We'd love to host you, your friends, and your pets on our 45 acres of woods and prairie!
More about the location:
45 acres of combined farmland, prairie reserve, and forest--Pirate Woods is the perfect location for a getaway that still has nearby access to rural community amenities. This property is located 5 minutes from I-70 and 30-45 minutes from downtown Indianapolis. You can also access Knightstown via U.S. 40.
Camp Areas:
Pirate Woods campsites: are located in an 8 acre forest. There is a communal campfire ring with stocked woodpile for your use. Nearby are a few chairs for your use. You may create a fire ring at your own campsite if a fire ban is not in effect - but please be responsible.
Sites 5 and 7 boast the best spots for hammock campers.
Fauna:
Pirate Woods is home to a variety of animals: great horned owls, deer, a mysterious grey wolf fox, chickens, pileated woodpeckers (and other varieties), finches, rose-breasted grosbeaks and more.
Activities and Water:
Feel free to walk, jog, or mountain bike the mowed paths. Bringing your own water is best. Though it's a short walk along the property to reach our back barn where there is a spigot available for your use (you may drink it from the tap, but purifying it recommended.)
Town (Knightstown):
A trip to town is only a 2 minute drive (or bike) away where you can grab Mexican or pub food at local restaurants when you don't feel like cooking over a fire. Additionally, the Blue River runs nearby and there is local access in town where you can rent kayaks.
Other Town Highlights:
1. The Hoosier Gym (from the movie Hoosiers)
2. Farmers and Artisan market every Saturday morning June-July
3. Boondocks farm frisbee golf
4. Royal Highlands Golf (we're located on Greensboro Pike, the third (grassy) drive south of the golf course.)

My brother and I brought our families and had a wonderful time. Easy to get to from Indianapolis. Great for kids. The woods were fun to explore. And the bathroom accommodation made it easy for younger kids.

We had an awesome evening on Michelle's land! We were fortunate enough to have the place to ourselves for the evening and were really about to explore and get a feel for the place. Michelle was both responsive on the app and prepared for our visit. Cannot say enough good things.
We're already making plans to come back with our extended family.

Beautiful quiet open space in the country. A great place to stay, hosts super sweet and accommodating. When you're camping and road tripping and choose to dip into cities from time to time, it's hard to find a campsite that isn't on a highway/big rv park etc. And finding this gem just outside of the city was perfect. Big moon and great open sky. Recommend!
