Had a really good time, the views were awesome really nice place to look at the stars at night, sky is full of stars. Had a blast fishing the little pond, with tons of action. Also really enjoyed how private and how far away from the city it felt. Neal was a good guy, real nice and helpful.

What a gem! The owner clearly put a lot of thought and effort into this site, and we could not have asked for a better host. Trails to walk, super clean and fully-stocked outhouse, fire pits with more wood around than you could ever need, and enough wildlife to fill a bingo card. We saw deer as we pulled in, and over the course of a weekend spotted a toad, a muskrat, garter snakes, butterflies, bats, and woodpeckers. While it's absolutely woodsy, the property is tucked right around the corner from Stoney Creek beach and some of the best eateries we've seen in a while and just up the road from the store in case you need any last-minute supplies. Overall 10/10 experience, we will be back!

This was a great place to camp for the night. It's just a grassy area but a good enough distance from the tiny house that you're not bothering each other.

This was a hidden gem with a pond full of fun little fish. Not a full upnorth experience but the stars at night might say otherwise. It was fun, relaxing and a great experience with Hipcamp using it for the first time. My kids had a great time away from the city life and catching a ton of fire flies at night. There's enough woods and land for everyone to spread out. Neal and Melissa are very helpful and quick to respond with any questions. Overall I highly recommend it for anyone looking to stay away from the city life.

Neal was a wonderful host with excellent communication throughout. Even directed us to a local dump station. The land is beautiful and we had a great time. Pretty quiet there too. Lots of wildflowers to look at, trails in the woods to walk, and sooo many different dragonflies - which were fun to watch. Fishing in the pond was nice too. Also saw a red squirrel, deer, and various birds. Very nice to reconnect with nature, as we are from the city!

This site already has lots of good reviews that all proved true, so I’ll just add one more thing from my perspective. I went camping here as a solo female camper, which means I’m extra vigilant about my safety. I loved the fact that Michael meets all campers upon arrival, has them sign paperwork, and communicates very quickly. It made me feel much more at ease during my stay.
