Paradise Farm Glamping

This was my first experience reserving a spot on hipcamp and I'm thrilled to be able to leave a glowing review.

My wife and I loved our stay at Paradise Farm. The location was ideal for us. It's close enough to activities while being just remote enough to feel like you are isolated. If it wen't for hearing an occasional car on the country road, would might think that the goats were your only companions.

The tent was nice. It had more than enough space for two. I liked covered porch and small table in front. Our weather was ideal so we didn't really need to use the porch much but I can see how it would be nice on a rainy day.

I especially liked how much room we had on the site. We are used to typical car camping in state parks and if you are familiar with that, this is the size of a 4 combined family site or one very large group camp site.

We got to meet the owners, Mary and Jim and they were so gracious. I'm thankful that they opened up their property for us to enjoy. The on site manager, Kathe. was awesome. She was able to answer any questions we had. It was nice to know there was someone nearby.

It's a short hike from the parking to the site. We brought quite a bit of stuff for our three night stay and Kathe was able to give us a wagon to help with the move.

If you like hiking, the ice age trail west bend segment is very close. I did a 7 mile out and back going north and I really liked the mostly wooded journey. For even more hiking, the Kettle Moraine northern forest unit is only 30 minutes away.

Pro Tip: If you are wanting farm fresh eggs either for your stay or to take home, ask Kathe, she can set you up :)

The perfect getaway! This is a beautifully maintained property that offers all of the amenities you need for a comfortable stay in the great outdoors. The tent is spacious and holds up to perfect standards in a wicked rain storm (we got hit hard and made it through without a drop! ) The is a great little firepit and an outhouse that comes with running water, handsoap, and hand towels. All of the animals on the farm are super friendly, and i cannot say enough about the owners, Jim and Mary, and the property manager, Kathe. They are the true definition of hosts! Be sure to ask about fresh eggs and honey-- you won't regret it!

Mary's place was absolutely magical. My friends and I had the very best time cooking over the fire, dancing around the property and enjoying the stunning nature space. It really exceeded our expectations. The tent was
comfy and beautiful and accommodating. We were so happy! Only suggestion is to bring extra blankets for sleeping! It can get a little chilly and it's better to be more prepared for warmth :)

Great place. Amazing host. Perfect for a quick getaway.

The site was amazing! We met with Kathe when we arrived. She is one of the most kindest people you will ever meet. When we got settled in the kids took their walkie-talkies out to "explore the trails" alone. The next morning we had the chance to help with some of the farm chores. Kathe recommended we try Sandy Knoll Park. It was a great recommendation. There is a small pond to swim in, a nice playground and a golf course. The only recommendation I would have for people visiting with kids who are NOT fans of mosquitoes, invest in the small citronella candles (they were a $1.50 at Walmart). We put 2 in the tent and it made all the world of a difference while sleeping. Needless to say we had a blast and are already planning our next trip back.

Our trip was good . . . would have been excellent if the weather hadn't been rainy and COLD! We would have toughed it out if we hadn't had a toddler with us. But the tent didn't leak a bit, and the covered porch meant we could still eat breakfast in comfort. It's a beautiful location, very peaceful and private. Owners and caretaker extremely helpful and easy to get along with. We'll definitely be back in the warmer months.

This site was even better than expected. The site was incredible! The grounds were spacious and beautiful. My toddler loved feeding the goats, sheep, and chicken and had a blast playing with the kittens. Mary, Jim, (owners) and Kathe (grounds keeper) were all very friendly and accommodating. We can’t wait to go back!
