Transform Your Story Into A Fairytale.
Reawaken Your Inner Child & Reconnect With Your Authentic Self In A 5-acre Enchanted Forest.
The Inntirety Healing Center is a wilderness retreat and glamping area in Kansas City, KS. It offers a path for awakening your body, heart, and mind and restoring harmony with life through self-discovery and emergence into the senses.
Inntirety is a forest restoration project powered by love, and it will forever be a work in progress! The camping areas and trails leading to them are groomed, finished, and regularly maintained. Please consider that Inntirety is not in the 'luxury' camping category, as this is not our intention. We try to integrate into the natural setting and provide an intimate and immersive experience by combining earthing, exploration, play, and discovery.
We have beautiful and unique amenities, including a forest barrel sauna, a wood fire-heated clawfoot tub flower bath experience, a mini zipline, an outdoor shower, and hanging tree pods.
Finally, enjoy a complimentary continental breakfast, which you can self-prepare! We supply homemade waffle mix, oatmeal, coffee, and tea.
This land holds so much history, and unfortunately, prior inhabitants used a small area within this beautiful forest as a dumping ground for old appliances, car parts, and other retired debris. We are carefully working on removing and restoring this space as we can. As a nod to the prior inhabitants of this land, we are carefully collecting any artifacts found and reintegrating them into our building projects or transforming them into found-object art pieces.
10 minutes from The Legends, Speedway, and American Royal(coming soon).
10 minutes from Azura Amphitheater & Renissance Festival Grounds.
20 minutes from Downtown Kansas City, Historic River Market KC, The Crossroads.
20 minutes from Overland Park Convention Center.
We are a substance, alcohol-free area for many reasons. A bottle of wine is acceptable, but Inntirety is a place of healing and exploration. Thank you for observing this request.
We live on the property in the main house. Google Maps is mildly accurate, but it is like saying we are located at our neighbor's property. The house is green and has a wrap-around deck. If you aren't sure, please feel free to text me.
We want to acknowledge that Inntirety Healing Center is on the traditional, ancestral, and current home of Native Americans, Indigenous, and First Nations people. We ask you to join us in acknowledging the many tribal groups from our area, including the Jíwere, Kaw/Kansa, Otoe-Missouria, Shawnee, and Kickapoo tribes. We honor the elders, both past and present, and this calls us to continue to learn their stories and how to be better stewards of the land we occupy.
Camping/Glamping Sites
We have four glamping areas: two bell tents, a vintage pop-up camper, a tiny treehouse cabin, and a more primitive camping area with a tee-pee-style tent. Each site has a firepit or chiminea. If it is unsafe to burn, we will let you know. If conditions are dangerous for burning, each site has a mini BBQ grill. It is very important to keep your door zipped or shut. We try our hardest to keep bugs out so you are comfortable within. Each site has insense, and this is a magical bug detourant.
Inntirety Cafe / Lounge
Mini-Kitchen Area
If you don't feel like cooking or preparing your morning coffee at your site, you can use the community mini-kitchen area in the Inntirety Cafe. There are cooking utensils, a 2-burner electric stovetop, a French press, an electric kettle, and pots and pans. There is also a water station within the kitchen area. There is complimentary coffee, tea, creamer, sugar, butter, cooking oil, and a few other items for cooking. Please clean up the area if you decide to use the community mini-kitchen.
* We do not have running water inside the community area, but a sink is set up near the Forest Sauna for washing dishes.
Inntirety Lounge
Our community lounge is located within the Inntirety Cafe. Inside, you will find books, games, art supplies, and more. You are welcome to cool off, chill out, and relax during your stay. If you would like to borrow a book, game, etc., to return it to your campsite, please return it upon leaving.
Solar Shower
Just outside of the Forest Sauna is a solar shower with a small changing area. We have a water warming station near the outdoor sink to use for your shower. Inside the cafe, there is a laundry basket you can place your laundry in after you are done. Body wash, shampoo, and conditioner are in a basket by the shower. Solar Shower Instructions: If you want a warm shower, plug in the water heater near the sink. It takes about 1 hour to heat the water. Fill the white bucket with water. Walk over to the solar shower area and place it on the cinder blocks. Put water pump in the bucket. To turn on the pump, press the button for 3 seconds first and then once to activate.
Groomed Trails
The Inntirety forest has a groomed trail about a 3/4 mile loop. If you go off the trail, please be aware that you will probably get poison ivy, ticks, and other things you might not want to bring home as a souvenir. Please stay on the trails.
Zip Line
We have a 100ft zip line that guests are free to use. Please sign a waiver in the lounge before usage.
Forest Spa Add-Ons:
Wilderness Barrel Sauna
Please let us know if you would like to use the sauna. It takes some time for it to heat up. Further instruction is at the sauna. We will ask that you sign a liability release if you want to use the sauna.

Milo Farm was established organically a few years ago. The energy at Milo so amazing we wanted to share! There's a story behind the sacredness of this land, Loni can share that with you if you ask! There are 5 different ecosystems at Milo, all which hold their own magic!🪄
Milo has mant tent sites, car camping sites (for retroverted cars & sprinter vans), 6 cabins, a luxury guest space for you to stay! Sorry we DO NOT have any RV spots at this time. Our cabins are the Hippie Trailer, which is located near the west woods near the Fairy Forest. Then the Bunkhouse just past the big barn on the north end of the property. The lodge, where the Airbnb and pool are is centrally located on the land. We rent out the lower level guest quarters for non-campers. We have a Hobbit Hut near the Frog Pond, a Boho Bus near the entry way and several Vardos (gypsy wagons). For our tent campers there are tent sites in the Eastfield, including the Movie set location of the DM Cabin, and for diehard campers the beauty of primitive pack-in/pack-out camping of Freedom Field is a joy! Feel the energy of the sacred land.
We also have SO may attractions! There are 2 stocked ponds, miles of trails, pool, Zen garden, farm animals, a library and more. Find all the portals here!
Bless Mother Earth and spend some time in nature at this magical place.
Great for the spiritually minded with several meditation spots. There are events happening some weekends you can participate in. We have a Call to Prayer 9:30am every day in the Art Studio/Spirit Shack, you may join us! Loni is a spiritual intuitive and can do a reading using the Milo Farm Oracle cards she created! Ask for availability of these things. Milo has a lot to offer!

We are on 7 beautiful acres in Baldwin City, KS. We're in town, but you'll feel like you're secluded in the country so you get the convenience of being close to downtown Baldwin, just 3 minutes away, while also feeling like you're in the middle of nowhere peacefully camping, just you and the birds. Our "glamper" is a 1960's retro camper that has been fully restored. The outside still looks very retro, but when you step inside you'll instantly surrender to the relaxation that awaits. Sink into the pile of fluffy pillows, take in the breathtaking boho vibe and the many amenities including A/C and Heat, wifi, a microwave, television with Netflix, refrigerator, waterless toilet and hand-washing sink. Games and snacks are tucked away in the kitchen area for you to enjoy your leisurely time at The Nest! With a large deck on the front you can take in the views of a nearby pond and a meandering creek which serves as a wildlife highway. Don't be surprised when a deer walks within view or a blue heron flies overhead. The deck is adorned with overhead lights that stretch to a nearby firepit and outdoor sitting area. On the other side of the camper you can snooze your worries away in the hammock, perfect for napping or reading a favorite book. The pond, just feet away from the camper is full of fish including crappie, catfish and bass and fishing poles are available for your use. Near the pond you'll find a small shelter house for up close views of the pond. The family of geese and ducks you'll see walking around are permanent residents of Duck's Landing, hence the name. Adjacent to the property there's a 9 hole golf course. Additionally Baldwin has several restaurants and shops to spend a leisurely day exploring our beautiful, historic town.

Weekend Trip to The Light Center
This was my second time here! We stayed at the red tail yurt and Susan was extremely timely and welcoming. She answered any questions I had and even invited us to a peace circle event that was happening over my weekend stay.
Since the temperature rose to a steep 90 degrees, we ended up staying at the community barn for a quite a bit of time, which is beautifully furnished. You can tell how much it’s cared for. Our favorite part about the barn was the library corner adorned with a massage chair, which we certainly made good use of.
There are plenty of trails throughout the light center, and aside from the maintained trails, the woodlands remains largely undisturbed. This created an authentic hiking experience that made us really feel like we were surrounded by the wilderness. For critter lovers like us, we came across a lot of frogs and a few turtles on the land, which was quite a delight.
Overall, I would definitely come again for a third time!

2 nights at Milo Farm Sacred Land
Milo Farm is my favorite place to camp, I’ve been there about six times in the last year. Every time I go, magical things happen on that land! We stayed in the Hippie Trailer and it was so lovely to be cool in there when it was super hot, and dry when it was rainy, we found so much magic along the trails, in the fairy forest, at the temple and by the Wisdom Tree. Their new library is SO cozy and the book collection is amazing. There was also a tornado warning while we were there and Loni made sure to accommodate a safe shelter during that time with other lovely camping folks. I can’t wait to come back!

This was my first time visiting Kansas and my stay at The Light Center made it so memorable. For making a cross country trip, this was an amazing place to settle for a couple of nights. Susan and the volunteers were very kind and welcoming. They made sure my time at their cabin was taken care of. I came with my little dog and we had such a calming experience exploring the forest trail on the property. It was absolutely beautiful and my favorite stop on my week long journey. I hope to visit again!

Unfortunately the shower did not work but she was very hospitable, she stocked us with a pack of water bottles (we also brought our own water) and otherwise enjoyable time. Easy to bring friends there and good for a group setting to hang out. We were careful of poison ivy on property but easy enough to stay away from and if someone is looking to get away for the weekend definitely a good place to go!

Awesome place and host. No light pollution or hwys near by. Definitely do a card reading, even if you're not staying there.

1 night at The Light Center
My night at the yurt was peaceful, and beautiful! Complete with wildlife and shooting stars. The yurt is clean and relaxing, definitely recommend.

Great campground, except RV overflow campers.

Rabbit Ridge Campground
Great primitive site with access to multiple fishing spots. Caught plenty of crappie and a couple catfish.
Downside to this trip was RV campers showing up after quiet hours on a Friday night who had not bothered to reserve other campgrounds and found them full. Ran their generators, played music, left truck lights pointing into tents - the usual lack of etiquette.

We stayed in a primitive tent camping spot. While the setting was nice, with trees and a view of the lake, there were drawbacks. A short walk away a shower house was available, which was a prime reason we picked this campground. In the women's shower house there were 7 showers - but only 2 worked and 1 of those was a low shower designed to be used while sitting.

Really nice sunrise. A little buggy in the summer but mostly moths.
