We loved staying on Denise and Korys property and getting to stay in Periwinkle was absolutely fantastic. They are incredible hosts and the property is large with plenty of tree coverage for those hot days and a beautiful beach right at your toes. We had our dog Rundle out who couldn’t have been happier to sleep in the shade and swim every day. Lots to do and see in the area that’s worth checking out! We’ll be back!

We were at a tent sight at BMR and found it easy to find and a nice set up. The highway and train noises didn’t bother us, earplugs are provided but we didn’t need to use them. The bathrooms were nice and front desk was great. Loved the pantry and coffee machine. The only downside was there was mould in the shower.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such a wonderful stay at Mara Lake! We arrived late and were warmly welcomed at the gate, which instantly put us at ease. The campground was very clean and well-appointed, and we were so grateful for the hot showers and reliable WiFi after a long day of traveling. My son was absolutely over the moon to find a group of kids to swim with and enjoy the playground, it made the experience extra special for him. The atmosphere was family-friendly, safe, and fun, and we truly wished we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend this campsite for anyone passing through or looking for a great place to relax with family!

The hosts are incredibly welcoming and responsive to any requests or concerns. Periwinkle is very cute and the lake is fabulously clear and warm. Do remember that this is a 50+ year old vintage trailer so do go with the appropriate expectations as to little quirks and foibles. It was an overall charming and pleasant experience.

We had such a wonderful stay at Herman Lake Wilderness Campground! 🌿✨ Catieln is the most friendly and welcoming host, and her beautiful family made us feel right at home. The campground is so quiet and peaceful—it was exactly the getaway we needed. Our kids loved petting the sheep, picking berries, spotting butterflies, frogs, and lizards—and were thrilled to see a baby moose! We enjoye fishing at Herman Lake, and White Lake (just minutes away) was also fantastic. This is truly a beautiful place, we will definitely be coming back again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful, family-friendly escape! ❤️🐑🎣🦋

This is a beautiful and remote campsite. The hosts are really friendly and have a very cute pup! The sites are private and the toilets are very clean. There is a foot pump tap by the toilet so you can wash your hands. Site 9 has a water tap (not potable) beside it so you can easily clean your dishes. I highly recommend this site. We had a great time exploring the property, picking berries, and looking at the stars at night. Thanks so much!
