Nomadic camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
We are just getting Dotson acres started. Our motto is faith, family and farmstead. We just moved here this summer of 2025 from Tennessee so the property is a work in progress. I am a veteren of the Marine Corps and also a volunteer firefighter and we live and operate under christian values. Eventually to add to your camping experience, ive got plans for some off grid cabins and an earthship. In addition to camp spots, ai would like to make a little prayer area in the woods with some benches and a big cross. We hope to have a trail cut and cleared for a small hike soon. The plans for Dotson acres is to also sell chainsaw carvings and other things I weld, sculpt or create. Plant starts and garden produce, chicken eggs and any other creative ways we can find to help fund our dream of being together doing what we love instead of going to a normal job to make someone elses dreams come true. Not far away you can visit Mark Twain National Forest, Montauk State Park, Ozark National Scenic Riverways, and the Laura Ingalls Wilder Historic Home and Museum to name a few. Roughly 40 minutes off I44 at rolla and 20 minutes ftom hwy 60 just 2 hours to branson and springfield. Walmart and fast food are just 10 minutes away. We are new to the area but there are other lakes, trails and stuff to do close. Lots of flea markets and antiques stores close by to go explore. Located on a small private lane there are a few quiet neighbors. There is a parking area to access trail by walk in, though we are trying to make it vehicle accessable. Our first spot is able to fit a small van camper or a pickup with a small box camper though its pretty tight. 4x4 may be needed. We appreciate your reviews on hipcamp and google. Also give us a like on our Dotson Acres facebook pageRooster coop is the first campsite and closest to the road offering easy access for your camper van or pickup. Its a cozy little spot in the woods. Still a work in progress but enjoy an off grid camp in the woods with a good view through the trees to see deer and other critters.

It's close to different rivers spots. Dogs Bluff, Boiling Springs, Mineral Springs, Lane spring, Montalk State Park. I stayed for five days. The camp hosts are kind and willing to help with water.

We enjoyed our stay at the Rooster Coop at Dotson Acres! It was private and in the woods. The host, Levi, was friendly and we appreciated his hospitality. The fire ring was deep and we had a level spot for our tent. Thanks again!
