Loved this Hipcamp and will definitely return. Hosts were awesome and the views amazing. Was camping in the rooftop tent across the Midwest and had work issue pop up. Given the temperatures and knowing I would be working late into the night, I booked the bigger cabin to work in. The cabin itself was very warm and cozy and the views to wake up to in the morning were definitely worth it. In the -2 degree weather my tires lost some air overnight and before I left, the hosts were kind enough to use there compressor to put some air back into while we visited over some coffee. Really appreciated this Hipcamp and will definitely be back.

I only stay here for about 8 hours just to have somewhere to sleep during my road trip. I’ll definitely be booking with them again on future trips. A little out of the way but I didn’t mind for the quiet stay. I felt more comfortable staying here than a traditional camp site(which I’m sure I would have been fine). Being at this spot made me feel more comfortable for my first time car camping alone. The spot and area around was clean and well maintained with decent space around the site. Thank you for the short stay. Definitely beats paying for an over priced hotel room.
