We needed a safe night in Kansas during a cross country road trip with a dog. Tom’s site was perfect! Never thought Kansas would be so pretty.
Tom met us and guided us to the camp spots where we could park our camper. He had already made a fire for us and we cooked dinner over the fire watching the moonrise. Our dog loved running free in the field and gathering sticks while we sat by the fire. It was quiet (except for turkeys in the field), safe for the dog and everything we needed for a great sleep.
Absolutely recommend!

Easy to find. Nice location with things to see in the area. I had a bit of a problem getting the lock off the electric box. No cell service but good internet. Was able to message Christina and when messages didn’t work to solve the problem she came right over. Would stay with them again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. It was much more than we expected. Our host was very accommodating & was kind enough to give us a tour of his planes, which was a special treat for my husband being a pilot. The property is beautiful & quiet. The hosts have and continue to make improvements such as a compost toilet & shower building. There are picnic tables & a beautiful fire ring with firewood provided. We had 2-3 bars of Verizon, which was plenty for us. We only spent 1 night, but this will definitely be on our list to return to, especially with it being so convenient to I-70.

Amazing. Matt was the bomb. So smart, so intelligent, so motivated about his project— his vision and the work he has done is a miricle. The tour is a must. Treat yourself and stay here. After the tour and as campers settled in Matt build a huge fire pit fire. He joined the campers for fabulous conversation and more info about his project.
