Camping @ Natural Gathering Grounds
This is a nice property with lots of space btwn the camping sites. There are special touches all around like rose quartz chunks in the bathroom and solar lights around the pond. Unfortunately it rained the whole time I was there so I didn’t get a good chance to fully explore all of the property. Hopefully one day I’ll make it back this way!

Awesome Place
It was a great experience camping here. We showed up later in the afternoon but the address was easy to find. There is a camping section past some buildings on your right well marked. We pulled in and setup camp. The property is quiet and beautiful. Each spot has a picnic table and a fire ring setup. Natural drove into the camping area to check to make sure we had everything we needed. They even have firewood to purchase near the camping area. It did rain on us in the middle of the night but we still had a great time. Thank you for the hospitality.

Vintage Camper Ramble on Rose
We stayed in the vintage rv. Very clean, fun and cozy. When it rained we played pick up sticks and Yahtzee for hours. The owners also left farm fresh eggs in the fridge (unfortunately it was too cold and they froze as well as some it my produce) but still a sweet gesture! My son loved the goats and chickens that roamed the farm. Was a bit buggy, so definitely bring bug spray. We also had fun paddling around the little pond in a paddle boat and the owner took us for a little ride down the paths in her golf cart. Overall very pleasant stay!

Camping @ Natural Gathering Grounds
Wonderful campsite!
We absolutely loved camping at Natural Gathering Grounds! We wish we could have stayed another night. It was so quiet and peaceful. We were able to pick any campsite we wanted. The campsites are big and most are shaded. The grounds are very well maintained and beautiful and the bathhouse was very clean. The host Angela was so nice and gave us a tour on the golf cart. The animals are so fun. The goats ate our hamburger buns and English muffins which we thought was hilarious! Not a big deal at all-we enjoyed the laugh! Angela and her husband were so kind and went to the store and got us more buns and muffins which they did not need to do. I will be recommending Natural Gathering Grounds to friends and we will for sure be back!

Family Camping Experience!
Tent camping at Natural Gatherings was such a fantastic family experience! The hosts are so nice and hospitable. Our children ages 7, 4, and 2 completely enjoyed playing with the chickens and goats on the premises! The sites were clean and they even had wood (logs) to buy for the last minute camper. Over all, it was a great time and I’d highly recommend this location for anyone! We’ll definitely be coming back. Oh, and they have an awesome history serving in our US military.
