IMPORTANT - If you are driving from the EAST end of my road, there is a LOW VIADUCT. Some trailers may not fit. Please drive down to the WEST end of Locust Grove Road that intersects with Glenway Road. My place is located on the NORTH side of Locust Grove Road, in the middle of the road, about .75 miles from either end.
Guests can choose to pitch a tent in my generously sized back yard and have easy access to the house for water and bathroom use. If that is not a high priority, guests may drive out to the back of the property and pitch a tent by the mulberry trees and feel like you are really "off grid". There is no water or bathroom facilities at the back of the property but guests will have access to a downstairs bathroom, located in the laundry room, through the garage. The door has a keypad lock and the code will be given to you just before you arrive. I do NOT provide blankets, pillows, towels or other camping equipment like chairs and tables. I do have some extra chairs outside but only a few. Remember to bring your own, just like any other campground. If you need camping equipment, I do have some available to rent but a very limited supply of items. First come, first served.

Most beautiful, warm, picturesque s
There are not enough words to describe Red Lilh Orchard. It was the cutest, safest, beautifully gorgeous, convenient and a warm place to camp. The orchard is beautiful with corn fields, apples and pears and firld that stretches across the horizon. You wake up to a sound of the horse, the ducks and the chickens and find them all mingling around. The bathrooms are spotless, perfect to use and the host is very warm and hospitable. The access to the house is lit with automatic lighting making moving around convenient. Their dog, hannah is the cutest and our dog befriended her in a minute. She had the best time!! If we could we would have stayed here longer but we were onwards to Montana! Our camp set up was picturesque to say the least. Will definitely come back.




I saw the Milky Way and met a cool dog. If you need any other reason to visit, I’m not sure what it was.
I will remind myself next time to be more communicative with hosts. My expectation was that we would have a choice of locations to set up camp but those spots were already in use. We also brought our dogs, and Renee was unaware. Our first meeting was a shaky as a result and caused some anxiety.
Overall, Renee has a beautiful property and we are lucky and thankful for the experience.
What a great place to stay! Renée was welcoming and gracious host. She allowed us to park our small camper next to the barn door where there was electricity and water. There was a full bath in the main house basement just 50 feet away. Other folks were tent camping on the grass areas. She organized a Saturday night bonfire. People from China, India, Texas and Wisconsin all had a fun time getting to know each other and comparing notes. The small farm has chickens, ducks, cats, dog and a horse. Madison was just a half hour away so we attended an event there. Plenty of room to spread out. Way better than being parked in a slot at the crowded state park.
I had a very pleasant stay. Woke up to the sounds of ducks gabbing away every morning. Renee was a kind and gracious host.
Nice spot to pitch a tent. Close to Madison WI. Bathroom and shower clean. Met some other hip campers staying there from Europe?.
This was a nice place to spend a night in the middle of August. The farm was in full effect with the corn and other crops making a nice backdrop to enjoy the stars. This spot is outside of Madison, but not too far if you are looking to do anything in the area.
Access to the bathroom was nice and appreciated, but be aware there is a direct trade between how far "out there" you can get and the walk to the toilet. This can be from camping in a backyard next to the house on one hand to out in a quiet field on the other. The other thing I needed to be reminded was bring any equipment you need - like tables and stuff. There are a couple of chairs, but not much else.
The host was extremely responsive and kind. She gave us a great tour of the property and made us feel very welcome. I highly recommend checking out this spot, especially if you love plants and wildlife.
