It's a beautiful secluded quiet area away from the city and you can enjoy nature without noisy highway traffic or bright city lights.

We have a Class A and the one lane road leading to the campground and lack of signage telling us where the campground was, made the trip in very nerve wracking. Also, we felt the price was high considering the lack of water and sewer hookups.

Dog friendly. Nice creek for the kids to find fossils in. Play ground, volleyball and best of all the hillbilly hot tub. What happens in the hillbilly hot tub stays in the hillbilly hot tub. Fun time

Great facilities and very welcoming host! Definitely would go back when in the area.
This campsite is so well groomed and the hosts are amazingly responsive and helpful. We love how private the campground is and we loved creekwalking up the Little Green River. This is our second time here and we will be back soon.

Unfortunately we came in after dark and left first thing in the morning. We did take a look around before leaving and loved what we saw. This would be a great place to stop and enjoy for a few days.

Overall a nice place. But, for "primitive camping" all tent sites were butted together with very little to separate them for any privacy. Place established in 1988, and most novelty items such as swings, chairs, porta-potty, etc are very aged, cracked, and generally just run down. I paid half the price of this the previous night a few hours down the road for primitive tent camping that was more remote from other tent campers, had a bathroom and showers on the premise and was very updated site.
Finally, though warned online, the dogs next door(?) barked A LOT multiple times throughout the night.

I love this place. 2 years in a row we have enjoyed Steve's property. Nice shaded sites. If we go to Louder than life 2027 we will return. If your looking for somewhere to stay during louder than life this is a great option.

Absolutely beautiful and peaceful place to stay!!!
This camp was exactly what we were looking for! Wife and I were headed down to meet a group of friends in NC, and brought our hammocks to camp the first night. We had a large open site on the river. Popped up the hammocks, ordered the large bundle of firewood and cooked dinner over the fire. We ordered the wood online after we got there, but a nice guy brought a wagon load of it over quickly. A quiet peaceful evening, was just what the doctor ordered. We would recommend and stay here again next time we are in the area
Stopped here for a quick overnight and the site was amazing, wish we had more time and will definitely be back next time in the area to spend some solid time at such a beautiful campground! Tons of great things to do for a day.
Always a great time, beautiful spot! Steve is prompt at responding if you need something. The little petting zoo and roaming goats at time is an added touch to your camping experience! Been camping here several times now and just love it!

I have mixed feelings about the campground. First positive, it’s clean and they keep up with the portapotties. Next, the sites are nice sized for campers with slide outs. Next, they deliver a large trash can to campers so they don’t have to take it to a dumpster. It was nice and quiet. Now just observations, there is a motorcycle off to the side with plates that expired in 2019 that I thought was strange (I’m a biker). They do have a few animals to pet (pony, donkey and goats) I am an animal lover and would like to have the donkeys hoof’s trimmed because they are way to long and it shows with the way he stands/walks. The only real thing I can say is the trees need to grow about 5 more feet but that’s not really an issue because I’m sure they are newly planted.
On a positive note, it’s 20 minutes away from the renaissance festival.

This place was very cool. I had an awesome site along the river. The owner brought me more than enough firewood and even stopped by to make sure everything was good. They had a petting zoo which was a nice touch.
