I got a chance to camp on Susan and Larry's land May 11~16 and can't wait to go back. You truly get to camp right next to the river (as you can see in the attached video), with great views of the water, birds that fish it, and barges that travel it. The land is peaceful, and beautiful ...you can see in another video I uploaded how beautifully misty it gets the morning after a good rain.
The farm is home to many wonderful animals, and it was heartwarming to see how much the hosts care for them. I got to spend most of my time sitting quietly at camp, but every day I also took the time to visit the animals. Susan and Larry were gracious, down to earth, and helpful in every way. They have three farm dogs and took the time to formally introduce us. I've been at a Hipcamp before where I didn't get this kind of warm introduction and had to set up camp nervously while a strange dog barked and growled a little too close to me. I got to know and grow used to these dogs very quickly, including a very sweet old soul who spent a lot of time next to me whenever I went up to sit and watch the animals.
Things to know before you go: I have T-Mobile and didn't get much coverage in the area. It's quite spotty until about half an hour towards Brandenburg, best stop for gas and ice. Did not go out much except one trip to Forest Edge Winery (recommended). Wish I'd visited the Bernheim trails, forest giants, and the forest/arboretum. Next visit!
Reserve a spot at Moonlight Grove ...you won't regret it!
