Camping at Jennifer's place is a serene escape into Nebraska's open prairies. Guests consistently praise the peaceful, private setting, often mentioning the friendly hosts and their collection of farm animals, including cows and a llama named Carl. The location offers breathtaking views with clear night skies perfect for stargazing. While it's a bit off the beaten path, many campers appreciate the tranquility and the chance to unwind in a natural setting.

It was great to set up in the pasture for the night and camp with the cows. We appreciated how private the site was and that we could take a shower before getting back on the road. Great spot in Nebraska! We'd love to camp again next time we're coming through.

That was a nice mellow 2 days. First morning, the beautiful rusty brown bulls were curious about my rig, but didn't come too close. It's nice to hear the horses as well, and saw a few. No wifi, but they offer a shower which is a nice perk. thanks Jennifer and family

Camping at Jennifer’s spot was an incredible experience! The clear night skies were breathtaking, with stars shining brilliantly. As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe and at ease throughout my stay. I’d absolutely return and would love to spend more time enjoying the peaceful outdoor setting and visiting the animals.

A taste of Nebraska

5 m campervan

Beautiful peaceful spot to pass a night. We were welcomed with a friendly tour of the massive property, and then posted up at a sweet spot among grazing cattle and acres upon acres of open space to enjoy the sunset while our dog investigated to he heart's delight. Off the beaten track to be sure, but I have to think, somewhat of an authentic taste of Nebraska for some road-weary travelers and our hound.

Cows + Quiet = 5/5

What a great experience on the way through Nebraska. If you want to have a story to tell and a fun memory, this is the Hipcamp to stay at. Located in a lovely field with some friendly cows, you'll enjoy the peace and quiet from being away from I-80. Would highly recommend and would stay here again in the future.

Camping among the farm

Tent

The site was beautiful and the owners and pets were friendly! It was always a delight to be greeted at the house by a friendly pup and cats. The camp site was comfortable and the included firewood was extremely helpful! Bathroom was clean and just a couple minute drive away. Be expectant of periodic ‘moo’s from cows nearby and bumpy country road. Nothing I would change about it :)

Is this the Shire? Nope- it’s a beautiful pasture in Nebraska. What a gorgeous place to disappear into the hills for a while. I loved relaxing and not having to interact with anyone else but cows. My daughter loved exploring the land and catching fireflies.

A great place to land. The pasture camping made for a gorgeous sunset and sunrise. Having access to a restroom--and even a shower--was a bonus.

Great little camp spot! I stopped here on a cross country drive and it was a great place for my dogs to stretch their legs. I enjoyed falling asleep to cows mooing & I appreciate that a shower is available.

Heaven on Earth

Tent

From the moment I got there, Jennifer and her husband were gracious and welcoming. The camping area was absolutely beautiful. I went alone, and the area was isolated from the rest of the world. I felt the weight of my big city suburban life roll off my shoulders. I wasn’t afraid of anything or anyone. It was perfect.

A little piece of Heaven

10 m travel trailer

Holy cow, this was a piece of Heaven! Such a beautiful place surrounded by hills, crops, cows and Carl the Llama. We spent 2 days out in Jennifer's pasture soaking up the beautiful weather and enjoying our furry neighbors. There's no light pollution at night so you can see so many stars, satellites, and shooting stars. Wish we had stayed longer. If you're looking to recharge and unplug, this is where you want to go!

Beautiful camping spot that is secluded and safe. Jennifer and her son, Gabe, were kind and helpful in getting us situated. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to camp with a nice fire pit and under a night sky full of stars. Bonus points for the lovely brown cows :)

We’ve stayed at Jennifer’s several times. We always find it relaxing for us and our dogs. There’s all the typical sights, sounds and smells with being around cattle. It’s just like being at home! As always- we will be back.
