Persimmon Creek Campground

Owners, Karen and Tony live on site, in a cabin they salvaged.  In previous lives, Karen was a schoolteacher, and Tony was a grader.  Together they embarked on a new life in a place they could live and work with each other and their animals.  As campers, they disliked the trend toward miniscule sites and parking lots.  Having grown up camping with their families, they wanted to return to the "old fashioned" ideal of camping:  truly being outdoors and in touch with nature. 

Our Business

Persimmon Creek Campground officially opened on June 26, 2009.  The first stage is completed with several full hook-ups, a dump station and lots of tent sites.  Tony and Karen are doing all the work themselves, including building all the picnic tables from their own sawmill lumber!  The intention is to grow slowly, up to a certain point, and never to grow too large.  Tony and Karen want to always be able to handle the business themselves, know who their customers are, and treat them like family.

Stage 2 is completed with a  shower house built by Tony and Karen.
