Muddy Myst was the perfect get away from the city. It gave such a comforting, safe and woodsy feeling. It was also very warm during a cold night! I would suggest this lovely place to anyone needing a cozy spot to relax!

Very private . Nicely kept tiny home. Had everything we needed. Bring sheets if sleeping bag and own towels. But I didn’t find that to be an issue. Great place for dogs as well.

Fantastic property! We rented the tree cabin but the tent sites also looked great. All the amenities you could ask for while still being rustic and private. We visited for our annual fall leaf peeping trip, but we fully intend to come back in the summer--we are excited to take advantage of the cute little pond for swimming and kayaking. Would highly recommend!!

Weekend Trip to Muddy Myst

I booked the tree cabin to surprise my boyfriend with a one-night-getaway for his birthday, and we absolutely loved our time here. Liam did an incredible job with communicating important info via Hipcamp messaging, and he created a beautiful, serene atmosphere at Muddy Myst that made our stay wonderful. Everything was clean, private, and beautiful. We really appreciated the bathroom & common area amenities. We had an amazing stay and absolutely will come back and recommend to a friend. Our dog loved the adventure, too!

Muddy Myst is a wonderful place! I brought my 4 year old son for his first “camping” trip and we had a blast! The scenery is even more beautiful than the pictures. Thanks to Liam and his family for their hospitality! Will definitely stay again!

Muddy Myst is the perfect relaxing getaway! The treehouse was cozy and inviting. Even with all the rain at night, we slept peacefully with the windows open. The magnetic screen door was a nice addition to keep the critters out. There are clearly marked trails around the campsites and “Hank’s Hangout” is well stocked with complimentary coffee, tea, filtered hot/cold water and a nicely kept bathroom with a shower next door. Our dog loved the beds outside and inside the treehouse. Thanks again for the wonderful hospitality, we cannot wait to make a trip back!

Great property with great host. The amenities here are perfect for someone who wants to camp but have access to water, a bathroom, electricity, precut firewood, etc. We were so happy here. Big pond and lots of land to let your pups roam. 10/10

This was our first stay with Hipcamp and Lawrence and Carolee's tiny home experience for us truly amazing not just for us but the dogs loved it equally as much! They are the epitome of hosts and I highly recommend this wonderful place to anyone lucky enough to stumble across it like we did. The grounds are very well maintained and the amenities that they put into this place are topshelf! Thank you for having us! And we hope to see you again!!

The Tiny Home is just as it is described. Absolutely beautiful and stocked very well for anything you may need during your stay. It is obvious that previous guests have left items to be enjoyed by others, as did I. The woods and location are fantastic. Outdoor Ramada was such a surprise, thoughtfully built and equipped as well with campfire pit, chairs, picnic table, electrical outlets and a wonderful roofed space. We will be back.

We absolutely loved it! My husband’s from UT. Camping is his thing, not mine…but this was awesome. Well stocked camp site. Everything you need is there….and clean with a white duvet (my personal fav). Clean bathrooms, showers, a beach, bike trail, walking trails, waterfalls nearby…truly a nice weekend adventure. We’ll come again!

Weekend Trip to Tiny Home on the Hill

Me and my family absolutely loved this tiny home!! Very cozy and clean with a beautiful view, it was everything we needed. Perfectly secluded but close enough to a store if you need one. They stocked the house up with things I didn’t think to bring which was so nice. Great place for kids if they love to be outdoors! My 4 year old had a blast here and can’t wait to come back!

The entire place was the perfect getaway! We loved the spacing of the three locations. Our tree house was adorable, and had a very comfortable bed. The pond was unbelievable- clean, clear, and stocked with toys- kayaks, paddle boat, and more. We will definitely recommend it, and be back!
