We love sharing our space with those seeking true connection to nature and themselves. Privacy or community connection, whichever you prefer, we have 20 acres in Anamosa, Iowa at the end of a cul-de-sac just 5 blocks from Main Street. We think it's a slice of heaven and we bet you agree! NOTE: We don't have number/names of sites, just book and move through that portion as you are able. All the sites have ample privacy. Do you want to hike into a site? We have a few sites in the woods that are not easily accessible by car, if you want that kind of experience just mention it when booking. Follow us on Facebook to stay abreast of our current events! We are not very active on FB though, so we may miss your message if you reach out to us that way. FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN: Please reach out to us in messaging to determine if this is the right fit for your family vacation as we feel there are better options in the area for kids, but we do make exceptions for the well-behaved and respectful older children. Thank you for your understanding. ABOUT THE BARNYARD: n*Everland Barnyard is an eccentric art installation space created from found, recycled, and repurposed building materials in the heart of Grant Wood Country in Jones County, Iowa. We are not a commercial campground. We focus on Zen, mindfulness, peace, and tranquility. Firmly in the realm of Outsider Art, Gothic and rustic, Bob Kellogg has created a place unlike anywhere else in the world that represents freedom and inspires endless creativity. The land provides multiple camp sites for easy access to bike and walking trails taking visitors into town or through the Wapsipinicon State Park across the river from the property. Anamosa offers several restaurants, grocery stores and other businesses all within a 1-mile walking distance from your campsite. We also offer #ProjectCreatePeace, an initiative to create more peace in the world through creativity as an art project. Check out the extras listings to get your art on while you are here! There is a beautiful spring-fed water hole ideal for swimming in the state park, as well as access to the river from our property (although we do not recommend swimming in the river.) ## Highlights - **Best Hipcamps in Iowa:** Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2026. - **Best in Iowa: Finalist:** Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2024. - **Robert is a Star Host:** Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences. ## Amenities - **Amenities:** Pets, Potable water, Toilets, Campfires, Showers, Cooking equipment, Picnic table, Wifi - **Activities:** Biking, Boating, Fishing, Hiking, Paddling, Wildlife watching - **Terrain:** River, stream, or creek, Farm ## Sites - **n*Everland Barnyard Camping** (rv-tent, up to 6 guests, $55.00/night) ## Recent reviews > What a beautiful and peaceful place to camp. The proximity between the town and the state park is just perfect. Bob and Xene were very kind and welcoming. They have the sweetest little dog who got along great with our dog.

So much fun > > - Kai C., October 8, 2026 > Literally one of the best experiences of my life. Xene and Bob and the Twins are some of the nicest and most top notch people you can ever meet. Their property is amazing, as are they. This is true "camping" though - but they have a bathroom and a hot water shower, so it has that going for it. And Nettles, who can forget her - the amazing wonder dog.
