We had a wonderful stay on James’s property. James was a great host. Met us upon arrival and made sure we had what we needed. Since we didn’t need hookups, he let us choose our own spot, which made the experience even better as we were able to camp closer to the water. The land is beautiful, wooded and surrounded by water and a pond on site. It’s a really unique setting: you feel completely tucked away in the woods, yet the moment you leave the property you’re in a neighborhood and only a short drive from downtown and all the essentials. We’d absolutely recommend this spot, especially for anyone who enjoys boondocking!

We had the most amazing time at this beautiful property! From the moment we arrived, our host went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and taken care of. Their friendliness and genuine hospitality truly set this place apart.
The land itself is stunning—peaceful, spacious, and perfectly maintained. Our dogs were in heaven! They had all the freedom they needed to run, explore, and get plenty of exercise, which made the trip even more enjoyable for us.
This stay genuinely made our vacation unforgettable. We left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already excited to come back. Highly, highly recommend! 🌟

Very relaxing secluded site very much like state or provincial campgrounds next to the river delta. Took an early morning walk around the field watching the morning mist move over the morning dew-covered grass.
Full hookups for sewer, water, and 50/30/20 amp electrical.
Within a gated area next to a large field with an eclectic assemblage of farm machinery and boats.
Left very relaxed.

James is a wonderful host. He’s very responsive and accommodating. The spot is super quiet and peaceful, hidden away from the noise of the city. It’s in a large bird sanctuary so there were beautiful sounds of wildlife to listen to all night.
