This site is peaceful and beautiful. The color of the water is almost unreal. My dog and I had a blast.

What we mean by a "Get-Away" trip!
17 ft travel trailer
Finding a quiet, pristine, off-grid campsite with sweeping views and accommodating hosts causes me to pause before telling anyone else about it. I fear it would be ruined if too many people found it. But Bryan and Nicole have figured out how to share their beautiful property while preserving the unspoiled land, limiting campers and protecting the environment.
Needing a break from urban life, my husband Jim and I didn't see another person for four days while we were there. Didn't hear even a plane. No lawn mower. No leaf blower. No cars, no scooters, no motor sounds of any kind. Pure silence with wind and a few crickets.
And, we couldn't get enough of the views from every direction. Serene, rolling hills. Farms with fence rows and big round hay bales. Rainbows over the pond and the waning crescent moon. One evening we watched a big cloud of lightning to the south for over an hour, and the stars at night brought down the late summer constellations.
We want to go back when the weather is cooler. It was extremely hot when we were there. But honestly, anytime at Hills Springs is time well spent.
Practical Info:
• Easy-access off-grid camping.
• Hosts, Bryan and Nicole are responsive via text if needed, but leave campers to themselves.
• Relax out of the sun or rain in the large, open shelter. • Beautiful, sweeping 360-degree vista.
• Pristine pond for a dip and to fish.
As Nicole puts it, the site is: "Lightning and a bonfire and 120 acres of no one."

Would definitely stay here again! It’s clear the hosts care about their land and this spot. I was only here for a quick night during a roadtrip but would love to come back for a long weekend. Easy to find. Cell service was great. The sunset behind the pond was gorgeous. And there’s a ton of room to walk around the property for some exercise/something to do.
Note: A neighboring house was playing loud music/karaoke for several hours during my stay, but they stopped right at 10pm. And thankfully they had good taste in music 😏 Just something to note if you’re looking for guaranteed quiet.

This is my second time at the property, and it was just as special as the last. I love the pond filled with catfish and the stunning sunsets. It's close enough to French Lick for a meal and ice cream. I'll definitely be coming back!

Excellent, Secluded, Huge Site!
Tent · With kids
This was a lovely camping spot! The views are gorgeous. The signage and directions to the site are easy to follow. Hosts were communicative and friendly. We love a secluded campsite and this felt like we were surrounded by nothing but trees and rolling farmland. The site was large with plenty of room for our tent and vehicles. We loved watching the sunset here! 10/10 recommend and would love to visit again!

I hesitate to give a great review only because I want to gatekeep this spot so it’s always available when we want it! If gorgeous sky and landscape views, privacy, and a cool dip in the pond is what you’re after, you cannot go wrong with this Hipcamp. We enjoyed going into Huntingburg and Jasper for the day, and then the next day, we enjoyed never leaving. We’d live here if we could. Already planning our next weekend getaway.

Camping Bliss
Tent
This was our second trip to Hill Spring Campground, and once again, the pond site was absolutely perfect. The views are breathtaking, and the pond is such a peaceful spot to relax and fish. We even had the treat of watching a rainstorm roll through, followed by a stunning double rainbow—it was pure magic. This truly is one of our favorite places to camp, and we can’t wait to return again!

The site was beautiful. Every direction was picturesque. We just so happened to go camping here on a weekend with a heat advisory and the pavilion was a nice source of shade. There were a lot more houseflies than I thought there would be; especially around the pavilion, but the site is in the middle of a farm so it’s not entirely unexpected. I’d definitely come back to camp here in the fall/winter.

Best Hipcamp experience EVER!!!
Tent
Bryan and Nicole were the ABSOLUTE BEST HOST EVER!! Great communication, hospitality and was generous enough to lend me a couple staple items, we forgot to bring. Beautiful view, scenery, very peaceful and such a joy to enjoy the site by ourselves. 10 out of 10 and will definitely return back.
Thanks again Bryan and Nicole! Truly appreciate the five star stay.

Perfect Secluded Pond Oasis!!
Tent
This place is truly an oasis!!!! It felt so beautiful and secluded, like a peaceful escape from everything. The pond is stunning, and the surrounding views are absolutely breathtaking. We only stayed one night, which wasn’t nearly enough—but we’ll definitely be coming back!!
Bryan and Nicole are so kind to share this special place with others. They were incredibly helpful and informative in their communication leading up to our stay. Once we arrived, they gave us our space, but were always kind and responsive whenever we needed anything.

Peaceful and gorgeous landscape. Perfect for birding and the ideal place to see thousands of lightning bugs at night if you're in the area in mid May or June.

Perfect Hipcamp

I stayed at the pond site. Awesome. Expansive views, but no people in sight - just deer and turkeys. 5G cell coverage (Spectrum). Outhouse is incredibly clean. What a great place Bryan and Nicole have here, I will be back.
