Camp Fernweh feels like your own personal Scout Camp, perched uphill amidst a mix of hardwoods and junipers! In the spirit of Swedish "Lagom" we have created the "just right balance" for a camping adventure that has ease without taking away the adventure.  If the season’s right, you'll find pockets of wild black raspberries and gooseberries waiting to be discovered. Take to winding trails that span our 5 acres, inviting leisurely exploration or spirited adventures. We currently have one 13' canvas tent.  Despite being conveniently close to your car, our campsites exude a sense of privacy and seclusion. Our property is 5 acres so your walk won't be too far to your camp, but you may want to consider the uphill and rocky trails to your campsite when packing.   Being good to Mother Earth is at the heart of what we do. We prioritize sustainability with a newly constructed outhouse featuring a composting toilet, ensuring your comfort while respecting the environment.  This Autumn you'll find that we are working on glade restoration throughout our property by thinning out eastern red cedar and native plantings! Our inspiration for Camp Fernweh is the "sleep-away scout camps" we never got to attend. Workshops, campfire book chats and simple camping are what we do best! Check out our website to see if we have an event going on during your stay. Camp Fernweh, just 15 minutes north of Springfield off Hwy 13, offers easy access to outdoor adventures! Within 5-10 minutes, you'll find Ozark Greenways for cycling and walking, Dirt 66 mountain biking, Sac River mountain biking, and hiking spots in conservation areas. Don't miss the nearby Frisco Highline Trail in Willard, MO, along with convenient grocers. Plus, Fantastic Caverns and Crystal Cave are just minutes away for added exploration!We call this site, Moonshadow. It is located a short walk up a gentle incline from your car in an Ozarks woodland. Your campsite is sheltered among shagbark hickories and the delightful scent of cedars. You will have privacy, the night sky and the rustling of the breeze and a symphony of frogs, peepers, owls and insects to lull you to sleep. We're consistently told by our campers that the site is more private than they thought it'd be! PROVIDED AT THIS SITE: a 13' canvas bell tent, 1 cot and 1 queen bed with memory foam mattress. A metal fire pit with log stump seating. A primitive table. A Coleman 2-burner camp stove with propane. Metal roasting sticks, 4 place setting enamelware plates, bowls, mugs. Large enamelware coffee percolator and 3 gallons of potable water for drinking, cooking and washing is provided at site. A newly constructed outhouse/compost toilet is provided down the trail. Solar string lights and 2 battery operated lanterns. A hatchet to split firewood--only downed wood may be collected. RECOMMENDED ITEMS TO BRING: Bedding/sleeping bag/pillow. Camp Chairs, Specialty cookware, Flashlight/headlamp, Food, Protection against ticks and mosquitos (spray, tweezers, etc) *You should come prepared for ticks and mosquitos.

This place is amazing. It is so cozy feeling and comfortable. It was my first mommy and son solo trip and it was amazing! My son is 3 and he loved walking along the trails they built and the camp ground is so amazing

Uphill woodland canvas tent

A slice of heaven! Gorgeous site that feels very private. I went with my two elementary school age kiddos and it was so nice to have dishes, water, beds and tents already set up and ready. We loved it!

Uphill woodland canvas tent

Best mix of glamping and primitive

I completely enjoyed my stay at Camp Fernweh! It provided to absolutely luxuries: a bed and a composting toilet. For an aging camper, it was absolutely perfect. I got the opportunity to cook over the campfire, but rest comfortably in a bed (For which my body gloried in). I usually hate hate camping when there’s any rain. But the big bell tent was dry and cozy. I was able to relax while listening to raindrops pattering on the tent. It was a beautiful spot, and my hosts were accommodating and respectful of my privacy.
