WOW! Expectations be darned!!
WOW!! Thank you, thank you, thank you. What an amazing camping trip.
John, Trina & Friends were SO WONDERFUL, SO HELPFUL, SO DELIGHTFUL through our stay.
Pepper’s site was lovely, large, had water nearby and plenty of tree cover though we ended up camping at another site on the campground, able to move at our request per their availability. John & Trina sent us over to their Home campsite in a gorgeous grove with a creek meandering through the trees… when we arrived at Pepper’s we were concerned about building our campfire near the levy where there were dry grasses this time of year - we’d recently witnessed a mountainside go up in flames in Nevada after some bozo started a highway car fire - thought extra precaution was reasonable. Very grateful for the flexibility they offered us, it really made our trip!
We had the campground to ourselves for nearly a week after a recent music fest was hosted there, got to romp around with Peanut and DOG, ate fresh chicken eggs (thank you!) and paddled our hearts out night and day. Water was warm and refreshing, frogs on the shore were awesome, Willis the cow is adorable and friendly, bathrooms and showers were convenient and stocked with paper products and hand soap. No light pollution for great stargazing. Lots of space in the sites, smaller campground=less packed, sites have reasonable privacy, plenty of tree cover. Egrets, bald eagles, buzzards and more!
Looking forward to returning for one of their music events on the campground.
