Find a place in a meadow to star gaze and watch the moon, or hike into the woods for a secluded camping experience. Beautiful rolling hills, wildlife, wild flowers, peace and quiet are just a few of the perks in this rare location next to the Bluffwoods Conservation Area. Be prepared to get your hands dirty with this listing. All campers have the opportunity to volunteer one hour per day while staying at Beacon Farm. We are a nonprofit Christian ministry planting God's love one seed at a time. Donating organic produce to those in need here in Saint Joseph. Your hour of volunteer time each day could consist of harvesting veggies, weeding, stacking wood, milking goats, or any number of other things, depending on the time of year you are here.

Fireflies galore
We showed up late and left early. It was peaceful and I’ve never seen so many fireflies!

Just what I needed
Perfect spot. The hosts were very friendly and kind, and worked hard to make sure I had a good experience. I would definitely return here next time I need to get away for a weekend. As mentioned on their listings, campsites 1 and 2 are fairly close to each other. The other sites are more secluded. However, I still feel I had plenty of personal space, even though there was a large group at site 2. Google Maps took me past the farm’s entrance. Make sure to read the host’s posted directions, which will likely tell you to pull into the main entrance (look for the big sign by the road) and park near the house to check in prior to moving your vehicle down to your campsite.

Great place, good people
Very nice, large, relaxing property. Lots of farm animals and some hiking trails. Owners are very nice and welcoming. A great spot to relax and stargaze. We will definitely be back!
