Cabin
Don't come here
Here is the Maple Farm Hip Camp add:
Enjoy the comforts of home in nature at some pitches — including real toilets, showers, and kitchen
Hot water . There is a very basic shower in the cabin. It works for a rinse off, but nothing fancy
Cancellation policy: Flexible
2WD accessible
Here is what we found on our trip:
There was no hot water. I phoned the host who was next door, instead of coming over she gave directions to turn the valve on at the back of the tub for the water. I found the valve but the hot valve was on the right cold side, opposite to where it should have been. after discovering this turning it on the water went from cold to a little less cold. After trying a few times the water still didn't come hot. I played with the dial on the heater and when I tried to get a refund for the second night she said the water was my fault because I had switched the dial. She didn't acknowledge there wasn't hot water anywhere in the cabin. As above the add says HOT WATER. I couldn't spend 3 days and 2 nights in January without hot water. There was no cabin binder or written instructions for anything. and besides, if she knew we were coming wouldn't she want to turn the plumbing valve on at the back of the tub?
The pull out couch mattress was thin, springs felt through and was brown with no sheets
On app confirmed for 2 adults. Host provided towels and sheets for 1 and agued we had only booked for 1
With this and lot's more wrong, mostly a negligent, uncaring host.

Site C
A shower or water faucet would have been great. Great location though

Site B
Conny and her daughter are very welcoming and happy to share stories of their not always easy farm life. Yes the access road is rather long especially if you’re bike packing but it’s rewarded by very quiet stay in wilderness and you get to see a wild boar!!!

Site B
Secluded and simple
Pro: Campsite was nestled in nature, private and fern forest. I liked the site
Cons: It was a long gravel road to access. There wasn't much to do on site and the entry was messy with a car top at the gate and we didn't see a lake and the bathroom had a destroyed piece of toilet paper (it was otherwise clean). There was the sound of a generator in the evening.

Site C
Private camping with lots to explor
We LOVED all the farm animals and loved the big private camp sites. We were in camp site C but walked around and looked at all them and every single one is big and private, but camp site C is probably the best if you need a really big site.

Site C
Absolutely loved camping at Conny’s farm! We were at both site B and C. The sites were so beautiful, and Conny’s property was so much fun to explore and nothing beats waking up with a cup of coffee and walking down to visit the horses, donkey and one of a kind goat Pepe! Thank you so much Conny we’re for sure visiting again :)
