We own 10 acres with a pasture of wild flowers, chickens, and several varieties of trees. The surrounding 100 acres along Big Blue River is owned by our family and available for your enjoyment. Kayaking, hiking, bird watching, swimming and just relaxing! We hope we can be a quiet spot for your travels thru the midwest. We are 30 minutes from Indianapolis, 20 minutes to a gorgeous lake and mountain bike trail and Knightstown has several quaint shops and antique venues for you to enjoy! Please keep all animals on a leash or contained. We do live in the midst of cornfields and forest where racoons, opossums and our pets live. We have outdoor kitties Reginald is a big gray boy who will try to climb your leg if you stand still long enough! lol Abigail and Toby are our indoor dogs, but they do roam outside during the day. We also have 2 new to our farm rescued Great Pyreneese that are adjusting! They are in an enclosed pen behind our barn and should'nt cause you any trouble. You may hear them barking off and on as they adjust to their new surroundings. If you need anything please let us know :D We are always ready to make your stay as comfortable as we can!

Primitive TENT Camping!

Comfy camping in open field

Super friendly hosts! They offered a wonderful open field for us to camp and see the solar eclipse.

I loved camping on Tina’s land for the eclipse-directly in the path of totality. When I booked , the site mentioned there were only 2 places to camp on her site. Well, we got there and there were many more-bc of the eclipse. Tina and her husband made it so comfortable for all!!!! They put us (the biggest RV) in a perfect out of the way site. Tina and Ron rode around in their golf cart making sure all were comfortable. In the morning I took a walk-and liter did I know I was walking in a neighbors field-they came and fetched me with the cart and took me to their wooded area for preeclipse birdwatching. I love them!!!!

Great hosts.

Wide open space in rural area. Camped for Eclipse of April 8th, and was perfect. Many other campers including dogs, but didn't feel crowded. The hosts could not have been more accommodating! Great experience.

Primitive TENT Camping!

Perfect eclipse spot!

Tina and Ron's spot was just right for our eclipse weekend. This was my first time to book on Hipcamp, and they made it so easy with great communication before, meeting us at check-in, etc. Their primitive sites (on this particular weekend) were staked out very well, with clear markings between sites and plenty of room for our small group to spread out, but still close enough to neighbors to get to know other people if we chose. They were available anytime for questions but not at all intrusive. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend their spot anytime you'd like a spot to pitch a tent, light a fire, and get away in the Carthage/Knightstown area.
