Don met us when we arrived and helped us pick the perfect spot on his beautiful lavender farm! The peaceful place among the rolling hills of Key Peninsula was our ideal escape! I highly recommend booking ahead to experience the lavender bloom in mid to late summer! 💜

Glencove pasture site #1
Our family had the pleasure of staying on Astrid and Donald’s farm in a very spacious spot for about three weeks in our 25’ travel trailer. We had travelled over 1100 miles and stayed at many campsites in the weeks before discovering this gem. This camping spot was our favorite of them all (and we kept choosing to extend our stay here instead of moving anywhere else.)
It’s just so peaceful. Between the tall cedars, the neighboring horses in your “back yard,” and the rows of lavender and rustic farm setting in front; it was a complete getaway for us from our everyday life.
Our 4 year-old absolutely loved exploring the property, especially the small forested trails that could be found and the fun playground equipment nearby. The faint smell of lavender in the air was nice, and Astrid’s adorable lavender shop was really fun to tour. We loved watching the deer come through every evening while hanging out around our propane fire pit. All in all, it was one of our favorite places to camp out of the many, many we’ve ever stayed at.
If you are forced to work a little like I did, we had cell service and starlink service just fine. The owners also helped us have 110v power at one point when our battery died, and even let us fill up our freshwater tank one time too. (There’s a $5 dump station at Penrose state campground about 20 minutes up the road.)
Absolutely cannot wait to come back!

It was a quiet peaceful place, and comfortable to camp. I loved smelling the lavender fields throughout the day and night, and walking around the property with my little kids. Don was very welcoming.

Car/ tent camping was absolutely amazing. The area is very peaceful and serene, you’re close enough to town if you need to run to the store for any forgotten items.

Beautiful shaded meadow with relaxing scent of lavender, friendly horses and very quiet. Host is committed to sustainability and has put a lot of love into working the land without chemicals (win!). The pasture where we camped is well maintained, has 2 picnic table/benches, water hose, electrical outlet (bring your electric tea kettle!). The porta-potty was an unexpected bonus.
Donald was was very quick to respond to all communications, gave us a tour and even provided kayaks/life jackets/paddles. The kayaking was amazing, we saw seals! Donald is super friendly and even has some essentials stocked should you have forgotten sunscreen, etc. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this spot to other HipCampers!

Very pretty, and very private! A lovely green space for a quiet getaway. Didn't see another human the whole time.

Wonderful, peaceful stay! Nice quiet pasture lined by lovely trees. Potable water and extension cord were a plus. To get to the (optional, fee) beach, it’s about a ten minute walk and then through host’s backyard. Using host’s kayaks was a blast. Bring water shoes, walking on barnacles is rough.

Great space for our family to relax. Kids loved picking berries and combing the beach at low tide. This was our favorite HipCamp experience of the summer!

This spot was perfect! I needed somewhere to park my truck camper so I could work remotely for a few days, and the pasture was quiet, very private and had good signal for my hotspot. There’s a power outlet cord too so I was able to recharge each day, and a hose so I could fill up my water jug which is going to last me for a few weeks now as I continue on my trip. I loved hearing the horses neighing next door, and I picked blackberries from the patch on the pasture. I got the beach access which was definitely the coolest part, it’s basically a private beach and it was warm enough to swim! Don warned me I might meet a seal or sea lion so I didn’t go out too far, but after swimming when I got back to the beach I did see a seal swim by which was pretty neat! There is a grocery store, gas station, etc a short drive away in the little town as well. Great stay, exactly what I needed. Thanks Don!
