I love the views, the sunrises and sunsets, the night sky, the horses, the llamas and cows nearby. The gravel roads were not so bad. Pat is an excellent host. She has the right combination of helpfulness and giving me my privacy. A delightful experience with full hookups.

great spot for a getaway with beautiful views. Check out the state park nearby or go to pony for the day! Just bought a motorcycle and the roads surrounding the property are great for any kind of activity from walking to running mountain biking and even riding motorcycles! All the animals on the property are gorgeous and the host is very welcoming! Be prepared to either be creative with leveling your RV in order to access sewer, or just bring a sewer extension hose as there is a very nice flatter area just out of reach for our sewer hose! Utilities were in great working order and our Starlink had a clear view of the sky!
