The camper I stayed in was very clean and comfortable. Clair gave fabulous instructions for everything I could possibly need to know. Then the good part….spending time around the animals, the stargazing, and the quiet (other than the expected moo, quack, baa or cockadoodledoo) were all wonderful!

Great place to stop on the way to Florida. Kids had lots of fun fishing. The tent was cosy and kept us dry in the rain. The mattresses were comfy, bathrooms clean. Totally recommend.

We had the most magical time at Sweetwater Lake! Olivia was an incredible host; thoughtful, responsive, and truly went above and beyond. The site was stocked with everything you could possibly need for a cozy, comfortable stay. Just bring your own food and you’re set! You can feel the love and intention that’s been poured into this place. It’s peaceful, private, and the perfect spot to unplug, recharge, and reconnect. Highly recommend for a serene getaway.

1 night at Sweetwater Lake Campground

I had a great one-night stay at Sweetwater. The site and the bathroom were clean and well-maintained. There were other campers in RVs nearby, but everyone was quiet. I booked the glamping tent site, but I only intended on using my own hammock in the nearby trees. When the host realized I wasn't actually using the tent, she generously gave me a refund! She was very easy to coordinate with. If I'm in the area again, I would definitely come back to stay here.

This was a perfect place to stop for the night! Quiet, safe, and everything taken care of. She even had a fire going for me when I arrived! I would love to go back when I have more time to spend on the lake.

2 nights at Camp at The Farm - Outside Inn

We had a lovely adventure at Outside Inn camp. The onsite trailer gave us all the comforts of a hotel, but with the outdoorsy adventure of a campground. The little camper had all of the basics and was enough to accommodate all 5 of us quite comfortably. The farm animals and fresh eggs were a treat and my elementary schooler couldn't get enough time outdoors!
