Clothing optional

Welcomes Hipcampers who prefer a clothing optional experience.

Are you looking for the opportunity to be free and connect with nature naturally? A place to reconnect with your soul or reconnect with your significant other(s). Do you need to escape life for even just a little bit? A place to safely be your true self or selves. Our spaces are all about privacy and relaxing in nature peacefully. Perfect for first time clothing optional experiences. Maybe you just prefer a quiet natural low key space to relax. Are you a regular camper who is tired of the busy big campgrounds? Need a overnight camping spot that is more nature and less people? Looking for a place to relax in the sun naturally and just take some time for yourself or time with the special people in your life? Along with offering overnight camping sites, we offer day passes for those who just want some chill time within the day. A day pass gives you access to the property, relaxing chairs for that perfect moment in the sun and the woods to wander as you connect with nature. Perfect for a lunch break or just a step away from life for a few hours. Sneak away and take some moments to recharge yourself naturally. Day passes can be a bit tricky to book, reach out if you need help with the site. We hope you will find that this is a place for everything listed above and so much more. A space to enjoy some downtime, quiet at peace with nature, and a place for restorative just-for-me time. Perfect for yoga in the woods or a natural spot to meditate. Not a commercial campground, just a piece of personal property that we are looking to share with others who enjoy time in nature. We enjoy our natural privacy and welcome you to experience the same. We are stewards of the property and are charged with taking care of all that Mother Nature has given us. If you need space to think, read a book, or just be you, this could be the right fit. Very private and peaceful, perfect for those looking for some alone time or time with family/friends. Forget the news, forget work, forget city life, and just take in the moments; while listening to the birds sing, (Pull out your Merlin app) to see who's singing! Your hosts are here if you need us, but we leave you to enjoy this beautiful place at your own pace. We give you privacy to enjoy your stay fully. We have 15 acres of woods with a natural rock bluff, so many different spaces which allow you to fully bond with nature. Trails to wander and wildlife to see. Clothing is optional through out all of the property; overnight camping and sunbathing/day pass spots are available. Located on the Wapsipinicon River. Camp sites are very private and tucked away from life's stresses. Relax in the woods. Watch the cows and calves moo in the nearby pasture. Walk nature trails with native wildlife and flora. Great photo opportunities abound. Cast a line to catch dinner. Escape to nature is the key to this property; find yourself tucked away from city sounds and light pollution. Come out to see the sunset/sunrise, check out the stars, read a good book, lay out in your favorite hammock, find yourself, and be at peace. Great place for a nice camping fire; treat yourself to some smores. Peaceful sounds at night of the river flowing as you drift off to sleep in your tent. Perfect little spot for peaceful relaxation and just taking some time. Walk the trails in your natural skin, shoot photos of all the different plants, listen to the birds and animals scurry, enjoy the sunshine, and feel the warmth on all of your body. Put in your canoe or kayak at Olin for a 3-4 hour float to our camping area. There are lots of state parks within a short drive; visit the only Presidential library in Iowa; and tour some amazing caves in nearby parks. Enjoy the Great Jones County Fair only 30 mins away.. So much to do, and then come back to a space without crowds and just chill. Welcoming to all, we love to meet new people and let them share in the joy of bonding with nature freely. **Property Owner is certified in Massage, offering sessions at the property.

Waterfront camping site 1

We will be back!

Scott and Kim were very welcoming and made us feel comfortable from the initial registration, answering questions, and through our stay. Scott even transported all off our camp gear (and us) on the ATV from our car down the 1/4 mile trail to the campsite. My wife and I were looking for a campsite while canoeing and discovered JT Ridge. The added benefit of a shuttle service from our canoe drop off was perfect for an afternoon paddle and a place to camp plus some time in the sun. We liked that the site was about 8' above water level which provided a bit of a barrier from the occasional water traffic. The total camp area was somewhat smaller than expected but we felt there was adequate space between sites especially with the trees. Scott even came down and put up two new hammocks for us. The camp area is a hard sand base, well maintained, with ample firewood. The picnic tables, fire ring, and grilling grates were good to have. The bugs were't too bad but bring repellent and your own water. The bathroom was rustic but extremely clean. The hosts have put a lot of thought into the details of your stay and the camping experience. I'm sure it will only get better. Appreciated their adhering to the Leave No Trace principals and providing a great place for new or seasoned naturists to enjoy. Please respect and enjoy this rare treasure of a place in the middle of Iowa. J

Peaceful Place

Very peaceful atmosphere. Scott was a gracious host (I never got to meet Kimberly). He showed me around the property. There was recent flooding that limited where I can hike, and recent erosion along the river bank closed off the frontage from my tent site, so a dip into the river was not advised. The only suggestion I have is the place can use a public shower facility; otherwise, I would return if I’m in the area.

Great riverside camping!

This is a well thought out camp. It stretches along a river on one side and a pasture on the other, both beautiful. The host was very nice and helped me get situated at the site by driving me to the site on an ATV, with all my gear towed behind in a wagon. I highly recommend the massage as well. I was travelling by motorcycle and had been riding everyday for over a week. I was knotted and sore from being on the bike. Scott worked all of the muscles but paid extra attention to the spots that get sore from riding. I had never been to a clothing optional campsite before but did make use of the perk. The campsite offers plenty of privacy to allow you to get comfortable with it. If ever I pass through Iowa again, I will definitely be stopping here! Darn, I forgot to mention the sound of the river as you sleep, so relaxing!

A wonderful experience! The location is in a beautiful section of rolling hills and timber along the Wapsipinicon River in Jones County. The river has a voice of its own that provides a tranquil vibe. Along the river banks it is a more filtered shade/sun setting. Above in the ‘commons area is full sun. Scott is welcoming and puts you at ease(it was my first time). I met another young couple(their first experience as well) and they felt this was a great place to be as well. I do plan to be back.

Day Pass Visit

Such a nice experience on Scott and Kimberly’s land! My husband and I enjoyed our first time at clothing optional as it was private and relaxing. Scott was a friendly host & we could tell they put a lot of work into maintaining the property. Outdoor toilets were clean and sanitary. Trails were fun to walk & camp site by river was relaxing, offering a lot of shade. The lounge chairs on top of the hill is the perfect area to soak in the sun and get a full tan. Absolutely will return in the future!

We had a fabulous and peaceful night into morning hours, a short stay, but well enjoyed. Scott and his wife have made sure to make their land easily and freely enjoyed by their guests, very thoughtful. Due to arriving late, he even made our fire for us since it was dark. Despite the waters being higher than usual and no available beach, we enjoyed the sounds of the river, frogs, and birds. Clothing optional was a fun experience. Freeing for sure.
