Nestled in the heart of farm country, you'll find a gem hidden near the Raccoon River. Find yourself by getting lost in nature! Our property includes over 40 acres of timber with hiking trails throughout. The main property located near by, includes our vineyard and farm. Come meet some of the farm critters, use the modern bathroom/showers, charge devices and relax at the pond. We have several group camp sites as well as remote hike in options (contact us for more info on these!). Learn more about this land: Choose to stay in one of our private tent sites, with only views of nature surrounding you. The listed sites here are accessible by car, but if remote/hike in is more your style, we have those, too - just ask! Or try out our tree house camp experience: a platform built into the trees with provided 8 person tent secured to the base (contact us to reserve/book the tree house. Rental is $45/night). We also have a large group site. Firewood is provided on site - please do not bring in your own. The campgrounds are a short jaunt from our vineyard. At the vineyard is our event center with lodging. Campers are welcome to use the modern facilities at the event center. Guests are welcome to enjoy the pond (kayaks provided, catch & release fishing), 9 hole disc golf course and play area. There are acres of woodlands to explore with ample opportunity for wildlife watching. We are a short drive to a boat launch river access. Firewood and non potable water is provided for campers.

Site 5 - Secluded, peaceful, wooded sites
Large, beautiful, private
We had a lovely time camping here for three nights. The host was super laidback and promptly met us upon arrival. She let us know the best way to get in touch is to text her directly. We asked to upgrade to the Tree House site since the weather was a little unpredictable. It worked out perfectly with the dogs because it has 2 gates to keep the pups in the deck area. To our surprise, this campsite includes a large meadow that is equipped with a picnic table, fire pit and firewood. It was like our own little oasis. Just wonderful. The common space is in a nice modern building where we could do dishes, use the bathroom (shower included), refill water jugs, charge phones, use WiFi, etc. There were even a couple of family friendly games and if there is severe weather, there’s plenty of space to set up your sleeping bags and camp out there. There is a large dumpster on site for dumping trash. You can drive around behind the barn, past the beautiful vineyard to find a magical pond with tons of lily pads and several picnic tables, etc to relax. The property is well maintained and a great camping option in the area. If you like rye, pick up a bottle at the local distillery in Carroll. There is a brewery in town too.

We loved camping Nicole’s land. She is so friendly and kind. My friends and dog had a great time there! She drove us by the camping spot and brought dry wood. The camping spot is very nice (tree house). We had free access to restrooms and shower and everything was clean. Looking forward to camp there again.

Very welcoming and easy going host. Sites are very quiet and secluded, apart from the occasional owl or coyote howl in the distance.

Loved everything about the site and Nicole. Great place to "get away" and let the kids explore. It was really convenient that firewood was provided. We're looking forward to returning, thanks Nicole!
