Darryl is a fantastic host and we had so much fun camping here! The sites are perfect and we really enjoyed being able to grab some hot cocoa packets from the camp store! Would definitely like to come back!

Super nice area! Spacious and lots of camp sites to offer. Staying in the cabin was really cozy. The stove and usb charging was really nice. Wood burning to stay warm, was something new that we enjoyed.

This was our second time staying at Darryl’s property and absolutely loved it. They provide all the perfect elements for a beautiful grounding get away.

Very cute site, so private and peaceful with a beautiful setting. Plenty of dry wood available for purchase, and love the little outdoor store. Thank you for sharing your space.

It was very nice, and very scenic. The camp areas are as advertised. I drive a mini-van, and we got rained out on our final morning, and driving out was a little dicey. I also wish that we had brought extra TP, as the outhouse ran out. But otherwise, quite a good deal.

This camp site was awesome and very accommodating. My family had a blast and we will definitely be coming back. The only problem, if you want to call it a problem was that we stayed at Twisted Elm and I was unaware that the entire camp site is on a hill. So when you put something on the picnic table it will slide off and tumble down the hill. I had my one year old with us who is learning how to walk and it was impossible for him to waddle around without tumbling toward the hill so we had the stress not letting him wander around. We also had to move our bed around a bit because it felt like we were gonna roll out of bed. Now we have a large 9 person tent. I think this campsite is better for smaller tents. Don’t get me wrong, the site was awesome, the hill was just a bit much for my family and next time we will pick a different site at purple haze. Maybe fallen tower. That looked sweet. Something more level.

We really loved staying at the Tiny house (cabin). My 3 year old son didn't want to leave. This was our 1st time camping at an off grid cabin and it was a cool experience. Everything inside the cabin worked. The lights, gas stove, wood stove and the water pump. Also, 1st time using a composting toilet. It worked out well. Outside, there's a fire pit, some chairs, picnic table, gas grill and a charcoal grill. We got to meet Darryl and Linda, and they were very welcoming.

Darryl has amazing campsites! We got in after dark and couldn't make it to solitude 6 but Darryl gave us free choice out of some other sites that were not being used! Solitude 6 is a good hike and not best for a lot of equipment but wagons are provided. Toilets are compost toilets so they are as you expect, but well maintained. Spigot is very nice to have. The oat fields next to our site shimmered with platinum in the moonlight. I would recommend purple haze acres and will likely come again. My biggest regret ia not offering Darryl a beer when he stopped by our site!

We were tent camping at Fallen tower and it was an amazing and peaceful time! Everything you need is only a short walk away in terms of firewood and anything you might’ve forgotten in the shop. The stars were amazing and there were some cats that stopped by plus a chicken.

Loved solitude site 6! We were 4 friends camping, so we split the burden of climbing up the hill together. Both paths are a little wonky, but the path behind the woodshed is a little shorter and smoother, though you have to travel through Bullfrog site (it wasn’t occupied so we didn’t disturb anyone.) The water from the spiget is delicious, so we filled up our collapsible water container to have water at the site. There are vault toilets with no lights, so bring ur head lamp and wet wipes. Use the wagons with the wider wheels! No eggs for us, but Daryl was cheery and nice! Oh and just note that the trees hide the stars, so we walked out to the prairie to see them at night - incredible views

Cedar hills is a lovely hidden gem. It was so freeing to just be sunbathing naked in nature. There weren't too many people so there was enough room to space out. Felt very comfortable as 2 women campers. Dennis was great! Will definitely be frequenting next season.

Weekend Trip to Purplehaze Acres
This was our third time camping on Darryl’s land, and our second time staying at the tiny cabin at his stone ridge location. We were super impressed with the upgrades made since our last stay. It was clean, with clear instruction. Every time we stay there we drive away saying, “best stay yet!”

Tent camping at Purplehaze Acres was great! It was a relaxing retreat from the city that offered both a farm-style and woodland camping feel. We stayed at Site 3 Twisted Elm and it was nicely secluded from other sites, while still very accessible from the trail making it easy to haul gear up. The firewood for sale was a nice touch and the bathrooms were well kept. Overall a great time!
During the daytime we went to Pike Lake and hiked the Ice Age Trail to the observation tower which is worth checking out. The lake has a beach and large picnic/activity space as well which was fun. It was a little chilly but would be a great place for swimming/ water activities in the summer.

Weekend Trip to Purplehaze Acres
Another wonderful weekend at this tiny cabin! We appreciated the extra firewood already at the site and the addition of a little store for any small items you may have forgotten or need like bug spray, first aid kits, emergency ponchos, lighters, charcoal, etc etc.

Had an awesome time out there. Got to meet the owner, Dennis, which was great. The views are unreal, and there’s plenty of site options—whether you want to be up on the ridge looking out or down in the valley. Already looking forward to heading back next year.

This is our second time to cedar hills and again it was amazing. We were lucky enough to get site 20 with the swing and the beautiful view! The rains have for sure made it buggy but manageable! We had wonderful weather and we will be back again for sure it was quiet and everyone was polite and friendly
