Pasture Southeast
Absolutely wonderful!
It's hard to imagine a more welcoming Hipcamp host. That's an understatement. It honestly felt like saying goodbye to family by the time we left after our 3 nights at the lovely farm for the 2024 eclipse. We tent camped in the Pasture Southeast. The pasture was huge, so even though there were about 20 or so other campers in the pasture for the eclipse, there was tons of space. The goats, chickens, and pigs were a delight. We were incredibly lucky to meet the newborn goat, Natalie, on her first day of life during the last day of our stay! The serenade of happy birds, including an owl, added even more peacefulness to the atmosphere. A thunderstorm brought quite a bit of rain that took a while to drain, so checking in with the host and scouting a route is a good idea after rain before driving in the pasture. My girlfriend reported noticing the train that runs through the nearby town at night, so earplugs might be helpful to light sleepers and those not used to train sounds. I'm not sure when or if I'll find myself back in this beautiful part of Illinois, but camping again at, or at least stopping by the farm for a visit would be on my to do list 100%. Thank you, Cheri and family for an absolutely wonderful experience!!

Solar Eclipse Camping with my boys
We camped on Cheri’s land for the total solar eclipse. I brought my two boys And had a wonderful time. Cheri was friendly and helpful. I’m so thankful that she opened up her property for solar eclipse travelers. I would definitely stay there again.

Eclipse camping with animals!
What a lovely place and wonderful host! It could not have been a better place to take in the Eclipse! The camping field was soft grass and the animals entertained my kids. Cheri was very kind and helpful (and also made some wicked good biscuits and cookies!). I can't mention enough how nice Cheri was and what a wonderful experience we had on her farm.

Camping for the solar eclipse
It was beautiful on Cheri's farm. Not too loud. Her homemade cinnamon rolls were delicious and she did her best to ensure everyone's comfort and safety especially during the severe weather that came through whole we camped.

Northeast Rocky Spot
Cheri was a very accommodating host for our family. We camped for the 2024 eclipse, there was a lot of rain just prior to our arrival but she did her best to help everyone be as comfortable as possible.

Pasture SouthWest
Eclipse Camping
Tent sites were in a grassy pasture, most were elevated on a slight hill.
Cheri had provided a couple port-o-potties for the eclipse campers.
Came into town for the solar eclipse. Torrential downpour rains but the grass was thick and the ground didn’t puddle. We stayed dry in our tent.
Cheri is really nice and the property was beautiful.
We had plenty of room to ourselves.
Would recommend, would stay here again.
