Rock Wren is absolutely beautiful! The tent feels luxurious with lots of personal touches to help guests feel comfortable. The night we spent was really cold, and the hosts provided extra blankets. We were super cozy. Would love to come back!

This spot was easy to get to and instructions were spot on. Communication was good. If you are looking for something more remote this isn’t your place, but I was on a cross country trip home and it was a great place to crash.

Dwight is super nice, responsive, and accommodating! Super hard working guy, and fun to talk to. The sites aren’t exactly what I was expecting, but they are in good working order, other than a 50amp wiring problem that I let Dwight know about. The 30 amp and 120V worked great! A little close together, and the long-term stayers are a little on the rougher side, but everything was quiet at night while I was there on a weekday. They seemed nice and kept to themselves, just are a little rough around the edges. You will have to share a water spigot (using a Y-connector), which works just fine… but my spigot did not have a Y piece. The spigot was already in use by my neighbor, and so I had to fill up on my way out at the site nearest the end. Dwight said there was supposed to be one there, and all the other spigots did have one. Just check it before you park it :) neither of these power and water uh-oh’s were an immediate issue for me since I run off of my tank 100% of the time and can use any power source. Your mileage may vary. Dwight seemed eager and ready to address and fix either issue immediately if needed. These are pull through sites - just figure out which indirection you want to pull in from. There is a little dirt path that goes around the backside you can pull around and/or through. He’s out there working hard to keep improving the place as time, money, and energy allow. Have a visit and be open minded :)

This was a great place for a quick overnight as we roadtripped through the Twin Falls area. The offering of a bathroom and water was really nice. The space was flat for a tent. We enjoyed playing with one of the cats, who was very friendly. The goats were fun, and quiet at night. For directions, using the address via copy/past was correct in Google Maps but for some reason the loaded link through Hip Camp took as a way that ended at a different farm (could have been user error on our part!)

This was a great stop for the night. Close to the highway, in the middle of town, but also quiet and peaceful. We lucked out and had the place to ourselves. Our dog had the run of the place. 30 amp power and water worked with no problems.
