Camping @ the Horse Farm

13 sites · RVs, Tents80 acres · Derby, KS

After living in the country I know how peaceful it can be. So being so close to the city and having this space that is secluded and peaceful it seemed only fair to share it with someone who is interested in the same thing. When you drive onto the property you will take the first left and follow the grave towards the pond then take a right, drive past the garden, past the fire pit and toward the trees. From there you can pick your spot to spend sometime enjoying the great outdoors.
