Nice site but we were robbed
25 ft Class A · With kids · This review is tough to write because the host is very kind and not at fault. But I want other campers to be aware so it doesn’t happen to them.
Our party arrived with one campervan and one tent. The site is exposed to a nearby road but otherwise felt secluded and safe.
After our first night of camping, we left for the day to play at the Dunes. When we returned, almost all of our gear was gone, about $2500 in total stolen. Sleeping bags, pads, chairs, a table, duffel bags, jackets, headlamps, cookware, a propane fire pit, and a child’s bike.
We alerted the host that we were leaving to find a last-minute hotel, and he refunded the whole weekend. He was sympathetic and responsive.
In decades of camping I’ve never had anything taken. Definitely feels violating, and to be honest I will probably think twice before hipcamping again.
