Our third visit to Blackthorn and we love it more every time. Camping areas are spread out amongst the woods, and it’s really lovely in cool fall weather! We had a very windy weekend, but our site was nicely blocked from it, so we could just enjoy the sounds from the blowing trees. Great visit!

1 night at Blackthorn Retreat
Dave’s land was wonderful. There’s lots of cool trails to explore that are well maintained. Our little corner was full of wildlife and right by the river. I can tell Dave puts alot of time and care into his space, and we are so grateful we got to explore it. Dave was a great host and I would recommend this spot to anyone!!

My daughter and I stayed this weekend for a last minute little get away and it was perfect. The cabin pods are great for a better night's sleep but also just the right size to encourage still being outdoors most of the time. We explored the trails, the creek, played at the playground, and even pet some kittens that lived on the property. Dave was friendly, more than accommodating and things were in top condition. We will definitely be back!

Fantastic spot with a lot of character. Dave is a superb host and you can tell he really cares about guests having a great stay. I stayed at Camp Ash and love how tucked away it feels while still being close to amenities. I’ll definitely be back. Side note: if you are on the fence an about ordering firewood, just do it - was super cheap for a generous stack that kept my fire going for hours.

Weekend Trip to Blackthorn Retreat
We had a wonderful weekend and the host was very friendly! The weather showed a chance of rain during our stay and he offered to switch our site to a larger, more rainproof tent. Would recommend for a nice weekend getaway. :)

Weekend Trip to Blackthorn Retreat
This was our second stay at Blackthorn, and somehow it was even more magical than the first. Tucked deep in the woods, the canvas tent feels like your own little hideaway — quiet, private, and surrounded by nature. Last time we came, there was snow on the ground; this time everything was lush and green. It was beautiful in a whole new way.
We hiked around the property, relaxed by the fire under the stars, and just enjoyed the stillness you don’t often find. The setup is simple but cozy and thoughtful, and the lanterns at dusk made it feel straight out of a storybook.
Dave, the host, is incredibly kind and welcoming. He’s created something really special out here. If you're looking to unplug and slow down, this place is the definition of a peaceful retreat. We can’t wait to come back again.

Awesome place to stay! By far my personal favorite place I have camped. I recommend purchasing firewood there as it’s delivered right to your camp making it worth every penny and then some! Can’t say enough good things about the host Dave. He will make sure you have everything you need and find a way to accommodate you.

We absolutely loved our stay at Blackthorn Retreat! This place is a hidden paradise. The campsites are beautifully spaced out, offering the kind of privacy and peaceful seclusion that’s so rare to find. You truly feel immersed in nature without ever feeling crowded.
From hiking trails to stunning views of Tuttle Creek, and even an adult playground that adds such a fun, whimsical touch — this retreat has everything you could possibly hope for during a quiet weekend getaway. It strikes the perfect balance between rustic charm and thoughtful comfort.
And let’s talk about Dave — what an incredible host! He’s warm, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to making your stay unforgettable. Whether it’s tips on exploring the land or just making sure you’re comfortable, he goes above and beyond.
We left feeling refreshed, inspired, and already counting down the days until we return. Can’t recommend this magical spot highly enough!

We tent camped here and it was great. The swing site was quiet and secluded. Plenty of trees to break the wind and provide privacy. The site has a fire ring and nice picnic table, there is a porta potty a short walk away. You will need to walk your gear to the site but it's a very short walk, no problem unless you bring too much stuff. We would stay here again. The host Dave is really friendly.
