We absolutely loved our time here! The atmosphere was so serene and calm, offering a clear, beautiful view of the night sky for stargazing. A wonderfully friendly German Shepherd came out to welcome us, which made us feel right at home. The host was fantastic—very respectful, communicative, and helpful. It's a fantastic spot for a getaway!

This turned out to be the perfect campground to keep a couple of young kids entertained all day. The pool is outstanding, the staff is wonderful, and there are great open spaces and play structures etc. One thing, the campground are very close together and the bathroom is a good distance away, so keep that in mind when choosing your spot.

This was such an amazing find. We ended up upgrading to the glamping spot as it was very rainy the night before, and it was perfect. The drive-in was not bad, even after the rain; if you have a four-wheel drive, it’s just a bit muddy. There was a dishwashing area and outhouse nearby, which was very clean. The trapper tent had a very inclusive camp kitchen set up, which we put to good use. The views were beautiful, and it was so nice to watch the sunset on the dock. Caitlin was so kind and very welcoming. Overall, this spot really made our trip. Honestly, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Site #1 was very private, and I really enjoyed my stay at Peaceful Vibes Camping. The camp hosts were extremely welcoming and kind. Access to the river made this trip special. It is definitely off-grid and a bit remote, so if you are looking for peace and quiet, this is the place for you.

Site 10 is not for the weak to access, but its doable in a car as well as long as its not after the rain. But the host said we can take any spot we like, cos it was not busy. Now about the camping spot, this is a great place to be with the stars, Lake nearby, tidy shower and the outhouse is clean. The campsite is away from civilization, which is amazing! The lake is swimmable, host was good and super friendly! Plus the drive from the highway was really scenic. Would of never taken that road if not the campsite, you simply drive right on the coast of the huge lake with the fancy cottages right next to it.

Me and my partner both agreed that this campsite was one of the prettiest we'd stopped at thus far. There were lots of bugs, but that was to be expected given the beautiful lake a few meters from the campsite. The hosts were very welcoming, and helped us get to the site, as we'd gotten lost on the way. Off the bat, they were friendly and made sure we had everything we needed to spend the night comfortably. The campsite itself was beautiful and spacious, with little to no light pollution, and you could see the constellations clearly. The bathrooms were very clean, and the running water was a huge help for hand and dish washing. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we cant wait to visit again :)

Beautiful spot here at Herman Lake. We had to cut our trip short so didn’t get to spend as much time as we wanted. It’s off-grid and quiet, so that needs to be the vibe you are looking for. The f you are an active person/family/couple, I’m not sure there is enough to occupy you more than a day or two. But if you are looking for a quiet place to just “be”…this is it. I hope to be back one day!

What a pleasure it was to camp at Herman Lake. We were in site #3 and loved how private it felt. Caitlin and her family were such welcoming and generous hosts, it’s clear they take pride in sharing their beautiful home and all it has to offer! We saw numerous wild animals we don’t usually get to see (beavers, moose, frogs, shrews, and turtles to name a few!) and spent hours paddling on the serene lake. We look forward to coming back again someday. ♥️ Thank you for sharing your wonderful space with us and making us feel like family.

10/10! Probably the most serene and peaceful place we’ve ever been. The lake is straight out of a painting and it’s perfect for swimming. Everything is very well kept, the outdoor shower is great. We were very charmed by the sheep, bees, gardens, and their dog Eena! Caitlin and her family were very welcoming and we are very grateful to them for giving us a taste of the dream life they are living. Can’t recommend this place more.
