Escape the crowds and enjoy private camping on our 20-acre farm just minutes from Smithville Lake. With only a few well-spaced sites, you’ll have room to relax, unwind, and experience a quieter kind of stay. We offer two distinct campsite experiences: Sycamore Grove — A shaded, secluded site surrounded by trees, ideal for quiet stays and privacy. Overlook Site — A spacious, open setting perfect for RV campers or those who prefer wide views and flexible space. Spend your day at Smithville Lake, then return to a peaceful campsite where you won’t hear crowded neighbors - just open space and natural surroundings. This is not a traditional campground. Sites are intentionally spaced for privacy and simplicity. The Overlook site is a dry site (no water or sewer), best suited for self-contained setups. With limited sites available, weekends and peak seasons tend to book quickly—reserve early to secure your stay.

Sycamore Grove | Private Shade
This was a great site! It's secluded on the middle of 20 acres, well maintained, and stocked with firewood. The toilet and sink were a really nice touch.

The area was spacious and private, exactly what I was looking for. If I had to nitpick, a sign at the entrance would be beneficial (very easy to miss turnoff), as well as a sign at the actual site. But the camping area matched the pictures, so that was easy enough. Highly recommend!
