1 night at Hideaway Hills Primitive Camp

Kelli and her husband were incredible. After meeting both for mere minutes I felt like i had been a friend for years. Then friend and family camp is huge beyond belief. The other sites I saw were all very private and more than spacious. They are all in the steep hills of Kentucky though and when they say they recommend four wheel drive, believe them, but you can still enjoy their camps. They were more than happy to haul my gear to camp in their side-by-side when my motorcycle couldn’t make it so don’t let that scare you. This place is worth the adventure!

2 nights at The Viking Longhall

We tent camped on this beautiful creekside, viking-themed respite and were quite comfortable even within rain and heat. There are plenty of trees for shade and dipping our feet in the creek to cool off was a delight. David, our host, was warm, welcoming, gracious and friendly. We stayed there while visiting Serpent Mound which is very close-by. We cannot wait to return. We truly felt so refreshed. There's something magical about hearing that creek at night.

2 nights at The LAAAAND (just you & 50 acres)

I don’t even know where to start! This property is absolutely gorgeous. The trail markers around the property show off some of the coolest spots, but even just relaxing by the fire pit was beautiful. Lots of wildlife sounds especially at night. The site is very secluded and feels like a backcountry camp! This is my favorite Hipcamp find so far! Will hopefully be back soon :)

Weekend Trip to The Viking Longhall

Amazing spot! David was super nice and hosts a very fun complex. A real treat and one of my favorite stays yet. He also recommended Quiver Heart Trail nearby which was a beautiful hike.

Weekend Trip to The Viking Longhall

Highly recommend if you’re looking for a magical place to reconnect with nature but still sleep in a bed. The creekside cabin was very clean and cozy! David and Ivea were incredibly kind and accommodating. The place is clean, artistically beautiful, and honestly just felt magical.

Weekend Trip to Backwoods Hideaway

This site is so nice. It's the perfect spot to unwind and relax with your spouse or chill with your family. We were lucky enough to be there on the 4th of July (also my birthday) Aaron was so nice and invited us to his get together and fireworks. We had such a good time, and got to meet some of his family too. They were just as sweet and welcoming as Aaron, the all even made it a point to come tell me happy birthday too. His daughter and her husband were my favorite part of the weekend! She is so sweet and her husband is the same. We didn't really go exploring, as we just wanted a relaxing weekend, not exploring weekend. We did however venture to the little gas station down the road, they have really good food! We really just hung around and did whatever. It was so nice. The cabin is really nice, the host really has thought of everything in there. The bathroom is even outside, which really gave it an added touch of charm. He has completely stocked that place, he has everything a lady would need. The site itself was so beautiful, especially at night. It's really the perfect amount of off grid camping to disconnect, but enough convenience to create an amazing camp site. We will be back for sure!!

Weekend Trip to The Viking Longhall

Fantastic asthetics. Beautifully done and maintained. Hosts were very hospitable and knowledgable of the area. The yurt was very comfy and inviting. First time in a yurt and it was a blast. Hosts went above and beyond by providing a battery unit for my CPAP machine.

1 night at Hideaway Hills Primitive Camp

Great hosts and wonderful place to stay (need a 4x4) and they have a phenomenal communal area with a small pond.

Second stay and would still 100% recommend David’s place! So grateful for the nature, birds, stars, love, fun and beauty! There’s nothing better than hearing a babbling brook, bird songs and a crackling fire all at once :) perfect hosts all around!

Weekend Trip to Tranquility Spring Campground

Very beautiful and peaceful spot. Everything was very well maintained and really nice. Couldn’t ask for a better spot.

2 nights at HAYMARK FARMSTAYS Private RV Sites

It was a wonderful weekend camping with awesome views of sunsets and nature. The hosts are super nice and extremely helpful. I highly recommend!

The property was absolutely gorgeous. Beautiful sunsets. Rolling green fields. You will probably be visited by some cattle as they wander and graze, along with an adorable herd of little goats. The drive way is long, winding and hilly but worth it to get back at the edge of the open fields. The hosts were very sweet and accommodating. I wish we could have stayed longer!

1 night at Home Afarm

It was secluded, comfy, and clean with a great view on the porch. Would def stay again

Panoramic view from standing in the cabin looking out the open side -- note that this makes the site look bigger than it is, but I just wanted to capture how much you are privately enclosed on that side from neighbors.

2 nights at Trace Space KY

Super happy to have found this sweet little spot ...even though it's in a residential area with neighbors around, there's a sense of privacy thanks to the fence that goes around part of the cabin site. I was never bothered by anyone in the area and was left to enjoy the site in peace. I'm a solo female traveler and felt very safe in the space. Recommended for single travelers or couples who want to get close and cozy. It's far enough from main roads that I wasn't bothered by traffic noise. For someone who usually primitive camps to save money on travel, the site is an incredible value with the included convenience of a protective roof over your head, a clean porta potty only several steps away, and parking right next to the site. Packing in and out has never gone so easily and quickly for me as it did here. And whenever you need something or have a question, MJ is so quick to respond and helpful in every way! Things to know before you go: Cell service is a little spotty at the site (I have TMobile). The cabin's wifi helps get your directions downloaded when you want to go places. You have to drive about 20 minutes for gas and ice, and about 30 minutes for restaurants as close as Morehead. If you go there, visit the Fuzzy Duck for coffee/tea and Coffee Tree Books, great local shops all in the same building. Lovely birds in the area and spectacular summer night lightning bug shows. The gooseberries in the garden were a special treat. I can't wait to book again!

Weekend Trip to Myhio Haven Horse Farm

My family loved camping at the Peachtree site. It felt secluded even though we were just down the path from the amenities that families need. The views on the farm were breathtaking and we enjoyed the feeling of privacy we had at our site. The kids are already talking about coming back.

Janine and Clinton’s property was beautiful and well kept/maintained. We really enjoyed our 3 night stay. The campsite was exactly what we were looking for. The hosts were very friendly and hospitable as well and made sure that if we needed anything during our stay to let them know. We hope to return to this campsite in the future!

Weekend Trip to Tranquility Spring Campground

Great private site right next to a field - the stars were amazing at night! While it's somewhat close to a road, there was very little traffic during the day and none at night. Host supplied electric, water, and firewood - couldn't ask for much else!

The best all around experience you could ask for! We had essentially a whole hilltop to ourselves, with beautiful views of both the sunset and sunrise. The grass was cut, area clean, and the closest neighbors were about a 1/4 mile away - which allowed our dog to have a great and unbothered time. The water spicket right in the campsite was a bonus! Not far up the road were full bathrooms with showers, and a very nice common area with games and amenities for anyone. The hosts were communicative and friendly, it’s very clear they take care of this place. A great time and we hope to return!

I can't stop bragging about My awesome weekend stay at the Possum Ridge Ranch. Where do I begin?🤔 when I arrived I was excited and impressed with the natural beauty of this vast and abundant 375 acre land. I have to admit I was taken back and a little overwhelmed by the camping possibilities. On arrival we were met by the hosts Liz and Mark. They showed us around and said we could camp anywhere on the property they were very helpful in narrowing it down to a very private and spacious camp spot. A perfect spot right next to a trickling stream and a short distance to all 3 of the waterfalls. We didn't see another human, except the hosts, all weekend. There are hiking trails throughout the property and as I mentioned 3 refreshing waterfalls. After a day of heavy duty hiking I showered in the waterfall. The water is crystal clear and I never felt so clean! We hiked up to the perfect spot for a view of the breathing taking unset. And in the early morning we witnessed an awesome sunrise. Liz and Mark are laid back and down to earth good people. I felt very free and safe on their land. There is a central bathhouse with a flush toilet and shower. I was impressed with how clean everything is. In addition to camping there are also accommodations of cabins on the property. There is also a central gathering spot with complimentary coffee, vending machines, and a real dart board!! I have to say, Possum Ridge Ranch is my favorite hipcamp!! A real utopian paradise! Thanks Liz and Mark✌️

What an Amazing property! This was beyond my expectations. We didn't even need to leave the property to hike and swim!! Took a nice soak under the cool waterfall which was about 50 ft away from our site!! We watched the sunrise and set with amazing views of both!!! Heaven on Earth litterally! Very hard to leave. Liz and Mark took great care of us and were the best couple!!! I can't wait to get back there!!!!

The Viking Longhall

The Viking longhall has been 9 years in the making by a group of semi serious Viking enthusiasts: the result is a 60 foot long building that has 18, 8,x4' sleeping berths. Set apart from the main open area it also boasts 2 meeting rooms and a kitchen. The campsite is a very peaceful place. Some go as far as to say a healing place! We are proud of what we have achieved and now want people to come out and enjoy it also. The field is close enough to the Appalachian highway (state route 32) for convenience, but far enough not to be bothered by it. The area is steeped in Native American culture. In fact, the world famous Serpent Mound is but 8 miles away, with many other Adena culture sites within easy driving distance. It's also in the heart of the Amish community. The area is known for its natural beauty with many hiking trails and canoeing opportunities. The area is awash in beauty and history from the ancient mound culture to the amish culture. The area has many hiking trails some of which are part of the buckeye trail and range in length from an easy 1 mile loop to rugged hikes of many miles. Come out and share the land that we have loved for the last 30 years PLEASE NOTE….WE WILL NO LONGER BE SUPPLYING BEDDING OR TOWELS.

The LAAAAND (just you & 50 acres)

When you want to get away to nature, what do you envision? We're a family that loves to camp; and while we love a stop at a KOA or community campground, we sometimes crave quiet time in nature without the noise and distraction of other campers. That's what makes The LAAAAND so special. The property is comprised of 50 pristine acres, with a mix of fields and woods, that bump up against another 250 acres owned by our family friends. The southern perimeter of the property is all cliff line, so you feel truly remote. The possibilities of sound pollution are limited to a far-off dog barking, horses being ridden down a nearby trail, or the possible hum of a distant lumber yard. Other than that, you'll mostly hear the wind rustling trees, deer and critters making their way through the woods, and possibly a waterfall at certain times of the year. Oh, and you will absolutely hear whipoorwhills, most likely at a time you'd rather not (we've decided they're charming). Over the nearly 2 decades we've owned this property we have spent countless weekends enjoying the simplest of pleasures; watching butterflies dance in the tree canopy, having dance parties at sunset on the deck, forging new trails and hiking into the unkown, sitting in the truck bed late at night gazing at a star-covered sky counting shooting stars. If you are looking for a space and place to reset and reconnect, The LAAAAND is waiting for you. (***Please note, we leave our personal camper on the property for the camping season, so you will see it when you arrive to the right of the campsite***)
