## Overview

Our 400 acre family cow and pine tree farm most of which was purchased 60 years ago by my father and mother. My two siblings and me were raised here and later bought joining land that now makes up the 400 acres. We all still live on the farm with our families 1.4 mile down a dirt and gravel road. We all enjoy the peace and quiet that you will find here. Sounds of our cows, wildlife and the occasional rumble of a distant train is all you will hear on our farm. Our Hidden Creek is a short fun hike to cool your tired feet. Wide hiking paths all the way around our property if you would like a long hike.

> Melissa & Dennis are wonderful hosts! They are attentive and responsive and made us feel so welcome at their Hipcamp! The amenities are fantastic with a flush toilet and a HOT shower (a luxury for us who are used to primitive camping). Though we were sans kids for the weekend this is an excellent camp for kiddos with plenty of room to roam and explore and even get some energy out on the playset. Site 3 was perfect for our tent and hammocks with a grove of pine trees just nearby. Highly recommend for anyone in the area, we’ll definitely be back!!

> Melissa and Dennis were there to meet me and show me to my spot. They were extremely kind, hospitable, gave me information on the local "spots" and responded immediately to any questions I had. This is a family farm and I got to meet several of the family members, everyone was fun and kind. On more than one occasion they brought me fresh fruit, vegetables and herbs from the property. One of the family members drove me around the property a couple of times at sunset, STUNNING!! I attended church with them and it was one a great sermon message from the pulpit.
