Magical, just magical! And on top of that Matthew and Amanda are kind and very responsive. If you want a private staycation to connect with nature, this is it. I recommend 1000%!

Private and peaceful spot right at the edge of the river. Traveled solo with a dog and felt safe and secluded. You can hear the rapids all night long. Matthew met us at the gate to drive us in since we were arriving after dark! Will come back again! Only ~12 minutes from I-40.

Absolutely beautiful, very private spot. If you need a break from the typical campground with a row of RVs lined up this is the spot. Bring everything you need with you since there isn't much nearby. The internet was spotty and eventually would send a text but nothing you can count on. I got lost finding it and had to go back to where I had internet to read the message. Which was sent the day I arrive but I was driving all day so didn't realize there was a message with directions. It would be helpful to post a picture of the gate which said "David's Place" which made me think I was in the wrong spot since the posting says Matthew & Amanda. It was a beautiful spot and a pleasure to stay!

We loved camping at Melson Farms! Beautiful and spacious campsite with a great view of Little Piney Creek. The campsite was clean and well maintained. Quick booking and great communication with Matthew and Amanda.

This campsite was a dream location and site!!
I’ve stayed at Hipcamps all across the country, and this one was by far my favorite. It’s a little hidden gem—peaceful, private, and beautifully maintained. Like other reviewers mentioned, I only stayed one night while passing through on a cross-country trip, and I truly wish I could have stayed longer. The site felt incredibly safe and serene, with thoughtful touches that made it clear the host really cares. Communication from the hosts was also fantastic—responsive, kind, and helpful throughout.
The site was perfect for my dog, too, who was able to safely explore and relax, which made the stay even more special.
Huge thanks to The Melsons for sharing this amazing space—if you’re considering booking, do it. You won’t be disappointed.
