This was a perfect spot to stop and stay the night on my travels! The location is merely 10ish min off the main highway, which made it so convenient so stop and sleep for the night in a safe, private area that felt comfortable for my dog and I. Will def be my new go-to halfway stop. Thanks Kara!!!

Great spot!!! It's in the shade and easy to access!! We will stay again when we are in the area, if it's available. Too bad there isn't a 30 amp plug, but we just used our generator to run our AC. We would pay more for that option.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Hay Farm. Shane was extremely accommodating and friendly!
The sites are on a large rock/gravel piece of land next to their hay farm. The sites were very large and flat. There are fishing ponds just up the road too.
The space was easy to find and close enough to town that it wasn’t inconvenient but far enough away to be peaceful and quiet. We would definitely stay here again and recommend to others looking for a good experience at a good price.

The spot was amazing. Nice and flat and well manicured. Beautiful trees and people. Roger's hospitality was second to none. He made the stay awesome and helped out with whatever we needed. He even brought down kayaks so our party could have fun on the river. The bathrooms were clean and air conditioned for a nice reprieve from the sun. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. 5 Stars.
