Lazy Sy Acres

Farm life unfolds at Lazy Sy Acres, where owner Michael provides electric hookups on a large gravel lot that he levels for easier RV setup. The private campground sits on elevated ground accessed via muddy rural roads, with a guest house bathroom available when not occupied. Michael has converted portions of this retired farm into natural grasslands through government programs, planting rows of cedars, plums, chokecherry and pear trees to attract pheasants and deer.

Campers can walk the property line with the owner and his three dogs, observing ongoing battles with invasive wormwood and seasonal flooding challenges that create temporary lakes. The old barn houses farm cats, while horses graze nearby hay. Glenham sits right on the Missouri River with restaurants and stores, plus several State Recreation Areas for campsites near Glenham. Indian Creek Recreation Area offers a different setting for those preferring developed facilities.

Relaxing farm stay

Driving down muddy, rural roads brought up thoughts of this year’s extra snow and rain totals. It’s nice to immerse yourself in the results to open viewpoints.

Michael met me and walked me over to the camp area- after letting his 3 dogs greet me. He has a large gravel lot with an electric hookup. He spent time leveling it off so set up was a breeze. Nobody was staying in the guest house so we were able to use a bathroom that reminds me of a fancy hotel.

Looking around you find yourself surrounded by farm life. An old barn houses a group of cats. Hay is in this one for their horses to add to their diet. The land goes forever and life slows down.

Michael walked over with his dogs and invited me to walk the property line. This ended up being a couple hours of education and conversation. Michael has worked with government programs to make portions of this retired farm natural grasslands. He planted rows of cedars, plums, chokecherry and pear to attract pheasants- deer appreciate it too. He showed me his endless battle with wormwood crowding out the native species. Water formed a lake where there never is one and almost flooded out their neighbor. Lazy Sy is elevated but they are still fighting the water off this year. My dog found companionship with the farm dogs and we felt welcome and right at home.

Besides walking around the farm, we stopped in town right on the Missouri River. There are a number of restaurants and stores as well as a few State Recreation Areas to explore.

Our stay was very comfortable and easy. Welcomed into another lifestyle, conversation bridged the gap quickly. You will love this simple slowdown of life.
