Lovely spot and very nice host. Our family enjoyed the large fire circle and the wonderful creek full of crawdads.

4 nights at Big East Fork Valley

This was a great spot for my 4 night stay. The view is outstanding! The space is very private but also easily accessible. Host was easy to contact and very flexible. I would definitely stay again.

Weekend Trip to Dreamline Trails & Camping

Just camped here with our family of five, three boys - this place was great! Plenty of space to run, throw football, climb around on trees & have a great time. Small stream that provided a lovely ambiance, and plenty of provided firewood. The trails were a bit overgrown, but still fun to ride. Would definitely recommend this spot, especially if you have a large group.
