Weekend Trip to Covenant View Camp and Retreat
The yurt had a small blow up mattress, which was a plus because it wasn’t listed in the description (at least to my memory). The land was absolutely beautiful, and he took the time to make sure we got to our yurt safely. Made my friend and I feel incredibly safe as two young women traveling alone together. We would definitely stay here again.

We loved staying on Robby’s land. He was friendly, and met us at the gate to give us some directions and details about the campsite. The campsite had 6 spots, and most of the were concentrated on one side of the field, so you may be close to others if you choose on of those. We had no one around us, and aside from the occasional train passing by, it was very peaceful. We had great views of the night sky and saw a few shooting stars while we were out. Plenty of space, good access to a bathroom. We had to walk out a bit to get some firewood, but that wasn’t a difficult endeavor. We all had a great time and would stay here in the future.

My dog and I had a perfect last second long weekend getaway. The property was easy to get to, close to so many awesome hiking trails, and was beautiful. The host, Robby, communicated well and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. He brought us enough firewood to last the entire trip and offered multiple options in case the weather got too cold while there. I felt very safe as a solo female traveler. Highly recommend anywhere on his property and will hopefully be back sooner than later!

A charming little cabin on a beautiful property! I stayed here with my three dogs, and they loved having the space to roam freely. The cabin was cozy and comfortable, and the modern bathroom was a nice touch. Both the main room and the bathroom have their own window unit. Keith was wonderful to chat with, a friendly and welcoming host.

Nice and secluded area aside from the neighbors house which wasn't a problem at all. There were some nice kids riding dirtbikes and fourwheelers and I love to see kids out having fun outside instead of sitting inside on electronics. We would definitely stay here again!

I had a great experience staying on Robby's land. I arrived late so it was dark and he made the process of getting out to the area and set up super easy. It was just me and my dog and I felt very safe and taken care of the whole time. He drove out to where I was going to be and was flexible with where I was able to set up. The second night he brought me firewood. The set up of the whole property was really great. There's walking trails, he mentioned an alpaca farm not too far away, there's bathrooms and potable water in some areas. I found the yurts super cool and there's "floating beds" set up at some of the sites in the woods, as well as larger tents. I will definitely be back again with my friends!

I had another great day on Robby’s property! This time I stayed at the area called Whispering Pines. Very peaceful and quiet. Nice trails to walk and explore. I saw lots of wildlife. A red fox was just over the hill from me. I watched for about five minutes as he walked along this little ridge. Also saw a red tail hawk and an owl! This particular area has hammocks, but not the traditional hammocks that you would think of. It’s more of a strong elastic, stiff mesh…that is connected to three trees in a triangle configuration. They hold a lot of weight, and almost feel like trampoline, but are extremely comfortable! I sat out there for hours, either watching wildlife or just relaxing. His property is an amazing place to go to. Both he and his wife are extremely accommodating hosts, and I appreciate that so much! I am trying to sort out when my next trip there will be. One of the cool things about this trip was… there was rain forecast for the morning that I left, and it being my birthday, Robby was thoughtful enough to let me stay at one of the tents that he already has set up for guests in case they did not want to bring their own…at no additional charge! He said it was because it was my birthday and because, storms were forecast to come through that morning but…all I had to do is put my stuff in the car, and not worry about taking down a wet tent and wet gear and putting it away! Thank y’all so much for your hospitality and I will see y’all very very soon!

Robby was a great host. We got to camp privately with a great view. We saw a family of deer in the evening and our Cooper loves sniffing in hayfields!
As an added bonus, Robby stopped by for a chat and shared with us so much local historical information. Knowing about the history made the stay that much more enjoyable.

This campground is special. Robby and Tina are such kind souls that made sure we had a comfortable stay. We had such great conversations with Robby, and he is an amazing story teller. Staying in the whispering pines was the best decision we could have made. First showing up to the campground, we thought it's not a typical location for our style of camping, but after a few nights we realized this is just what we needed. I felt a glow to my soul staying here. I would not pass up this place to choose your next campout, Robby and Tina will make sure you enjoy your stay.

My kiddo (12), and I had so much fun camping here! Robby was an amazing host! He provided air mattresses that he even inflated for us! The renet was in perfect condition, and very clean! It sits right on the edge of the woods, and we went to sleep listening to the frogs, and woke up to the sounds of the birds! The place is absolutely beautiful, and very well maintained! The view of the mountain is fantastic, but it wasn't quite as beautiful as the night sky full of stars! 💜
