We felt very comfortable and safe! The site was very level and spacious, with electric and water. Morning shade provided a nice break from the sun. There's a pretty lake and a dock to fish from, although we were in the area to visit friends so didn't spend time there, but the night before we left there were torrential downpours and we were so glad to be in a place that was high and no chance of flooding!

We absolutely love Rick and Helen and their beautiful property! We booked last minute because another site didn’t work out for us and we’re so glad we did! The site we stayed in was level and very spacious with plenty of room for our tow car. The water pressure was perfect and they had 50 amp power. There were lots of beautiful places to walk and explore with our two dogs and they have ducks in the pond. We saw geese and turtles as well. It’s quiet and peaceful in the evening. Rick and Helen were welcoming and wonderful hosts. The barn, covered bridge and beautiful pond set the scene for the perfect camping weekend. We will definitely be back!

We were so thankful that we found a spot at Red Farm. We had been on the road for 8 hours and really needed to land for the night. Monte was super nice and told us if we ended up coming back his way and the spots were taken, he would find a spot for us. Easy to find and had great services attached for a good price.
