Stories from the community

1 night at Hidden Crick Farms

We had a comfortable and peaceful night. We liked the mowed trail around the fields.

3 nights at Privette Pointe

Great place to stay. Simple. Cozy. Beautiful. I would recommend it for sure.

1 night at Turtle Dove Escape

Nice road and wooded area to enjoy. Our dog was in heaven walking on the road and exploring the pine woods on the site. Allison met us at the site and showed us the options for parking. Our Airstream was a little too large to back right into the woods but a smaller rig would fit. Being on the gravel road was nice, private and quiet!

Weekend Trip to Hidden Crick Farms

Christopher is an easy going, friendly host who had everything organized for my stay. It was very cold the night I camped and Christopher was good enough to check in to make sure I was doing all right and even brought me some wood to burn. I highly recommend this host!

Weekend Trip to Hidden Crick Farms

I loved car camping on Christopher’s land! It was very peaceful and far enough into the wilderness to get a beautiful view of the stars. We got in late and Christopher was very accommodating in showing us to the site. We were only here for a short overnight stay, but we would definitely stay here again!

Weekend Trip to Heaven's Gate Artistry

I thoroughly enjoyed tent camping here and would highly recommend it to anybody even if you’re just passing through. Eileen was what made this a great experience. She went out of her way to be incredibly accommodating. Two thumbs up!
