Learn more about this land: We have five campsites in 135 acres of acres of forest and ranch land in our working cattle and sheep ranch.  Located in a serene valley in the Ozark Highlands, the Ranch has Sheep, Scottish Highland Cattle, Chickens, Ducks and Great Pyrenees livestock guard dogs (only in the sheep pastures - and they are friendly).  If you want to meet our animals and see the farm we are happy to show you around! This is a unique site located in the Ozark Highlands. Only 45 minutes from Cape Girardeau (a small river town on the Mississippi), and 45 minutes from the Arcadia Valley including Taum Sauk mountain (the highest point in Missouri), Elephant Rocks, the Johnston Shutins, and other beautiful areas in the highlands.  The farm is five minutes from Marble Hill, which is home to the Bollinger County Natural History museum which highlights the only dinosaur bones found in Missouri. The bones were found at a farm in Glennallen (a few minutes from our farm) as well as a great barbeque (Jay’s Restaurant) and a good catfish restaurant (Jers Restaurant). On the way to our farm, feel free to stop at the 1,700 foot deep artesian well to get a cool, refreshing jug of natural artesian well water – the water is free, but you have to bring your own containers!  We are two and a half hours southwest of St. Louis, and two and half hours northwest of Memphis.

They were great. The dinner was amazing and in the morning we went on a tour of the farm. Ed was so nice and knowledgeable. Would definitely stay again.

We loved Ed’s farm! My kids spent every second they could with all of the animals and Ed was a terrific host. We would absolutely stay here again any time.

Stay and play with highland cattle
Ed is a great host and his farm store is open on Friday afternoons and Saturday mornings. We got to sample fresh sheep milk, sheep cheese, and a variety of homemade jams and jellies. We ended up buying 3 types of jam (the lemon blueberry is amazing) and 3 types of sheep milk ice cream. Ed farms over 100 acres and has plenty of places where you can park your rig. I ended up staying in the driveway for an easy exit as I was only staying for one night. We loved feeding the sheep and feeding the highland cattle.

I went for the eclipse and it could have been the most beautiful day I’ve ever seen. The hosts were really friendly and they had an amazing farm. We even had sheep, milk ice cream. Delicious!

We visited for the eclipse, and had a great time! The site itself wasn’t the most scenic place I've ever camped (there was some debris from a past tornado) but it was easy to get to in a 2wd car, had great star-gazing and plenty of flat space to set up a tent, and was right across the road from the main part of the farm. We loved visiting the animals (especially helping to feed the lambs!) and the hosts were so thoughtful and welcoming. The property was very peaceful, but was also very easy to get to. We also enjoyed looking around the farm store—check it out if you have the chance!

One of a kind camping experience
This spot is a campsite and an unforgettable experience! The hosts are welcoming and friendly. They answered our many questions about their animals and farm and generously gave us permission to watch the eclipse anywhere on their land. Petting and holding the animals was fun- even for our 17 yo!! Highly recommend this spot!!! It is absolutely beautiful
