Unfortunately, this was our worst camping experience and we would not recommend this Hipcamp. There was no signage identifying the property or camping area and no directions on arrival (pictured) We had to drive through the actual housing area, which was very run-down, with derelict-looking caravans and buildings. It did not feel like a welcoming or clearly established camping property.
We also felt uncomfortable and fearful when greeted on arrival. This was compounded by the surroundings and lack of clear information.
There was no barrel for the fire pit or option to hire to provide one despite the very cold temperatures. Overnight, we heard cars constantly, music around 2–3 a.m., and what we could only assume were gunshots in the morning. We did not feel safe. My children asked to leave out of fear. Our young children did wonder and when asked not too were stopped from leaving our area. We were extremely respectful to campers despite a review less favourable We were in bed before 8:30 p.m., up after 6 a.m., used the bins provided, cleaned the fire pit back to the dirt, and left not one piece of rubbish or scrap behind. Our children accidentally knocked out the only other camper's electricity while dogs roam unleashed!! When Brianna asked us to stop that we did so immediately and did not allow them up there. Overall, the lack of signage, poor presentation, noise and safety concerns made this an unpleasant experience. Save yourself the trouble — go to Misty Mountain instead.
