Cozy ramshackle farmstead in the Hoosier Hills offer a chance to get up close and personal with the land, through camping, and hiking through the woods. Not only is Hoosier National Forest located both to the north and south for hiking and trail riding, but just 3 miles away is the Rise of Lost River at Orangeville, a natural landmark. Spring Mill State park is located about 20 minutes away in Mitchell, IN, while Patoka Lake is about 15 minutes south of nearby French Lick. For those interested in farmers' markets, Orange County Homegrown markets run Saturday at Orleans(10 miles away) from 8am-noon, and in French Lick 7 miles) from 4-8pm.

Tent site · Sleeps 10
Pitch your tent in the roadside meadow at the edge of the woods.  Water is readily available just over the driveway across from the garden.  The view of the field across the road is great for watching wildlife, and the wide open sky is perfect for stargazing.  Parking just beside the driveway makes for convenient loading and unloading.  Hike 13 acres of woods, or head to Hoosier National Forest at the end of the road for even more!

Located in southern Indiana's Hoosier Hills, Persimmon Honey Hollow is a cozy farmstead surrounded by Hoosier National Forest.  You can pitch your tent in a clearing at the top of the driveway across from the garden right next to the water spigot & picnic table, or  hike deeper into the woods for a more primitive style of camping!   Not only is Hoosier National Forest located both to the north and south for hiking and trail riding, but just 3 miles away is the Rise of Lost River at  Orangeville, a natural landmark.  Spring Mill State park is located about 20 minutes away in Mitchell, IN, while Patoka Lake is about 15 minutes south of nearby French Lick.   For those interested in farmers' markets, the town of Orleans has an active market Saturdays on the town square from 8am-noon, not to mention plenty of local Amish farmers with roadside and farmside stands nearby.

Nice stay! Peaceful woodsy area, great to view stars at night and unwind. Close enough to West Baden and French Lick and Patoka Lake for visits. Gracious host! Thanks again!

Persimmon Honey Roadside
Host very friendly and even gave us a gift of handmade soap! If you are camping with littles, be advised one of the two spots is within feet of the road. Not an issue for us, but something to be aware of if camping with small children. Close to spring mill park, and spring water available for use as well. Very reasonable price as well!

The host was I credibly kind and made us feel welcome even when my partner and I were just staying the night (arriving after 9pm and leaving early in the morning.) the rooster woke us up pretty early but ended up working out for the better. Highly recommend

Great location near French Lick, yet still remote with nature abound. Farm animals were SUPER cool! Host even supplied firewood. Just not ideal for tents as rhe entire area was sloped.

If you love farm animals, this is your spot! The hosts are very kind and helpful, the roosters are quite friendly, and Cornucopia the pig is a real treat. Plus some goats and cows and a nice wooded clearing to camp in. Recommend!

Quiet farm vibe
Persimmon Honey Hollow Gardenview
We booked last minute and pulled into the property. We were easily able to situate the rv on some blocks and relax! The spot is medium sized and has a pretty large grass area for our puppy to play on! Natasha is wonderful and so kind! She offers fresh eggs from her chickens and we happily bought some! They have a small farm with some of the nicest and cutest pigs (and baby pigs) and goats weve ever met! We were able to fill up on water and throw some trash out! For $7 this place is a steal! But i honestly think it should be more with what natasha offers! The night was quiet and we saw hundreds of light bugs flying around before we went to bed!

It was quick stopover on a trip to Chicago. I have a small equipped camper van , so a primitive campsite worked for me.

Great Country Camping
Persimmon Honey Roadside
More than I expected for roadside site. Had beautiful views of green pasture and the redbud and dogwood trees were in bloom making it a picturesque . All the farm animals provide me entertaining company. The host met me when I arrived and gave me useful information as well as a welcoming gift of their homemade soap. Most definitely would camp there again.
