Tent with a horse view

We really enjoyed our stay here. The screened porch provided a much needed break from the heat and bugs we'd experienced camping throughout the southeast. The screen porch provided a great place to enjoy our meal and the shower provided a great opportunity to clean up after the day's activities. I haven't used Hipcamp often but this was a great place to stay and I would definitely do so again.

Highly recommend

Good spot on a beautiful farm. Farm fresh eggs available. Our girls loved interacting with the horses which were eager to say hello.

Tent by the lake

Expectations Exceeded!

I cannot put into words how amazing our stay at Moon Lake Farms was! It’s like a little piece of heaven! Honestly, my favorite part was reading the Word at sunrise! The well maintained grounds are beautiful and accentuated with beautiful flowers, swings and a chiminea, Adirondack chairs, animals, and the amazing lake! We camped right on the water and also put in our kayaks at our site! We fished, swam, and did a little hiking! The animals were so fun to watch and pet !The bathhouse/screened in kitchen was just a short walk away, next to the lake, and over a quaint little bridge. The facilities were impeccable and felt like home! If you need anything from town, it is also just a very short drive away. John and Emily are so very kind and welcoming! Moon Lake Farm was above and beyond our expectations! Please do yourself a favor and take a little vacation from life at Moon Lake Farm! You’ll be so glad you did!

Perfect stay!

We absolutely loved our stay at Moon Lake! We were greeted by both hosts when we arrived, and were very attentive throughout. Our site was (RV 3) was level and dry despite recent rain. We were able to choose between a 30 amp or regular outlet for our power needs. There was a nice shady pavilion that was great for putting up our chairs and relaxing. The walk around the lake was lovely, as were all the animal friends! We saw not only the farm animals, but frogs, turtles, and all kinds of birds. The site is close to the neighboring house but still private. It was a very quiet stay. We would most definitely choose this site again!

Tent with a horse view

Great first stay with Hipcamp!

This was my first time camping with Hipcamp and it was fantastic! There was plenty of space available at our tent spot with a horse view and John was very accessible before our stay, replying to messages very fast. Both John and Emily were super kind hosts and came out to greet us upon arrival. My dogs loved running around with their dog and my cats (who were camping in their own tiny tent with us on our cross-country move!) felt comfortable enough here to walk around on their leashes at the campsite—a rarity! My family and I really appreciated the bathroom and kitchenette access and absolutely loved getting to pet the resident horses and donkeys. :) I would definitely recommend John’s land to others!

10/10

What a great experience we had at Moon Lake Farm! We did not stay in Rv1 with our tent, but John was an exceptional host and allowed us to swap to a spot at the back of the lake after we arrived and decided we needed something more secluded. Even though he was out of the country he was very responsive, and eager to make our stay as comfortable as possible. All of the animals were great, especially the cats, who came down to camp a few times. We made s’mores, caught some fish, and went swimming in the lake. It was the perfect weekend getaway.
