This is my favorite spot. We started our 2025 camping season here and ended it here. Will be back again and again.

Great spot, especially for dogs

Gazebo Pond
Beautiful quiet spot, with a pond, deck, and gazebo all to yourself. We loved the fenced in space that allowed our dogs more freedom than they’re used to having when camping. Definitely recommend taking advantage of the “extras” offered by the hosts. Fresh warm bread, eggs, and honey all were enjoyed on the spot. 30 A electric and quality water hook up were a big plus. Great camp experience close to all that Galena and Joe Davies County has to offer.

Gazebo Pond
We had an amazing time tent camping for 3 nights to celebrate our son's birthday. He said it was the best camping trip ever! We had a blast swimming, fishing, and hiking around the property. I'd highly recommend camping with Jeri.

Gazebo Pond
This gem is perfect if you want to unplug and forget about everything! The pond brings nature to you and my husband and I spent lots of time trying to identify all the bird calls while sitting in your personal gazebo and we were even visited by deer while we enjoyed our camp fire! Jeri and Colin were very responsive and welcoming hosts and close by should we need anything.
Totally private and fenced, this property is perfect for your furry friends to explore off leash while providing you peace of mine. Our initial plan was to use this as a home base while we explored Galena near by but in the end it was too peaceful to leave. We wished we could have stayed another night and walked the trails on the property. That will need to be on our todo list the next time we book this oasis.

This place was awesome. I can’t say enough good about this place. The owners were very friendly and communicative. Our battery died and they lent us jumper cables. It’s clean and quiet and peaceful. The gazebo was great for sitting and talking in the shade. No cell service so it was a great opportunity to unplug. There plenty of fish to be caught in the lake. There’s a paddle boat that can be used,a row boat,and a lily pad to float on in the lake. Plenty of trails to walk. The entire area was fenced to bring pets. This was great family time. This was just a great experience and we got engaged!! Highly recommended.

Our recent stay at Jeri's Honey Bee & Bee Homestead was an absolute dream. This peaceful, well-maintained spot is a little slice of heaven tucked away in the Driftless Area. The fenced-in site next to the pond—complete with a charming gazebo and sitting area—offered the perfect mix of comfort and natural beauty. My husband, our dog, and I spent the weekend swimming, relaxing, and watching the local wildlife (we even spotted turtles sunbathing!).
The trail system is incredible—extensive, scenic, and we barely scratched the surface during our stay. Don’t miss the chance to dip in the pond, and be sure to add on the farm-fresh eggs, honey, and homemade sourdough bread. Trust me, they’re a must.
Our only regret was the wind that kept us from using the fire pits—but that just gives us one more reason to return. We’ll definitely be back!

Perfectly Designed and Private Spot

Gazebo Pond
We chose this spot for the maiden voyage with our brand new Winnebago. The spot is beautiful and super private. The hosts were more than accommodating, even giving us some peripherals we had forgotten. It’s perfect if you have dogs because the entire campsite is fenced in. Walking trails are cleanly cut and a trip into Elizabeth for a burger and a beer (try Hwy 20 Brewery cut into an old church) is super easy. The pond is lovely and frequented by migratory birds. We also fished and caught the first good sized large mouth of the year. We only wish we could have stayed longer and will be back for sure.
