Built on a hill top…I wanted to give families a safe place to enjoy nature. This campsite is on a hillside because it’s the top of our 6 acres, yet allows the best winter time views of the valley, beautiful Fall leaves. The extra amenities for a primitive site are a trade for the hillside. Personal one single campsite for privacy. Perfect spot to travel Madison and Newton Counties, Buffalo River and fabulous hikes. Water features are a short drive away.

Great spot away from the river, especially if you are interested in a quieter camping experience. It is a little bit of a drive to get there, but, well worth it. Amenities are wonderful and the host is very responsive and generous. Nearby Sweden Falls was a lovely treat.

Stephanie was an excellent host, responding to us when we had questions, bringing us fresh eggs, and even coming to our rescue when our truck battery died, but still gave us the space we needed to unplug and enjoy our solitude.

Camping near Ponca

Would stay again 👍🏻. Site was clean, directions were easy to follow, and Stephanie responded promptly when we asked if they had firewood available. Location was easy enough to get to Ponca/Boxley area where we were hiking. The incline up to the site is a doozy, but I was in a 4WD jeep so no problems climbing it. This was my first experience using Hipcamp, and Stephanie’s land was a good introduction into it. 🏕️🥾🤙🏼

This area was experiencing a heat wave and the host texted me to offer me a camp site at a neighbor's campground with no extra cost to us so we would have access to electricity and could have a fan. She didn't have to do this and could have never made this offer. Although we haven't stayed at this site, we will come back and give it a try. Thank you for your flexibility.

I enjoyed the campsite and all the amenities! Very intentional and thoughtful with how it was set up! Keep in mind you have to park at the bottom of a hill, and carry your camping equipment up the hill to set up and carry back down to the car. Also the bathroom is downhill, and the hill is very very steep.

Very lovely and spacious camp site. Wooden platform to sit the tent on. Chairs, table, campfire area, and a charcoal grill. Stephanie was awesome!! We got fresh eggs from her chickens for breakfast! Very private area on a dirt road. No one else in site except a few passing cars. Awesome experience!
