Home Sweet Home, tucked in the heart of agriculture and lake life, Angola is a wonderful small town in the north east corner of Indiana. Songdog Meadows is our little piece of joy, from morning swims in the pond, long walks with our retrievers and sunsets to take your breath away, it is truly and deeply a treasure we cherish. The property host a variety of apple trees, open grass land, and a large cluster of trees surrounding a 3/4 acre pond, while being surrounded by wood lots on three sides and open fields to the west. It is truly a peaceful haven in a rural country area. Learn more about this land: Hang your hammock or pitch a tent just outside our 3/4 acre pond. There are two basins with a channel and a peaceful tree filled grass area between. The pond is in the corner of the 10 acre lot where we live at the end of a dirt road with only a small amount of traffic. The camp site is walk in on mowed pathways, with the driveway and parking area less than 200 yards away. There is a security light so you will never be in complete darkness. A stone fire pit and picnic table sit just off shore of the swimming area of the pond. There are several wide mowed pathways surrounded by prairie grasses, shaded by large trees. The area can easily handle several tents, hammocks and small RVs. The area is rural farm land with a handful of houses on the short dirt road. But this property is surrounded by wood lots and open fields. Two neighbors houses are visible but separated by trees. Our house is visible from the pond and camping area.Hang your hammock or pitch a tent just outside our 3/4 acre pond.

A sanctuary

This is a beautiful place to stay. My two boys and I camped in our mini van for three nights. We were able to pull up just a few feet away from the pond so when we woke up we had an incredible view of the pond and in the early hours the fog over the pond was beautiful. We brought an inflatable kayak and small boat. My boys enjoyed paddling and swimming around catching frogs the whole time. We saw turtles too and there was a large bird, I’m unsure of the species, that hung out with us most of the time. If you love plants like me there’s plenty to enjoy! Beautiful tall grass and flowers. This camp is truly a sanctuary. You can see their house through some trees, but it still felt very private. I’m typically someone who wants to be in the national forest somewhere and see no one and here I still felt like I could decompress from the world. I don’t think I even put my shoes on for three days, it was wonderful. There is a Luggable Loo provided, but we had our own set up so we didn’t need it. It was also fully stocked with fire wood. Then while packing up we realized my van wouldn’t start! Beth was just leaving, so I had to flag her down! I’m sure it was a sight to see! She was so kind and gracious while helping us. The bonus was we then got to me her adorable dogs that where with her! I would definitely highly recommend this camp! The only thing I’d change is, I would not put my teen son in charge of putting the battery charger back in the van!

Private and serene

Two sites to choose from, one with a picnic table next to a pond, the other further away at the top of a hill. Both have fire rings. No other amenities. I chose the hilltop and spent a pleasant evening there surrounded by trees with shade in the corner. A nice mowed path led around the pond.

Very secluded and quiet, tons of fire wood always proved and covered! It was so calm and peaceful you’ll never want to leave.

Songdog Meadows

Songdog Meadows was a special little piece of heaven that we will, without a doubt, return to! The sound of frogs lulled us to sleep each night and the magic of a foggy sunrise over the water was the best start to each morning. Highly recommended floating in the pond and taking in the ethereal landscape as much as you can while you’re there. Beth was an incredible host and provided everything we needed to have an awesome stay.

Beautiful but Buggy

This farm is very pretty, with apple trees and a cute little pond. It's also nice and private. Unfortunately it had more mosquitoes than I've ever seen, and the ground was covered in thorns that made walking barefoot impossible. Wear shoes and go hard on the bug spray

Very clear directions, which made it easy to find and get set up as the sun was setting. Very nice to have firewood provided and the little pond site feels like your own little oasis. The frogs at night and the birds in the morning were so nice to listen to!
