Enchanted Forest
I enjoyed my time at the enchanted forest on Sandra's land. 10/10 will recommend
Very easy location for a teardrop camper. Sandra greeted us and made sure we were all set.
Delightful hosts, quiet. Heavy rain made it muddy (not hosts fault whatsoever)

We had a fantastic time camping at this site. Located in a quiet, remote area with a nearby creek and plenty of room to explore. There was a ton of firewood available that was covered which was an added bonus since it rained heavily the night before. Easy to find with a great host! I would definitely return to Crooked Creek Ranch.

Great host and a great campsite. Beautiful views and it was tucked away and secluded. Very quiet and peaceful. We definitely recommend this place!
It was very nice peaceful spot. Very shaded area in the trees so it kept it nice. Plenty of room for our tent. Had firewood to use so that was nice.

Absolutely loved it here! Hosts are amazing! Super private! We will definitely be back! Fishing in the creek with the kiddos was a ton of fun caught a ton of fish. The horses are so sweet and their dog is awesome!

Great spot to get away to. The site was private, which was perfect for me and my dogs, and nice for adventuring to the creek. I also appreciated the firewood provided and welcoming host.
Very friendly host. Very very quiet place. I believe I had the place to myself which just proved how private it actually is. I was greeted by the host’s husband when I got there, and he brought me a lot of firewood for the night. Sandra stopped by and checked on me to make sure I had found my campsite and asked if I needed anything . Once again, I think I camped for free and got a really good deal on firewood. Lol you should definitely check this place out..

Great place to camp for the night. Plenty of firewood was provided and the area was safe and secluded. Would definitly recommend to others!
One of the best places in illinois.
Very secluded and beautiful
Had another awesome trip here. I was allowed to hike to the creek and camp. It was so beautiful and peaceful.
The dog and horses are very friendly and cool. The hoasts are very nice.
Sandra is a wonderful, welcoming person, property is beautiful,site is clean , quiet & safe. I love the fall colors on the trees & hiking trails. I would recommend.
Great, beautiful place will definitely be back. Lots of firewood around, quiet and friendly.

What a wonderful Hipcamp experience! I received a very warm greeting from Sandra (and Koda!) who guided me down to the campsite. The site itself is private, tucked back in the woods, with plenty of space to spread out. Sandra had prepared the campfire, and there was tons of downed wood scattered about for gathering. I was able to ride my bike to a nearby restaurant that she recommended (No Prep Tacos—SO good), and slept so well in the peaceful tranquility of her property. I only wish I had more time to explore the property’s trails and brook. I will absolutely stay again the next time my travels bring me through the area!
