This is the 2nd time we have stayed there. Again they treated us like family and with kindness and always helpful if we needed anything. I would highly recommend staying here if you are camping or in a camper anywhere around Bruce and water valley. It is a very pretty piece of property with lots of places to walk on trails or ride and 2 nice lakes you can fish. It is a great place to get away and relax for a couple of days.

As a family we have been camping in our RV for about 4 years now and I personally have been camping all my life. This trip was one of the most memorable to date! Mrs. Anita is so responsive to messages and Mr. Lynn’s attention to detail and thoughtfulness are unmatched! The property upon entering is horse stables and rolling hills leading to a shaded campground with full hookup sites situated around a larger than life bonfire pit with rock seating. Each site has ample space and its own firepit. We were graciously given ample firewood, a map and even full access to a 4x4 UTV to explore the property! The rest of the property is hundreds of acres with miles of well marked trails for riding or hiking. There are two lakes with the larger of the two having an assortment of boats. There is also a primitive camp area on the big lake. Wildlife is in abundance! Deer, fox, herons, eagles and more are seen while at night the coyotes sing you to sleep! Mr. Lynn check on us every morning! We loved it so much we booked an extra day and have already started planning our return! We drank coffee in the cool morning air, fished the day away and enjoyed hot cocoa and s’mores around the fire at night!They are in the process of building a structure that will have bath/laundry and bunkhouse as well as a rec room! Whether passing through or staying for an extended period this place checks all the boxes plus some! Thank you Mrs. Anita and Mr. Lynn for an amazing experience and we will be back soon!!!

This was our most memorable trip yet! We have been RVing since 2022 and have stayed at countless Rv parks but this was by far the best experience ever! First off Mrs. Anita was so responsive to messages and communication was so clear. We arrived on a Sat and were met by the camp hosts husband Mr. Lynn. He helped get us in and situated and gave us firewood. Each site had a firepit as well a a huge bonfire in the middle. He gave a a rundown of the property and told us he’d be back in the morning with maps and more for us as the sun was setting. The property was gorgeous with rolling hills and horses. We sat out the first night listening to the coyotes. The next morning we awoke to a 4WD UTV and a map of the property. Miles and miles of riding and hiking trails though beautiful forest! We had breakfast and coffee the struck out through the woods. The trails were well marked so no fear of getting lost and the map was detailed! There are two lakes, small lake and big lake(both big lol). The big lake had Jon boats and a paddle boat for use. We were having so much fun we immediately booked extra days! We spent the next two days, exploring the trails, fishing, birdwatching and even found an old tire swing. Mr. Lynn checked on us faithfully every morning! They are in the process of building an amazing bathhouse, laundry, rec room/bunkhouse. Check out was easy and unrushed. Do yourself a favor and book a week! It’s worth every penny and more! We will be back Soon! Great Memories!
