This campsite offers a private and secluded experience, perfect for those looking to escape into nature. Many campers appreciated the peacefulness, beautiful views, and the option to let dogs roam freely. While access to the lake can be challenging, the overall experience is enhanced by the attentive host and the serene setting. Some guests found it necessary to explore nearby areas for easier water access.

My brother and I started a new tradition with our daughters. My oldest is 3 and just beginning to really.enjoy the outdoors. Our stay on the back of the farm was a fantastic way to start. Campsites are remote and we felt like we were the only ones in the world while there. The host was awesome and communicative. The lake is a little difficult to access and dining our visit the water was very high which made fishing from bank unpractical. However the overall.experience was absolutely fantastic and many good memories were made.

Awesome

Aaron was awesome! I was silly and brought my mini cooper camping. When I inevitably got stuck in the mud during a winter rain shower, he came very quickly and got me out predicament. The site was beautiful overlooking the river. The site is well maintained and nice and flat for easy camp set up. It was a wonderful stay. Thank you Aaron!

Great Spot!

My husband, dog, and myself loved this site! We stayed at camp 1 behind the cornfield. It was private and gave us a beautiful view of the night sky. We even saw some deer in the cornfield in the morning! We could let our dog off leash and she loved exploring the site. We felt safe but secluded at the same time and would absolutely recommend this spot to others looking for a weekend getaway.
