Private sites

100% of recent Hipcampers say the sites felt private.

Four acres situated just minutes from the Wilbur Wright Birthplace and Museum, Westwood Park, and Summit Lake. Our property is an experiment in rewilding native plants and trees as well as the beginnings of permaculture gardening. You may also enjoy the zen paths that flow through the trees and fields. Don't mind the chickens, they're just curious. We also have two large, vaccinated dogs that roam the property, as well as barn cats. The only problem with the dogs is they're too friendly and may wanna love on you, so if dogs aren't you're thing please let us know and we'll gladly leash them while you're here with us.

Tent site · Sleeps 5

Our tent camping is dispersed and you can set up camp anywhere that isn't in the playground area (north side of house). There is also a concrete pad you may use if it's raining or want that sort of thing. The well water spigot is located in front of the house (west side). The property offers many secluded spaces if you're the more adventurous type with setting up your tent.

A beautiful quiet little farm. You're basically parking in their circular driveway, but over near the tree by the barn feels like your own special place. A great Zen garden path throughout the property too
