Very private and lots of space. Site 1 had a several mature trees to set up camp under, a hammock, picnic table, 2 chairs and a fire ring as well as direct water access. We could hear cows mooing at night from a nearby farm and lots and lots of birds! The road is close and you can hear it but it wasn’t that frequently traveled. We had a great stay!

I absolutely loved tent camping on Jim's land! Although it stormed the 1st night and was super windy all weekend, the spot was still perfect! Jim is super friendly and helpful! I used one of the kayaks to spend time on the lake, which was really great! Beautiful area to watch the sunset. Close to some really cool places! I felt right at home, as Jim is very welcoming to his land. I would definitely camp here again!

We had the absolute best weekend tent camping here! Our dogs didn’t want to come home and neither did I! So lush and green, lots of convenient firewood/water/ a clean bathroom! Fish jumping in the creek and lots of birds and a huge heron that frequented the creek! Steve was a 10/10 host who made us feel very comfortable and took such good care of this spot. I almost didn’t want to leave a review so it would be our secret 😉

What a little slice of heaven! We could not have been happier with this location! A quainte and quiet creek-side spot tucked away, while still close to civilization and just a short drive to Lake Cochrane. Steve was so friendly and takes excellent care of this spot and even provided free fire wood/water/clean bathroom with a shower which we greatly appreciated! We will definitely be back!
We experienced a couple of wood ticks but special care and tick collars for the dogs all but solved that issue.

My two girls (9 and 15), 2 dogs, and I stayed at Jim’s place. First of all, Jim is the best host we’ve ever had. He gave us fresh eggs and asparagus. We were able to switch campsites because it was windier and colder than expected. He had electricity and brought us a mini fridge. The last night was going to get down to 37! Jim brought us a mini heater that was a life saver.
The location is gorgeous! We had views of the lake and you have sandy areas to get to the water. It is quiet and relaxing. It is also very safe as a woman with kiddos. You can’t ask for anything else.
Thank you Jim! We will be back!

I did a two night tent camping getaway here, and what a place to take a retreat. The sunset is beautiful, there are kayaks to use, perch to catch, and the nights are quiet.
