We loved this very private and roomy campsite! We heard owls, cranes, and coyotes, and we saw geese and trumpeter swans fly overhead. The stars were amazing! We also found the solar lighted bathroom with the composting toilet to be quite a luxury for boondocking.
I would highly recommend this site. My only advice…the ground is very rocky, so wear boots or good solid shoes. Enjoy!

We loved this spot. The restroom was well lit and clean. Beautiful spot with actual owls we heard at night.

Nice little getaway! I loved that it was secluded enough but you could still drive to town if need be. I like to use this app because of my fear reactive dog. She needs space from humans and dogs, and we both enjoy getting away and relaxing in nature. The neighbors did have dogs that barked through out the night and she found it very hard to settle with the barking. That was my only complaint! The weather did change on us while we were there so we did pack up and leave a little early, but I would definitely come back and give it another go in the future.

We loved our first experience taking out our little Falcon camper and we are so happy it was here. This is a private site with a lighted composting toilet area, with TP and a hand washing station 😊. It has a fire pit and an option to purchase firewood. The view of the trees is stunning, especially this time of year and we enjoyed walking around the grounds. Also there are many paved trails close by within a short drive. Joshua is kind and helpful. Thanks Joshua. We plan on returning and telling our friends and family about your little gem.🌳🐿🦌

We loved camping here, and our dogs had so much fun exploring. The tripod to cook over the fire was handy as well as being able to venmo for firewood. We plan to return!

This is the perfect spot for people who love fishing, the Hawkeyes, or have family in Iowa City. Full hook-ups and a quiet spot. Loren is easy to work with and very accommodating.

Incredible spot! Wish we had more time here. Directions via Google maps were perfect, look for the cones. Fire wood available restroom available. The site is magical, had an amazing time, my dogs loved being able to explore and relax. Area was well tended too, enjoyed finding old machinery on the lot and so many cute frogs. Some traffic during day but absolute silence in the evening. If you're looking for off grid, peace and quiet with wonderful walking trails and beautiful scape, this is the place!

My pup and I had a great stay! We spent most of the daytime on the lower part of the property in the shade, which was such a beautiful area with its own picnic table and even a fire pit. The property trails were well maintained. I got two firewood bundles, which were hefty and worth the price: you can see in the attached photo just one bundle and how much wood it supplied. Outhouse was well maintained and didn’t stink. Beautiful open sky at night and peaceful nature sounds. Loved the nearby paved biking trails and recreational areas. Would definitely visit again!

This place is amazing, I can tell you that much. It's a great spot for anyone who appreciates a bit of peace and quiet. The private atmosphere really sets it apart from other places I've been to. Our dogs loved the trails and stream down at the lower level! Would love to visit again soon!

Me and my partner had a wonderful overnight stay at Owl’s Perch. We were able to cook using the fire pit and provided, along with the suspended rack. The trails connected to the campsite are beautiful, lush, and well cared for. We had a very pleasant experience, and Joshua is a kind and accommodating host. If you’re looking for a cute, private camping spot, this is your place!

What a great little area to set up camp! Plenty of space for tents and a camper. Great for families to explore and dogs to roam. Besides the occasional car driving by we didn’t hear any other people near by so it felt really private. Hosts are great and responsive. Great spot!

Great place to camp! Easy to get to yet secluded. Joshua clearly puts in the effort to maintain this site. I didn’t get a chance to hike on the trail because rain made it too muddy for me. Looks as though the trail is well-maintained as well.

Had a great time at this spot with my fiancée. Loved the privacy. Also had a toilet and a sink to wash hands. Got the firewood bundle and he left plenty for the night. Also it’s true to its name—we heard owls! That was my favorite part
