Havendell Farm and Wayside

I had a great experience car camping on Dave’s property! It was peaceful and quiet, easy to find, and the portable toilet and water station were a great plus! The tent sites look cute and well laid out, I will definitely be returning to try them out!

Safe, Quiet and Friendly owners

30 ft Class C ·

We have stayed several times and this stay did not disappoint. It's clean, quiet, we feel very safe and the owners are great. Dave's location is easy to get to and close enough for easy on and off the highway. The view is great wide open fields and woods to enjoy. The horses, farm animals and flowers are very easy to enjoy. We will go back each time we are in the area. We give them a 10++ and would recommend to anyone that is in the area and looking for a nice place to stay, one night or several nights. Thank you again for a nice stay!!!

Good accommodations and amenities provided. I was in late and out early. All the spots are right next to each other and close to the main house so if privacy is a priority this may not be for you. Otherwise, spot is clean and well kept!

Beautiful farm with horses and great sky views at night. Dave is very nice and attentive if you need anything. The bathroom is an extremely clean Porto Pottie with handwashing station and sanitizer. Definitely would stay again!

We had a great stay at Havendell Farm. The host, Dave, was friendly and helpful. He was available if we needed anything, otherwise left us to enjoy his property undisturbed. The toilet, a well kept part a-potty, was clean and convenient, with hand wash station nearby.

Safe stop for dogs and humans ☺️

Great place to stop in for some good sleep. We’re traveling for 2 weeks so we have a lot of belongings we’re hauling around with us. Because of that, safety and feeling secure is very important to us and this place was perfect. WAY safer than a rest area but just as easy to stop and go. Dave was friendly and made us feel welcome- showed us where to park and made sure we were all good. *Quiet & Peaceful* *Our dogs enjoyed some good grass time* *Porta potty was the cleanest I’ve seen* *We’re traveling in a Dodge Truck with a topper*

Dave has such a beautiful property! The weeping willows and horses add to the calmness of the countryside. Dave greeted me as I arrived and made sure I had everything I needed. Bonus- there's a terrific bike trail just 2.5 miles from his place that is easy to ride to the trailhead. Wear safety gear and lights because you have to ride on the roads to get there, but they aren't very busy.

Missed opportunity

41 ft Class A ·

Ended up not going to the farm after realizing that the access was limited due to willows over the entrance lane. My class A is 13.4 ft high and although the site is listed for up to 45 ft units the height coming with the bigger rig wasn't taken into account.

We had a great stay at Havendell Farm! We got in just as the sun was setting and they had firewood ready to go for us. The sky was clear so we could see a lot of stars. Lovely sunrise over the trees and the kids had a wonderful time visiting with the horses! We got the Apple Crisp and Blueberry Cobbler and they were a great breakfast. Thank you!!

This is the second time I have stayed at Havendell when I have traveled to Indianapolis and would recommend this place to everyone. Each time has been great and quiet. I've been able to pull in late after a concert and get a good night's rest before hitting the road.

Wonderful HipCamp - Great Hosts 🤩

25 ft Class A ·

We were in town for a wedding and thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Dave and Tara’s peaceful property. We loved the wide open space with horses and pastures. Dave was very hospitable, flexible, and accommodating. We communicated throughout the weekend and Dave was quick to respond to every question. We stayed in the 30 amp site situated next to 2 tent sites which were occupied as well. Our “neighbors” were friendly and respectful. We especially appreciated access to the port-a- potty. It was super clean (emptied weekly), had toilet paper, and sat alongside a hand washing station. Tara provides a nice collection of handmade soaps, loofas, soap dishes, decorative pillows, and goodies for sale in the self-service “store” (i.e., adorable vintage camper). All in all, another great HipCamp experience. 🙌

Nice, quiet, safe place to s

We stayed at Dave's for the 3rd time this past week. We stayed 4 nights as we were in the area for Grandkids sporting events. Tara met us with a smile again and welcomed us back. Again we enjoyed our stay. The country setting is quiet and we always feel safe there. The fall colors were just starting to show in the tree line that is at the back of the property. There is something about seeing horses grazing out in the pasture that makes you smile. We will for sure be back to stay with Dave and Tara. Thank you again for providing us with a nice, quiet, safe place to stay.

We stayed for the second time at Dave's place. Tara, Dave's wife, met us with a smile and a great welcome. The farm is inviting and quiet and safe. Our camper door again faced the beautiful wide open field and the tree line was just getting a small sign of color that fall is coming. Havendale is a great place to stay and we will be back again. Thank you!
