Just Off the Horse Trail...

Our kiddos loved staying with Miss Anette’s animals. All they have talked about has been the horses and pigs. Overall it was a silly thought on my part to think my husband and I would get any sleep when our kids were so excited to see the animals.

I can't say enough good about Anette and her farm. She was the absolute best. She showed the kids the animals, and brought out a pony for them to ride. The kids had an absolute ball on the farm. They had more fun here than in the previous three days of our trip combined.

We chose to stay in the areas behind the horse stables so we could be near the bathrooms and water. Consequently we weren't in the most private place available on the farm. But we had a very authentic farm stay and we'd do it again next time we passed through Indiana.

Thank you Anette!

Anette helped my kids fulfill their dream of riding horses. If your kids are into animals this is a great place to bring them, from dogs to pigs to horses to chickens...really lovely communal fire pit (free firewood and they have great garbage bins also!) and picnic table, where we met some awesome other campers also & shared food. Just pitch your tent pretty much wherever you want on the farm. Note the water is well water with a high iron content so portable and drinkable, but for city slickers the taste won’t be what you’re used to so you may opt to get some bottled or jug water at the gas station.

We (myself, my wife, my 11-month-old) had a wonderful time camping on the grounds of this charming, welcoming stables. Our hosts settled us and encouraged us to feel completely at home. There were beautiful horses and grunting pigs who amazed and awed our baby. Our campsite was near the entrance to a trail through fields and woods for horseback riding and walking. We were delighted to receive fresh eggs from their chickens! Anette, Bob and family made us feel so welcome, and also gave us space to enjoy the animals and nature. The landscape was amazing. We really enjoyed our time just off the horse’s trail!

We stayed in camp site #2, which had a fire pit, picnic table, and a garbage bin nearby—very convenient! We were also able to pull the car up near our spot to make loading and unloading easier.

It was fun to see the pigs, chickens, and ducks, which were near our camp. If you’re a light sleeper like me, I’d recommend bringing ear plugs since sometimes the animals made some noise throughout the night.

It was also convenient to have an indoor, clean bathroom, which is very luxurious compared to some other campsite amenities I’ve experienced.

It was a fun and unique camping experience. It was also about eight or ten miles away from South Bend, so it was just isolated enough but not completely out in the middle of nowhere.

Anette was awesome! Very welcoming and accommodating, loved sleeping in the horse field and looking at the stars at night! Would go back again if in the area

Great place, great price! Anette and her family were awesome hosts. The amenities were solid and the Anette's knowledge of the animals was very cool m!

Annette and her family were super friendly and helpful! They have beautiful horses, chickens and dogs on their pretty property. We had a great time :)

We had a great stay - Anette, Bob and the children were all very friendly and hospitable!
