Nomadic camping

Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.

TWO SPOTS TO CHOOSE FROM…… The camping spot we refer to as the NORTHSIDE SPOT is a flat yard atop a hill it makes for a great spot to park your RV, camper, tent or boat. This grass camping spot is always mowed and clean. Two large pine trees provide some shade for this northside camping spot. You can enjoy nearly panoramic views of the night sky! This spot is alongside a country road. It is considered less private than the SOUTH SIDE SPOT. The SOUTH SIDE CAMPING SPOT, is for tent campers only with a smaller vehicle. It is very private and completely surrounded by woods. This spot can accommodate two tents and one or two cars. There is no view of the night sky since you are in a dense forest. Patoka lake is less than 10 minutes away ( boating, fishing, hiking, swimming, biking). Holiday World ( an amusement park) is about 30 minutes away.A spacious flat yard atop a hill makes for a great spot to park your RV or camper. The grass camping lot is mowed and clean.

Start your trip off right with a heaping WHEELBARROW of firewood waiting for you at the communal fire pit. The fire pit area is flat concrete surrounded by many flowers, active hummingbirds and butterflies ( for the months that apply). And for most nights we can turn on the outside speakers so you can enjoy your favorite genre of music. The fire pit area is a sure fire way to de-stress.

We really enjoyed staying here. Despite the last minute notice we gave, their hospitality was absolutely heartwarming. It was quiet and friendly area. We recommend Natalie & Jeremy's Unplugged Acres. Will come back again. Thank you. 😊

Peaceful night sleep in the country

We enjoyed our night at Unplugged Acres. Everything was as described and the hosts were very good about communicating with us. Where we had us park was perfectly level and we slept great. Would definitely stay there again and have no reservations recommending it to anyone else.

Natalie’s land was the perfect overnight stop on my cross-country road trip! It was cozy, quiet, and peaceful, and Natalie and her partner were amazing hosts!

On the level

First, the hosts couldn’t have been nicer, got me set up and then gave me privacy. Level, well mowed shady area by two pines for shade. Site is just off of a country road that was lightly traveled and almost nobody during the night. Great spot for a quiet night off the road.

Heaven on Earth! 🏕️

16 ft car

Such a quiet and peaceful stay in the Indiana countryside! I loved this primitive camping experience so much that I ended up extending my stay! It felt like heaven on earth, waking up to a symphony of chirping birds and watching the fireflies light up the trees before bed. This place is 5 mins away from a gas station and dollar store, 10 mins away from the next big town over of Jasper. There’s two legacy pine trees which provided full coverage shade for my camper van. The property sits on a huge grassy hill with a short hiking trail and creek in the woods. My dog who is usually very reactive in the city was so ZEN out here and quickly became friends with the host’s dog Rudy. Natalie & Jeremy put so much love and hard work into this property and it surely shows. Every bit of this place has intention behind why it is there, and is wholeheartedly meant to be enjoyed! If you get a chance to chat with them, get to know their story and their passion for bringing people together! Tons to see and do in this area if you like nature, and Holiday World is less than 30 mins away! I loved exploring Lincoln State Park and Hemlock Cliffs. I hope to be back soon to visit this lovely place and the lovely folks who live here! :)

Unplugged Acres is what I hope every hip camp is like! The hosts were friendly and hospitable, and the location was perfect! I wish we had more time to explore the trails across the street, but the kids spent all day playing in the garden and down in the creek. It was perfect for viewing the eclipse and just all around wonderful! Thank you Natalie, Jeremy, and Billy!

Unfortunately I never made it. I was just released from hospital I totaled my jeep and fractured my c7. Currently in a hotel trying to rest. I hope I can stay at her spot sometime soon.

Tent

I had a very peaceful night under the pines at Natalie's. While the camping is close to the road, only two cars came by all night. The view down the hill through the trees was lovely as was the countryside I got to see on my drive out the next morning. Natalie was very responsive and I got a terrific night's sleep in her peaceful setup.

Exceptional hosts, starry skies

Tent · Group trip

I loved camping on Natalie’s property with my friends. The property is beautiful and secluded with a great view of the starry night sky. Natalie and her husband Jeremy were wonderful hosts and made us feel so welcomed. I’ll definitely be coming back again!

Welcoming, starry, and quaint camp!

Tent

We loved our stay at this campsite. We were only there for a few nights, but while we were Natalie and her husband were very welcoming and great hosts. Not being close to a big city, the view of the stars was so clear on this site which made for a beautiful night. There is no firepit in the camping area, but they were very kind in starting a fire in the large fire pit area near their house. Overall, I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking to camp out in either a tent or to pull up an RV for a very reasonable price and secluded area.

The Comfortable Camper

Tent

Natalie and Jeremy were phenomenal hosts. They’re property is absolutely beautiful! I knew when I saw the sunflowers at the entrance that I had made a great decision. The upcycled art and landscaping are picturesque. Their dog Rudy has become a life long friend! 10/10

Hoosier Hospitality Without Crowds!

Group trip

Natalie and Jeremy provided one of the most hospitable camping experiences in our 10+ years of camping. Communication was fantastic. And they genuinely cared about our comfort and quality of accommodations. Their property is beautiful. The fire pit area provides the perfect atmosphere to end the day. They are 35 minutes from Holiday World and 15 minutes to Hoosier Hills Patoka Lake Boat Launch Ramp. This is a perfect base camp for our family to do everything we enjoy in Southern Indiana. In the current era of packed campgrounds and having to book 6 months in advance to even get a campsite, Natalie and Jeremy will be our new go to camping destination when we visit Holiday World and Patoka Lake.
