Welcome to our piece of paradise. Our family bought “The Land” when our kids were young and it became our weekend camping, fishing, and exploring retreat. We now want to share our rolling hills, fishing ponds and country life with you. Hidden down a farm lane, our land is perfect for spending time in nature. We have well-maintained grass walking trails, two 1-2 acre spring fed, 35 ft deep, well stocked fishing ponds, kayaks, row boats, fishing dock and waders for walking in the creek. We invite you to indulge yourself in the complete quiet of the country and enjoy the serenity of nature. You are far enough away from the big city to see thousands of stars at night, but close enough to get anything you need. You are less than 20 minutes from Jim Edgar Panther Creek State Fish and Wildlife Park, 30 minutes from Emiquon National Wildlife Refuge and Dickson Indian Mounds, 40 minutes from the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and historic sites.Site 1 is a flat grass space on the hilltop overlooking the two ponds, valley, and Indian Run River outline. Guests who book the Private RV parking are nestled behind the cabin near the portable restroom, electrical outlet, and water supply. There is a 1/2 acre area for games, fire pit cooking, picnicking, and a short walk from the walking trails, fishing dock, and easy hike up to the look-out tower or down to the Indian Run RIver. Guests need to burn all trash or carry out and leave no trace.

Peaceful Spot
The land is absolutely gorgeous! Easy to find. Host is very responsive and helpful. The tent site is flat. The fire pit has a nice gravel surround with an attachable grill and nearby firewood. Potable water is available from the hose nearby, which came in very handy! They even provide a Johnny on the spot. The first pond has a small dock to fish off of. We loved paddling around the pond in the provided canoe and kayak. Our dog enjoyed swimming off of the old partially sunken dock and running as fast as she could through the property! She met a rabbit and tons of butterflies. We slept well and saw so many stars at night! We can’t wait to come back with our friends for more adventures exploring the land!

“The land” was beautiful, quiet, and peaceful. The ponds and fishing were a nice to use when camping. The, host supplied, canoe and kayaks were great to use while there. We loved how responsive the host is. She is very helpful. Having access to water, a toilet, firewood and the canoe/kayak , is why we decided to camp here and I’m so glad we did! We will definitely be back!
