife, pet the sheep, go fishing...plenty of space for all your camping activities. We have 1 electrical hook up or spend the night under the stars near the pond in a tent. This is a disabled/veteran owned working sheep farm. Perfect place to see the ring of fire in April (eclipse)!!

5 Out Of 5 Bleats!
This is the best campsite I have been to, without a doubt. I have camped at Caddo Spring Farms 7 times and already have my next visit booked. It is not only the spectacular site but also the host. Since this is a working farm there is always some action to watch and animals to listen to. There is even one rooster that is very proud of his flock and often spends much of the day bragging about it. The host is often see darting back and forth while doing farm chores. You can really see the care taken and respect he shows has for his land. The campsite is giant and plenty of room and options for multiple tents - perfect for a family or group outing. Make sure you bring a firepit because there are no ground fires allowed. The campsite faces east (at least I face it that way) which overlooks the pond and adjacent meadow with a giant Oak tree in the middle. The sunrises are amazing; you can see the dew turn to low fog, occasional rabbits running across the meadow and even some bird of prey action. The pond, the site's centerpiece, has bass, panfish and catfish. I have personally caught 2 bass and plenty of crappie. I have spent many a relaxing moment by this pond and look forward to many more. The location of this site is ideal for D\FW residents. It is far enough away to feel 'out of town' but close enough that it doesn't feel like a full road trip. This is also a great campsite for start gazing since it does get very, very dark out there.

Nice Farm
Nice, quiet farm with plenty of animals to see and places to explore. The host was very friendly and even took time to show us around and let us meet all the animals. The description is accurate in that there are no facilities. The host said he has a fire pit you can borrow, if needed.

Stellar Site!
I was at Caddo Springs Farm for the Oct annular eclipse and it was one of the best weekends I have ever had. This site is one of the most peaceful and beautiful I have ever camped at. The pond, once again, provided me with some great catches including my PB Bass! As always, the host is very nice and more than happy to help where he can. I have already visited multiple times and I will continue to visit in the future.

Sheep Farm for the Win!
This spot has everything you are looking for. You get to camp next to a beautiful pond and the fish are plentiful. I caught 2 bass and a whole smattering of panfish. Todd, the host, is so friendly and happy to help. Make sure you ask to see the sheep, they do not disappoint. The onsite rooster will be sure to let you know when it is time to wake up. This spot has plenty of space for multiple tents and great views.

Beautiful property& wonderful host!
We loved tent camping on Christopher’s land! The property was beautiful and the instructions were clear. Christopher was super easy to get a hold of and was soo helpful! He even came out and brought us some fresh eggs!! We’ll definitely be returning here! We saw tons of fish in the pond too but didn’t fish. Christopher also allowed us to build a fire and allowed us to come in later at night since we went to a fest in the day.
