Site 19 was such a great spot.
Walking distance to the lake where you can fish, boating and swimming. It has so much room for you and family. I loved the area and great shading that allows wind and great campfire scenery. We ended our stay with some bird watching and caught some Cardinals and Blue Jays

Absolutely beautiful property. The campsite we stayed at for the weekend was exactly how it was described online- we loved it!! Plenty of fantastic hiking trails and a little late to go for a swim or take one of the canoes out in. Definitely come back!!

It's a beautiful campground with camping spots designed for those who like wide open spaces and others for those who enjoy secluded spots. You will need to be prepared to not have water at each campsite but it is provided at the check-in area. When we got there, it was pouring rain but within 15 minutes after the rain stopped, we were able to get around and set up the tent because the soil is sand and absorbs the water right away.

What a great camping site. Secluded and peaceful. The lake and ponds have excellent fishing. I've already recommended this site to a bass fishing group I belong to. I'll be back.

Beautiful trails with lots of places to explore. The campsite was easy to access but still very private with lots of space, and the host was super helpful and friendly. Will definitely return!

My friend and I absolutely LOVED everything about 5D Ranch. Upon arrival, we were immediately greeted and shown the way to our campsite. They were very welcoming and made sure to make us feel comfortable before heading off. We had an amazing time enjoying the sounds of nature, grilling and sleeping in the woods. We even got to take enjoy the on site ponds with free paddle boats and caught a bunch of fish!
I would highly recommend 5D for anyone looking to find a relaxing get away, family time, or with friends!

It’s a perfect place for tent camping. I’ve been to two different sites and both were very private and wooded. You truly feel like you’re out in nature and away from civilization. I’ll be going back for sure!

We loved 5d! Campsite 9 was very spacious but also secluded. Only a 6 min walk to the bathroom. The tree canopy shielded us from some sprinkles and the hot sun. Trails were beautiful and we really enjoyed fishing in the pond. Nicely maintained land, no trash, and no loud neighbors. Just the great outdoors. Can't wait to come back!

We had a great time with our group on 10 (including 6 kids). The are was very well kept and the area felt private even though there were a few other campers on property. We’ve been here several times before and we’ll be back again.

Me and my girlfriend spent the weekend at site 10 on the ranch. Had an amazing time! Camp was quiet and so were the neighbors. Julie was so helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed meeting the animals! Trust me, it’s worth it. Something about combing a horses mane hahahaha. Stars, lake and quigley the dog were all amazing experiences. Can’t wait for our next weekend there!

We stayed for the weekend in our teardrop camper. Spots are spread out enough that you feel fairly private but still can have a nice chat with your neighbors. We loved our stay!

We had an amazing experience at this campsite! Our group consisted of two families with children ranging from 5 to 11 years old, and the ranch was the perfect size for them. The kids had a blast riding their bikes to the lake, fishing from the boats, and paddling around in the boats. The sunsets over the lake were absolutely stunning, and the overall vibe of the site was everything we hoped for. It felt like we were immersed in the forest, surrounded by trees, which made the experience even more magical.
The site itself was spotless, and we really appreciated the thoughtful touches, like the rural toilet near Site 12. It was equipped with toilet paper, a light with a sensor, and added a level of comfort we weren't expecting. Even the family dog was friendly and welcoming, which was a nice bonus!
Julie’s family made the experience even more special. Everyone was incredibly kind, and we enjoyed chatting with them. Eddie, in particular, shared fascinating stories from his wonderfully adventurous life.
We’re already looking forward to returning and exploring other sites! Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful, family-friendly camping experience.

This is our second trip to 5D ranch. We brought out a small group of kids to celebrate an 11th birthday. Julie was wonderful in introducing us to her horses. Campsite 22 was perfect for our needs. We will be back!

Julie was very accommodating when we got to the ranch. Great area for novice campers. Loved the various activities we could do like walk the trails, fish, and boat on their lake and the layout of the ranch was easily mapped out. Still had signal in the area if we needed to make calls. Not completely quiet since we were able to hear the train a few times during our stay, but not a big deal in our opinion. We did forget a few things during our stay, but luckily there was a Walmart about 13 min down the road. Will definitely consider returning with the family soon.
