Best in Kentucky: Finalist
Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2023.
Once owned by a dairy farmer that had to relocate after a bad storm damaged everything. The farm was soon auctioned off into 5 tracts and eventually I purchased a vacant 10 acre tract in rolling hills of nelson county. 10 minutes from the Bourbon capital of the world. Also once voted most beautiful small town in America "Bardstown, KY."  Also the bourbon trail is within 15 min drive. Now the farm is our "Newtons Nook"

My sisters, mom, and I loved our stay here. Beautiful, private spot with all we needed. Would highly recommend.

Newton’s Nook is Nice, No Worries!
Pastoral and serene upon a vast expanse of Kentucky Bluegrass bordered by the woods on one side and a pond as the centerpiece. My first primitive campsite ever upon a verdant carpet of grass that felt good on my bare feet. It’s good firewood and so convenient. The “sort of” outhouse is serviceable and free from that odor. Dogs can run free here and mine really enjoyed it. Dustin is a great host, congenial and accommodating. I’ll come again when I’m back in the Louisville area.
