  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    Nestled amidst lush woods and a serene pond, this campsite offers a peaceful escape with the added charm of friendly hosts, Missie and Daniel. Most campers appreciate the welcoming atmosphere, with several enjoying the chance to swim and fish in the pond, although some mention it can feel a bit swampy. The proximity to the hosts' house is noted, which might not suit those seeking total seclusion, but the hosts' hospitality often makes up for it. While the campsite provides amenities like firewood and a fire pit, a few reviews suggest improvements could be made to the outhouse facilities.

    The hosts were very nice and answered all of our questions including greeting us when we got there. The property was very pretty with a lot of woods. We swam in the water it was nice, it wasn’t dirty but a little swampy so maybe not for everyone- but we had fun. The place where we put our tent (and the water) is relatively close to their house. This was no problem for us as we weren’t bothered by them(not that we would have been, again hosts were very pleasant) but might not be ideal for someone looking to camp completely away from others. Really cool town not far from camp site.

    It was okay

    Camp Wood and Lake is a single tent site location. Due to heavy rains the week before the host offered the bed and breakfast space. We should have accepted since the bullfrogs were quite loud most of the night. Loved talking with the Photographer host.

    Great site next to a frog pond. Very lush and remote feeling. Camped in a tent and got rained on all night, but still had a great stay. Friendly host and a really cool spot!
