Weekend Trip to The BlueJays Nest

I STRONGLY recommend this stunningly beautiful farm, and with Bernice blessing us with sharing all of the land. There's a beach adjacent to the creek which is refreshing to dip into. And the beach created this past June, which enhances the ALREADY amazing experience you (or anyone for that matter). The entire beach bonfire effect at night with the gorgeous moon 🌙 being so deep red.... ? Stunningly gorgeous!!!! There is also an amaaaaazing HUGGGGGE water slide 🛝 which proves to make it doubling the entire experiences there! I'm actually mind blow 🤯 at the MANY attractions, such great people that have become regulars ( some every other wknd). I personally took a backwoods site ( which they offer such a huge variety of camping experiences). My site being "THE RAVENS NEST ", Bernice names all sites after birds 🐦 I was the only backwoods tent ⛺️ camper, but she allowed me to customize my site, as backwoods tent campers are few, i wish i had my phone or tablet with me, but it seems to defeat the purpose.. Right? There's a "Blue Jays Nest" which I was tp take, and that site it right at the beach ⛱️ and behind the site immediately the creek is there. Bernice, I cannot thank you enough for what became JUST what I needed, shut down electric devices, and simply enjoy the land, wildlife. People. I give a 💯 for this country experience. Please look inside the door, there is a Terracotta planter on the bakers rack and one down on the beach.
