Kenton is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

This small 25-acre ranch is just in the early stages of development. We are repairing fences and watering. I just added solar power and several electrical upgrades for RV's. The property has a 2000 feet of grass runway with an airplane hangar, so you could fly it if you have a STOHL airplane. The irrigation pond/pond yard area is currently available for camping. Many wineries, brewies and outdoor activities available in the area. Children can help feed or water the pigs and perhaps the chickens. Be aware though when piglets are around at times they are very small and are amazing escaped artists so do not keep food out unless you want to try and pet one they are friendly. We are more than happy to help suggest wineries and brewies in the area or enjoy the bar area we have! We offer several campsites as well as an in-ground greenhouse as listings. Guests love staying with us: "The pond at Willow Barn Ranch was picturesque. Show us around the property. It's very quiet and peaceful, and you can tell you take good care of your land. Wide open spaces." Please be aware that we do not allow parking on grass without explicit permission which is always handled on site. Vehicles will most likely not be permitted on the grass itself with rare exceptions.

Site 12 Grass/pond

There weren't even cows

Granted, it was the only site big enough for our group of nine people with only a month's notice. But the weekend quickly became an exercise in managing everyone's disappointment at the disparity between the listing/photos and the site itself. The listing would have you believe the site is right by the pond where you can feel free to take a dip whenever you'd like while enjoying the shade of the trees. Not so. The pond is part of the *wedding venue*, which we were not informed was, of course, booked for the same Saturday night as us. We were asked--AFTER driving three hours to get there--not to use the "bathroom" between 1pm and 6pm. Aside from that patently insane request, the only bathroom for all campers AND the wedding guests (who were vocally displeased with our presence) was one toilet and a port-a-potty, and the wedding didn't end until 11pm. This meant our night under the stars with friends we never get to see because we're all too spread out was drowned out by wedding music and capped off by a groom's announcements that will frankly haunt us for eternity. The groom isn't the venue's fault, but we felt very deceived, and it was obviously too late to cancel and book some other campground by the time we got there and realized that the campsite was ACTUALLY far past the pond (which we never got to use), past several overgrown trailers, and past the farm animals. We were even looking forward to there being cows, as in the listing. Dear reader, there weren't even cows.

Back Acreage Grass area Site 13

Unfortunately not what we expected

A group of six of us booked a last-minute weekend getaway, but the experience was disappointing, and the photos didn't accurately represent the property. Upon arrival, we were instructed to find a "ranch hand," but no one was available. After waiting 30 minutes, multiple texts, and phone calls, the host said they’d arrive in 15 minutes. Instead, a man living on the property appeared and guided us through an awkward setup involving trailers. We were told to "choose any spot on the lawn" as the Hipcamp was new and lacked designated spaces. This was confusing considering the amount of reviews making us believe it wasn’t a new place. We were informed before the trip that a wedding would be held in the barn with noise until 10 pm, which didn’t bother us. However, we weren’t aware that the communal areas, lawn, and restroom would be off-limits, causing significant inconvenience. The day before the wedding, a planner rudely yelled at us for walking near the lawn and falsely accused us of not cleaning up after our dogs. We were not informed that the entire property would be inaccessible during the event. On Saturday, we returned from wine tasting at 3 pm to find the main gate closed, forcing us to park away from our campsite, which had some of our gear. The campsites were exposed with no shade or clear setup instructions. While this spot might work for a quick stopover, it’s not ideal for a group getaway. Fortunately, we made the best of it. The pigs were cute!

Appreciate the hospitality and the campsite for the night. We were greeted at the entrance and lead to our plot in the far field(highly recommend the far field plots). We got rain, lightning, wind stormed out on our second night with a freak storm but if in the area again, would consider camping there again! Thanks!

Site 6 Beach Shade camp site

We had the best time staying here. We got in late but the hosts were flexible and accommodating. We had two kids with us, ages 2 and 5, and both had so much fun playing on the grass field, running around the pond, and helping feed the animals. The bathrooms were also spotless which was a plus! Would highly recommend, this was definitely a highlight of our roadtrip!
