Escape the hustle and bustle and embrace the serenity of our picturesque 50-acre farm. Each of our three campsites offers a private and stunning natural setting. We believe in making nature accessible and enjoyable for all, so our sites are designed to be affordable and simple. Firewood and Essentials Forget the hassle and expense of firewood—we've got you covered. Each site comes with a supply of firewood. The wood we supply can sometimes be tough to get started. We recommend you bring fire starters or a small amount of kindling to get things started. Primitive but Beautiful Our campsites are rustic and primitive, perfect for those who love the great outdoors. You’ll experience nature in its purest form, with the beauty of the landscape and the presence of local wildlife, including insects. It’s all part of the charm of outdoor living. Trash Disposal We are committed to preserving the beauty of our land. Please pack out all trash to keep our sites clean and beautiful for the next guests. Trash can be disposed of in the dumpster near the greenhouses as you exit. Ticks and Safety As with any natural setting, ticks are present. We have been working at eradicating ticks at the camps sites by mowing and using nontoxic DE dust around sites. We recommend bringing insect repellent and checking for ticks regularly to ensure a safe and enjoyable stay. Farm Fresh Goods Don’t forget to pick up some of our delicious mushrooms and farm-fresh eggs on your way in. They’re a perfect addition to your campfire meals. (Limited Supply. Reach out before your stay.) Booking Information To keep things simple and secure, all bookings must be made through the Hipcamp app. We do not accept cash or in-person reservations. If you’d like to extend your stay, please use the app to make the necessary arrangements. We look forward to welcoming you to Prayer Mountain. Safe and happy travels!

Secluded Glen on Prayer Mountain

We loved tent camping on Sarah's land. It was well marked and easy to find when we got there, and even had firewood there for us to use. Out area was well mowed and clean. It was easy access from the highway, while still being quiet country. We would stay here again if we were passing through the area!

XXL Camp on Prayer Mountain Farms

What a perfect spot! Plenty of space to camp and feel at peace. The diatomaceous earth/ lime mixture was a nice added feature. I did not see one tick the entire time. Really appreciated the firewood that was available. Directions were clear and the site just as described. Will definitely be back!

Needed a break

The spot was very private and the property was very well maintained and fun to explore. My wife and I both needed a break from everything and this spot definitely helped us recharge. We will visit again.

Field & Forest on Prayer Mountain

Would definitely recommend!

This site was exactly what we were looking for, for tent camping with our kids!!! It was quiet and even when another group was at one of their other sites we never heard or saw them. We had rain storms every day and the host were super kind and messaged us to make sure we were good and the site was dry enough and even offered to let us move to another larger site higher up at no extra cost if we wanted to. (We opted to stay put as it was just normal rain wet and not puddles, flooding or anything.) They provided fire wood and tick control. (We only saw 3 during our 4 night stay but again thunderstorms so lots of water to wash away tick prevention) so I found that super reasonable. When it wasn't raining at night the view of the stars was absolutely stunning! The host were perfect. We got a few messages to make sure we knew how to get to the site, how to contact them if needed and a quick check in after the second day of rain ad stated earlier but otherwise didn't bother us at all. It was very peaceful and private. 10/10!!!

Amazing Place

This campsite is all it is advertised to be and so much more! Well maintained pasture trails, great firewood, and excellent secluded spot! Peace and quiet with a few roosters cows and goats added their songs to those of birds and crickets
