I stayed at this Hipcamp site as my second stop heading out west.
Easy Access & Clear Communication
The hosts provided detailed instructions and amenities information before my arrival, which made everything seamless. The site was easy to locate - no wandering around in the dark trying to figure out where to park - and I was able to pull in smoothly for the night.
Comfortable Amenities
The indoor community space was a real highlight. It’s one thing to have a place to park and sleep, but having access to a welcoming indoor area made the experience feel more like a retreat than just a parking spot. It was clean, well-maintained, and had everything needed for a comfortable stay.
Perfect for Road Trippers
This site is ideal for travelers finding their road trip groove or needing a safe, peaceful place to rest between destinations. Thoughtful hosts, clear communication, and quality facilities make this a solid choice.
Would definitely stay again if my travels bring me back through this area. Thank you to the hosts for creating such a welcoming space!

Staff was friendly. They drive you to your campsite so you don’t get lost. Pretty spot.
Real easy to get to, but you can hear the traffic from the highway. So pros near the highway-con you can hear the traffic 😜
I would go back.

Nice comfortable spot for our trip across the country! It was great having the indoor space to get a good shower and do a little work before getting back on the road. Had a little trouble with the direction from hipcamp but when we used the actual address, we got there just fine. Arrived in the dark and it was easy enough for our small rig to pull in and turn around to back up, but a bigger rig should just back in from the road.

We were a same day registration and were only there for an overnight, but we had a nice experience at Aaron and Megan’s property. Aaron met us there and gave us the information about the common areas, even though we did not use them, it was very nice to have available. The RV spot is on asphalt and flat which is nice. It is a back-in but there is plenty of room. It rained the majority of the time so we did not explore much other than to take the dogs for a walk in the neighborhood. The area is quiet and we had a peaceful night’s rest. I would recommend staying here if you are looking for something in the area.

Exactly as pictured and described. Plenty of space on the driveway, which is off a quiet street. Slept great!

We only spent one night as a stopover on our way to Colorado. We got their after the store hours but after a text someone was there quickly to personally escort us to our spot and make sure we knew where everything was and all was good. Very personable. The grounds were very clean and well maintained. We got there too late to check out the mini-golf, but it looked cute. Good free internet service. We would make a point of staying here again if we were in the area.

It was great to have laundry and an hot shower after weeks of traveling and camping in a tiny clamshell. The hosts are wonderful. The space was clean, parking in the driveway was easy. It was quiet and had a lovely wooded area for tent camping.

Aaron & Megan's place was great to stay at for the final night of a 1000 mile trip. We especially appreciated a place to take a warm shower after being on the road all day!
