The Old Rugged Barn Camp Out!

We are a small 3.5 Acre farmstead just outside Towanda in central Illinois.   We are ideally located minutes from town as well as the Interstate, historic Rt 66, and Bloomington-Normal.   We are not a campground and sites for hipcampers are what they consider dispersed.  That is, we don't have spaces numbered or measured.   

Hipcamp Host Jo is typically on the property to greet you at your arrival.  She will let you know if there are other campers or just your group.   After a brief intro about sites,  you can look around and determine a site you would like that best meets your needs.    It is typically first come/first served.  Let us know if you need to be near electric outlet.  Sometimes there may be only one site occupied.  

The property consists of our personal area, space for hipcamp, and the Old Rugged Barn which is an event venue where we host weddings and just about any kind of gathering imaginable.  Because it is a venue and to provide for everyone's safety, there are several dusk to dawn lights in operation.   When selecting your site, you'll select those with light or those with darkness.

My 4 doggies get very excited for new friends and will chirp away as long as they can see you!   They are fenced in their yard so not to worry.   We try to have sites that are out of their site or far enough away so you are as comfortable as they are.  Your pet is welcome as well!   There is plenty of space so that each group has privacy from others.  

We are minutes from town in case you need anything.  Swimming, fishing, boating, hiking, golfing are not on our property but can be found nearby.  

We have small firepit and wood but you'll need to bring your lighter.   Camp sites are plenty big and secluded from other campers.  We have the best sunsets!
