This is my second time staying at the chicken coop house. It is very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

This is a very special place. The location was convenient to the interstate but not so close you could hear it. The site was nicely secluded and the host was very nice.

Sunrise Tent
Beautiful place, clean bathrooms and shower a short walk away. I have a rooftop tent and we parked in the flat gravel lot behind the event barn. There were no events so we had the place to ourselves. The property is encircled by cornfields so feels private.

There was a miscommunication. No one was there when we arrived so we did not know where to camp, but we did talk to the owner and got it resolved. She gave us a refund.

The space was adorable. We enjoyed the fire pit and shared spaces at night. The bathroom and shower were a very nice treat! I would absolutely stay again!
We had an absolutely wonderful one-night stay at Blue Tin Ranch in our rooftop tent! The property is incredibly beautiful and well-maintained. We loved being able to plug in and charge up our gear, which was a huge plus for us. The indoor bathrooms and showers were fantastic—spotlessly clean and so nice to use after a day of traveling. It is a peaceful, welcoming, and unique spot. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great camping experience!

Sunset Camp
Lovely site! We stayed by the tree in the back yard area and it was super comfortable and peaceful. The showers and bathroom were also great. Thank you so much!
I camped for my Outdoors Unsupervised YouTube channel in a tent with a hotstove in the snow. I enjoyed the serenity of this location. It did have electric to run a light and charge up cameras gear. They do also have more sought after lodgin' but I'd rather camp outside. The bonus was it had a shower house with heated bathroom. Def cheapest and best camp I ever used on HipCamp so far. They also provided a small fridge and a coffee maker with coffee in the shower/bathroom housin' area. Had an amazin' time. I did leave a day early cause 35mph winds was expected at 7AM and in a tent that is def not desirable. Cooked some amazin' meals while there. All videos post on YT Start Feb 9th

Very kind host and beautiful views. It was a very peaceful site and one I would definitely recommend visiting.
The location was right off the highway but once you get to your spot the road noise was very minimal. Host was very accommodating for a very last minute booking (less than 2 hours warning with a 9pm arrival). Host was out of town but very responsive to messages and helped how she could, we are pretty low maintenance though. It was very windy in this area but I think if you only had a tent you could find some way to break the wind easily. There were other guests on the property but no problems arose and everyone kept to themselves. Bathroom/shower access was a huge plus. Also super friendly kitty cats on property. The parking was ample, the fire pit was awesome and this met all of our needs for backpacker car camping 👍🏽

If you’re looking for a nice spot to get some sleep in South East South Dakota, this is it. I was parked behind the barn. Lots of privacy. Also a fair amount of bugs but it was summer and next to a corn field so no surprise. Bring earplugs because the cows on the other side of the field could get noisy. And the occasional train might make its presence known. Again, earplugs took care of everything and I got a great night’s sleep. I’d stay here again. Thanks Kelley!
What a gem! Noreen was incredibly welcoming and upon arrival showed us around the gorgeous property. There was everything from a shower to a pergola to relaxing swings and plenty of peaceful areas with the backdrop of a cornfield privacy ‘hedge’. She offers various accommodations but we never even saw the other guests despite being on the same piece of property. The ranch can also be used as a wedding venue and that must be spectacular as well!

What a fantastic location at an amazing price. We loved our two nights here. The host was fantastic, welcoming, and helpful, and a pleasure to chat with.
Secluded among the corn field. Friendly hosts. Quiet and the showers are amazing. Highly recommend.
Perfect spot for a quick stay, parking was very easy for a sprinter van at night, good lighting, bathrooms and shower were clean and nice, very quiet and pretty location - highly recommend
Noreen was lovely and the land was perfect for our quick nights stay. They were so accommodating, and we had the best time. Would definitely recommend.
The host did not answer their phone or text messages for days leading up to the reservation. We were unable to check in because of this.
Well, no one ever responded to my two messages regarding my arrival. When I did arrive anyway, the host’s mom let me know her daughter was a contestant on Big Brother, and she had no access to the account.
I can tell the place might normally be really cute, but the outdoor areas were sort of disheveled, and I didn’t know where I could hang out. I was told a wedding was happening that weekend.
I imagine when the host is there, things run more smoothly.
The bathroom and showers are clean and open during the night which is helpful.

My partner and I were looking for a safe, convenient place to park our van overnight on a road trip to Denver, and Kelley’s spot was perfect. We arrived a bit late, but she welcomed us warmly and helped us find a great place to park. The bathrooms and showers were clean and well-maintained, such a nice bonus! We even got to relax on the swings as we wound down for the night. Though we were only there briefly, it’s clearly a peaceful, charming property--and would make a beautiful spot for a wedding!
What a cute spread! I was able to put my van in the back corner with the beautiful sky and corn fields. It’s so quiet out there that I got the best night’s sleep. They are also an event space so the bathrooms were on point and nicely decorated. Great place to stop when crossing the country and not too far Interstate 29. Great hosts who are friendly and leave you to it which I appreciate.

Two words. Absolutely Fantastic!!!!
I highly recommend!!!! It’s so peaceful, couldn’t even tell anyone else was staying there. Will definitely come back.
We loved the nice, quiet setting! The lights, buildings, and pavilion were so beautiful. We especially appreciated the availability of a shower! The art and iron fence and country decor were a nice touch. This would be such a great place for so many types of events. We really loved the mulberry tree by the old barn.
