We were only here overnight, but it was great. We peddle boated in the morning before leaving, and the hosts dog swam in the pond with us while doing that. My dogs were able to run around off leash which was nice.

After a very long drive this was exactly what my family needed. Anything you can think of was provided. Warm water, a bathroom, potable water, microwave, kerig, TV and air conditioning. We were greeted by the owners and they even offered us eggs. We only stayed one night, wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Our 19ft camper and 21 ft truck fit with ease. Easy in and out.

This campsite is on a quiet, beautiful, very well kept property. It is located away from the highway, but only minutes away from Columbia, Missouri. Amanda, the host, was friendly and very accommodating. The site was level and pet friendly. We will definitely use this campsite again.
