Camp Johnson

Welcome to Camp Johnson, a historic gem located at the MoPac railstop in Downtown Hollister, Mo. This 1922 home, steeped in Hollister history, seamlessly blends the charm of the past with modern conveniences. Once the residence of Mr. & Mrs. Johnson, a power couple who significantly contributed to Hollister's development, including the construction of Downing Street and the introduction of the Iron Mountain railway, this 2-story, 3-bedroom, 3-bath home is a testament to their legacy.
 
As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a hand-laid stone fireplace, a symbol of the home's historic charm. The winding staircase, leading to a cozy wine bar, adds a touch of modern elegance. The exterior of the property continues the uniqueness with hand-laid local rock stairwells that guide you to a patio tucked in the hillside. Here, you can enjoy the view of the railroad while feeling secluded, nestled into nature.
 
One of the home's most distinctive features is a bathroom where the natural rock cliff is exposed, complete with trickling water, creating a cavern like retreat.
 
Staying at Camp Johnson is more than just a vacation; it's an immersive journey into Hollister's rich history, a comfortable retreat with modern amenities, and a unique opportunity to create unforgettable memories. Book your stay at Camp Johnson today and step into a piece of Hollister's history. This home sleeps up to 8 guests with 2 King suites and a double Queen bedroom.
