My friends and I had a lovely, relaxing stay here! The farm is gorgeous and rustic and being right next to the horse pasture was such a treat. Watching the sun set with the horses running in the field was beautiful. The bathroom was very clean and we appreciated the very short walk to it because we got to see the little horse on the way! Our host was welcoming and helpful. We definitely plan to come back:)

Great level spots with all the hookups you need and quiet too. Study the entrance on Google Maps before you go so you know what you are looking for.

Great place to camp! The hosts were friendly and accommodating on the initial greet. They live there on the property but felt private as it's the only tent site. Would absolutely stay again.

We were able to find the campsite without much trouble (we actually used the address of the neighbor to locate the driveway more easily based on street view. We arrived and our host described where to go.
Although we had hoped to see some horses while here, there weren't any out during our stay.
I will say if many of the sites were full, I'd be concerned with turning a larger rig combo like ours to exit.
Other than that, we had a pleasant stay and would return in the future.
