Weekend Trip to Terriland

We loved staying here! Beautiful grounds with room for the kids to play. Terri and her family were so friendly and accommodating. We got in very late and she still came out to help us get settled and gave us great recommendations for what to do the next day. A great place to stop and stay a couple days!

Catherine is a very Fine Host. And her place is accommodating and roomy. She also has a water hose that's long enough to reach your Trailer. Which was nice. Although not level, experienced RV'ers,(unlike me) can remedy that. It's close to the street, which doesn't bother me a lot.(LA Traffic) She has a Beautiful Place. And was very close to where I had something to do. Thank You.

Our stay was wonderful. The orchard was filled with fresh fruit , that was absolutely delicious.. Terri and her husband were awesome . We even got to enjoy a great bottle of wine that Terri offered up. The property was very well kept. Even though the tent site was close to the county road we still felt safe and comfortable. We even got a helpful hand from the resident dog to set up our tent. Highly recommend Terri-land . Look forward to staying there again.

I was met by Erin upon arrival. She was friendly and a great host (same for communication prior to arrival). The location is set back in a lot behind the home. Its safe and secure with power and water. Nearby is a great firepit area (we didn't use as it was 95 degrees) and a gentle sheep named Tilly. Fun, quirky and comfortable! Really enjoyed our stay!

We discovered this spot last summer and it was a no-brainer to schedule again for this summer's road trip. The entire family is friendly and welcoming. The property has lots of charm. If your children can't live without wi-fi (like mine) then you are covered. My children were even enticed away from their screens long enough to enjoy the glorious view of the starry night sky. For a great diner breakfast experience, check out Joe Momma's, which is not too far away in Eagle, ID.

Loved my brief stay at the Sweet Pepper Ranch! It was a scorcher of a day but after a quick dip in the pool and shower, the tent was perfect and cozy. When I woke up in the morning, there was fresh coffee and all the fixings waiting for me on the porch - who could ask for more?! Thank you so much for the hospitality and kindness, Alayne!

Beautiful home & property. How was very welcoming and caring. The night was going to be cold and we have a tent and some sleeping bags but the host encouraged us to stay in her green house for warmth. That was a heartfelt gesture, we appreciated it so much. Would definitely recommend! Enough space for multiple sights and comfort.

Parking is in a dirt backyard next to a cornfield, which I thought was neat. It looks like they were in the process of planting new trees to add shade. There is a large common grass area with a fire pit that can be shared with other campers. They have a bathroom in a shed. That may sound off-putting, but it was very clean, nice, and unique!! Also, without hook-ups, it was convenient to have a bathroom on site. We were in the area to visit friends so we didn't spend a lot of time at the site during the day. It was quiet and peaceful at night. Kimberly made sure to call and check in on us after we arrived. She was super friendly.

Private drive for easy pull through RV parking.
