Scott was absolutely wonderful. The site was beautiful and big enough for my group of ten to be able to spread out.

Nice remote camp. Heavy rain the first night and generally cold. So it was nice to be able to hang out in the barn.

My wife and I and our four dogs loved Scott’s land and all he’s created on it. We could have pitched a tent but chose to stay in the pop-up trailer right by the stream. the dogs explored the stream, the barn, and surrounding area, and they loved the swimming hole a couple minutes upstream. The set up is amazing, with running water, a propane grill, a flush toilet and even a hot water shower. The only problem we encountered was very many wasps at breakfast time; I’d advise bringing a screened tent, or eat meals around a campfire to keep them away. Scott was a great host who showed us around, explained helpful details about the solar lights and water, and gave us many options about where we could sleep. Great weekend.

Thank you!!

Set in the heart of nature, this retreat provided the perfect setting for a long-overdue catch-up with friends. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this was no ordinary getaway. The serenity of the surroundings, with the soothing sound of running water, felt like a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
Our host, Scott, warmly welcomed us and patiently waited as we took a wrong turn. He guided us safely across the creek and gave us a tour of the property, which we greatly appreciated.
Despite the rainy weekend, it only added to the charm; we weren't bothered by it at all. The sound of rain with the crackling fire, created a truly magical atmosphere. Despite being in a remote location inside a barn, we felt like we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
The highlight was simply being away from the distractions of everyday life – whether sharing stories by the fire, engaging in deep conversations, climbing the tree fort, or hiking through the rain-soaked landscape, everything felt magical.
As we were packing our bags, a strong urge to return soon washed over us. This place has a magical energy that deeply resonated with us, and we will definitely come back.

Scott was so fantastic! Super responsive and helpful with directions.
The site was incredible. Definitely want to come back with more people in the future!
The mini-farms were so lush and there could be nothing better than biting into an apple by the fire late at night. Amazing to trek along with the river!

We loved camping on Scotts homestead. It was beautiful and incredibly peaceful. Scott was so helpful throughout the whole planning and camping experience. We were traveling with 3 small children and it was easy and really fun. The creek that flows through the property is so serene and the Indian grinding rocks were incredible. There was volley ball, Cornhole, darts, swings, and gold panning gear.
The camp kitchen was fully stocked and had everything you could possibly need and more.
The rope swing in the barn was the kids favorite part. We swam in the swimming hole, crawfish nibbled gently on the kids toes in the creek, and the stars at night were spectacular.
We camped in the barn, and due to our toddlers and old dogs we weren't able to utilize the loft beds. The stairs up to the beds are very steep and small, but that didn't matter we just used a couple air mattresses that Scott kindly let us borrow and camped on the first floor.
The drive in was pretty wild you cross quite a few creek beds but Scott met us in town and led us in just fine. He showed us around and then left and we had the place to ourselves. It's a huge property and could fit large groups easily.
We would definitely go back. This place is really worth it.

Very cool and rustic place.
Scott was very welcoming and showed us around his 40 acre ranch.
100% privacy and located right next to a babbling stream.
We will be back...
I would recommend this place to large families. Lots of room in the barn to spread out.

Upon our arrival, my husband and I were greeted by our host, Scott. He kindly gave us a tour of the property, and highlighted all the accessible amenities/facilities. Scott was a great host; welcoming, kind, and easy-going, my husband and I felt very well taken care of during our stay.
During our stay at Murray Creek Homestead, we reposed in the quiet seclusion offered under the canopy of a large oak. The spot was situated close to a beautiful barn, picnic- table, outhouse, outdoor dining area/kitchen, and much, much more. Murray Creek Homestead
simply has too many amenities and features to list in a short review: A basketball goal, badminton set-up, lovely gardens, corn-hole boards, multiple seating areas and structures, a clean shower facility-- these are but a few.
There is something here for everyone in the family to enjoy. Murray Creek Homestead would be an excellent venue to host a family get-together. And, because this property is so gorgeous, with multiple lodging options, it could be an inspiring place for an intimate, rustic wedding. Should your aim be to take a siesta from the outside world, look no further. Murray Creek Homestead is a perfect spot to unwind, relax, recreate, and explore.
Thank you, Scott, for sharing this special space, and for your genuine hospitality. My husband and I loved our stay here, and would recommend your Hipcamp to anyone who appreciates natural beauty, solitude, and comfort.

Murray Creek Homestead
We had suuuuch a nice time at Scott's Homestead. This is a great place for kids and adults alike. There is plenty of water in the creek in early July to cool off and play. Scott was great to communicate with and we admired all the hard work and ingenuity he's put into the land. We were glad our car had some clearance under it--driving to the camp itself is a creek-crossing, dirt roading adventure, not for the low-riders! We would recommend this spot and definitely head back again.

Great spot, kid friendly Scott is fun and great host. 4 stream crossings- no potable water- not a problem for real campers.

Nice remote site. We were able to sleep in the barn and in vehicles. Nice fire pit by the creek. Solar powered lights in the barn and around camp allowed as to organize our gear. All of our group said that they would stay here again.
