Weekend Trip to Ayers Creek RetreatKari was absolutely awesome, extremely hospitable, and was always available for anything we needed. She gave great recommendations, and even let us borrow her can opener! :)
The space itself was really great. Lots of room for parking, nice, large flat areas for tents (bring a tarp, though, because it is mostly gravel), chairs and picnic table, a cool little setup underneath some aspens and pines. Pop-up toilet situation was easy to work with. Really nice to have access to potable water and firewood.
The BARn was freakin' epic! It was so fun to spend a day at Lake Davis kayaking and swimming, then coming back and roasting up some dinner on the provided fire pit (so awesome!) and hanging out in the converted mini-barn. It had fun lighting, speakers, a cool bar-style island, couches, etc... Having access to the wilderness and then what felt like our own private little pub back at our campsite? Epic.
My only *heads up* would be that the site itself isn't what I would consider remote. It is super conveniently located, especially with regard to the lake, but it is also part of a larger property, so you do share a driveway with the host's house as well as her tenant's space. It's not bad by any means, but it also isn't a private campsite deep in the woods, so, if you are looking for that type of remote privacy, just keep this in mind.
I went with 4 of my friends for a little bachelor getaway and, ultimately, it rocked. Highly recommend.
