kiwi bower oasis
What a delight to camp under a bower of kiwi vines, serenaded by a northern mockingbird as the sun went down. My first HipCamp experience was a great one. The produce bag add-on was so very worth it!

Beautiful little spot amongst the orchard. So unique and fun! Easy to find, helpful host. We had the place to ourselves (despite the holiday weekend). So appreciate the firewood provided!!

Loved my stay with Ruthanne!
I had a great time staying on Ruthanne's farm. The kiwi orchards and the campsite were beautiful, the fruit basket was great. I went to Hidden Falls nearby and loved it. Lots of stores and food places were really close nearby. Ruthanne was so sweet and told me about her farm and let me meet her goats. The stars were beautiful, I had an amazing time! But bring a picnic table if you would like one. Thank you for everything Ruthanne!!! :)

A great stay in the Orchard
We had a lovely stay in the orchard!
Watching the sunset under the fig trees was amazing and we enjoyed the company of the dogs who came to check we were ok.
It’s a tiny quiet oasis and just the peace and quiet we needed. It was also
convenient for accessing the local trails and lake.
We ended up staying a second night and made use of the rocket stove: one of the best meals we’d ever had
It’s a basic aiye but don’t let that put you off: you have everything you need for a quiet stay.
Thanks Ruthanne!
