Cheryl was such a great host and I really enjoyed my time camping at Fangthorn Forest Farm. They provided me with a camp chair since I didn't have one and made me feel so welcome. I loved getting to pet and feed all the animals too! I will be back. :)



I went here with my son for his very first camping trip, and loved everything about it. The hosts were super friendly, the site was nice and open, plus there were plenty of farm animals for him to see. He even pet their alpacas! Tons of fun!!
We had an absolutely wonderful trip! The campsite is beautifully maintained with a clean outhouse kept separate just down the lighted path. Plenty of spots to choose from for pitching your tent and plenty of space to spread out. Our hosts were friendly, gracious, and accommodating, providing a picnic table, folding tables, plenty of firewood, grates for the fire ring, and Halloween decorations! Feeding the animals was a fun experience, and listening talking to each other around us added to the charm. We look forward to coming back soon!
This place was nice and private. We loved being able to see the animals and give some treats to them. Campsite was clean and the outhouse the host created was nice!
Cheryl’s campsite is great! It’s perfect for the camp rookies like us. We had a peaceful day over there.
Super cool spot on a VERY rural farm. Wonderful hosts - very welcoming and accommodating.

Very glad you enjoyed your stay!
Cheryl was so great with the kids! Beautiful property! Very accommodating.
If you like animals they have them. Very giving folks. Have a great place for a tent set up and RV. Highly recommended!
