Nested along the Pecatonica River, Pink River Ranch boasts some lovely pink sunsets, quiet nights, chorus frogs chirping and some of the creature comforts you expect. Our ranch is home to sheep, cattle, horses, chickens, ducks, cats and dogs. We're animal lovers and we hope you are too! We have a shared restroom for our guests. This space is jointly used between the guests who stay in our vintage airstream, camping wagon as well as our two tent sites. It features a shower, tub and relief facilities. We also have an outdoor shower if you're feeling adventurous! Potable water is available on-site but must be hauled into your campsite. Campsites are furnished with a small camp grill, fire ring and picnic table. All tent sites are accessible by foot only. We have a parking lot for you to keep your vehicle and wagons for use to get items to your site. Each site is no further than a one minute walk, two minutes if you're hauling a wagon. We sell firewood and charcoal for your grilling adventures (cash or Venmo only). We also sell lamb meat raised on our ranch if you'd like a fully immersive grilling experience. You can purchase meat prior to your stay and we'll have it ready for you. Place your order at www.pinkriverranch.com and select 'hospitality guest' at checkout. We have small fishing poles available for your use, we just ask you use them on our property and do not remove them for fishing in other local spots. Worms for bait can be purchased in town. We also have two cruising bikes available to use if you'd like to make the 5 minute bike ride to our local restaurants and attractions. We look forward to welcoming you to our slice of heaven on earth!

Peaceful on the Pecatonica

I so enjoyed the couple nights I spent at my very peaceful, private spot along the Pecatonica River at Brittany’s place. If you’re an animal lover this place will make you smile for sure! Dogs, cats, a litter of kittens while I was there, sheep, chickens, cows, horses and a duck for good measure! The site I had is right on the river’s edge surrounded by tall grasses and wild flowers with fantastic views of the gorgeous twilight and dark night sky. There’s no shade, however, which was fine as I happily left before the sun got too intense to explore nearby towns and nature during the day and appreciated settling back in here in the late afternoon/evening. It’s not a full car camping site per se in that my car, like the bathrooms, were up on the main part of the property which is about a 5min walk. That proved not to be much of an issue as they were happy to help me transport my gear back and forth on a 4 wheeler… a fun little addition to the experience for this city girl! It’s close to the tiny town and you can hear noise from cars flying down the country road not too far in the distance, so it’s not entirely remote but still kind of feels like it is. Fantastic experience overall! Can’t wait to see how this place evolves if I’m lucky enough to return.

Island in the grass

The host is friendly, helpful and has welcoming dogs. Bathroom is nice and the outdoor heated shower is pleasant. The tent campsite is like an island in a meadow of tall grasses and wildflowers alongside a small slow moving river. You share the location with bunnies, toads, a plethora of songbirds and hummingbirds. It’s very quiet and the tall grass provides a lot of seclusion. The campsite is a three minute hike from the road through a mowed grass path that can be wet with morning dew. It is an additional two minute walk to the bathroom, shower and parking area. As the site is in a meadow, there is no shade and mosquitos are prevalent. If you are planning an extended mid-summer stay, consider bringing a pop-up canopy for shade that also has mosquito netting. Fishing poles may be fun as the site is on the river.

Our stay at Brittany’s was lovely! It was nice and secluded with a spot for fishing just steps away. The bathroom was a short walk and very clean!

New and worth it.

We had the pleasure of being the 1st people to stay at the camp site. It is well secluded right next to the Pecatonica river. They were very helpful in helping us get to the site. By foot it is about 5 to 6 minute walk to the parking spots, and well equipped bathroom/ shower. They do have a nice walking path through the field. Unfortunately, the weather was not on our side, and we ended up leaving early. But, we will be back. Brittany's place is nice and they are just starting out, and we'll worth it to give them a shot.
