Romantic

Recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp is romantic.

This land has been asking to be shared. First it was swings and little things for the grandchildren and their friends. Then the Cabin by the pond began to welcome visitors. Soon the steep slope anchored a Yurt with a wrap-around deck that puts you up in the trees. Our gathering spot by the creek became a camp site. Recently the grandkids' Bunk House found its way in. Our Retreat is 10 acres, narrow, but 1/4 mile deep, stretching down a steep wooded slope to a creek - and up the other side to the top of a bluff. It is only ten miles to Jefferson City but has a quiet and distant feel.

Comfy Cabin by the Pond.

Cabin by the pond!

I loved every moment of it. The host was so helpful from starting grill fire to handing out an antacid for spicy food we ate 😂 We thoroughly enjoyed his company. The place was very very comfy, neat and well maintained. Had the wonderful chance to meet Miss Cleopatra(cat).

Mystical Yurt Floating in the Trees

Forest treasure

This place is absolutely magical, especially after a long day in the car. Our spirits were renewed. Bill was very kind and we cannot think of anything that could have made our stay better. We absolutely love it at the yurt.

Mystical Yurt Floating in the Trees

The yurt is felt magical inside. There are many thoughtful details to the care and experience of guests. Simple, comfortable, clean, and well supplied. My child (4yo) and I walked the path to the creek at least twice a day. As a single parent with a young child, this property felt safe and undisturbed. One of our days it rained heavily in the evening, we stayed warm and happy in the yurt playing games. I have a crew cab 1500 and the last patch of road to the yurt was a bit tight. The pine trees touched the cab on both sides and I had some difficulty turning around because the trees are right along the edges of the road. A smaller truck or vehicle would do find.

The Bunk House

Great cozy space in the woods

Because I have a camper van, I didn't actually sleep in the Bunkhouse. But I did take a look, and it is very cute and cozy. The AC was going when I got there, so it would have been quite comfortable. Nice touches and a welcome note made me almost sad I wouldn't take advantage of the space. After parking my been in the designated spot, I sat on the porch and enjoyed the sounds of the woods. And the cats, who came to say hello and get scratches. One of them even came with me on my walk around the trail on the property. The parking spot wouldn't fit a larger RV, but a van for just fine. Great spot, whether you use the Bunkhouse or not.
