What’s not to love about camping just a short walk from an incredible brewery? Turtleback Ridge Farm is a fantastic host for the Kentucky Open Road Race Series, and I had the privilege of camping there the night before a race. Although the weather was dreary and the rain relentless, the property still offered a peaceful, spacious spot to pitch a tent and rest up undisturbed. I didn’t get to fully appreciate the farm’s beauty this time, but I’m already looking forward to a return visit. Highly recommend to anyone in search of a laid-back, convenient campsite in the area!
We tent camped one night on Keegans' property. Everyone was very friendly and accommodating, they immediately made us feel welcome at the brewery (which had good beers) and allowed us to pick a camping spot that suited our needs best. The site was quiet, we were the only ones there that night so the only noises were the frogs, owls and insects. There are farm dogs that wander about, and while a couple approached our setup, none bothered us or our dogs. I would definitely stay here again if we were passing through the area!
Keegan's place was just what we needed. Wide open space and quiet during the week. The taproom was open Friday and Saturday night for conversation and companionship. There are trails to walk and dark skies to view the stars. Loved everything about this place.
Amazing Farmstead! This was our first experience with Hip Camp and it definitely did not disappoint. Not only was the property beautiful and the perfect place to set up camp, the brewery had some of the best beers we’ve had in a while! 10/10 would recommend. Keegan, Kevin, and Jen were awesome hosts, we'll be back again!
