Location was amazing and the views were so incredible!! we were lucky enough to have the entire site all to ourselves and could explore around in the morning after spending the night. The spots seemed pretty close to each other and curious what the experience would be like during peak times but we had a blast during the off season!

Setting up our camp fire in the nice, established pit.

Awesome experience. Early winter Monday night. Only one other camper around. Beautiful views. Easy access (I have front wheel drive only). Grazing cows very nearby was a unique and enjoyable experience. I would stay here again and recommend to others.

Wow… what a spot. Probably the coolest spot I’ve ever camped. I love that There aren’t designated spots, there are just random fire pits and Porta potties sprinkled around the land. You basically just pick wherever you want to camp.

We loved camping at Bill's land. The views are a spectacle, the sites are far apart and very private, and the fire rings work perfectly. The road here was also very easy. In fact, we requested an extension to our stay! We loved it!
