Weekend Trip to Daisy Jane in the meadow

We loved the cozy adorable camper and the huge pavilion. Bring your camping cooking gear and you never have to leave! The trails on their property are gorgeous and mossy. Our dog loved them! Having hot water, a real bed and electricity made it a camping trip we could both enjoy for our anniversary. Thank you!!

My girlfriend and I stayed at Duneberry and we had an absolutely magical time. As disc golfers it was paradise, and as campers it was quiet with just the perfect combination of peaceful ambiance. We couldn’t have had more accommodating and wonderful hosts, 10/10 would stay again!!!

Weekend Trip to Healing Meadow Trails Wooded Acres

They did a nice job! I felt comfortable and safe, and they offered lots of little amenities. The swallows making the place safe from mosquitos was awesome. The frig to chill my beer was better.
