Tipi with rolling meadow views

Tipi Getaway

SUCH a great experience! First time staying in a Tipi and it was amazing. We felt so safe, there was so much room, there is even a little notch that lets you “lock” the tipi. It’s right next to the horses, so we got to say hello to them. There is also a hammock and beautiful swinging chair. It was a huge site and so beautiful. I would definitely come back! I will say the bathroom is a bit far so be prepared and bring a table+chairs!

First camp

Was a great first camping experience for my daughter. While the creek was really low this time she found something to practice her casting. Thank you.

We loved our stay! Worked out great as is local to where we store our camper/where we live! No crowded campground, able to have some peace and quiet, and our dogs love bed being able to be off leash at times! Definitely planning on staying here again!

Host was completely unresponsive, the road into the camping area was not specified so we ended up following the GPS marker in the app, this lead us down an almost impassable dirt road where we had to do a 3 point (more like 47 point) turn to avoid attempting to drive over an old wooden bridge that didnt look like it could support our vehicle to get out. If we did not have an offroad truck with 4 low, locking diffentials and traction boards with our tow vehicle we would have had to call a tow truck as we got stuck in the mud for a while. There is a good amount of paint work that needs to be fixed on my truck from the scratches from the over grown road. We ended up booking a campsite down the road and did not stay.

Wonderful place

This is my second time camping here while the weather played a little bit of havoc on me the one site further away was rather muddy and I wound up getting myself stuck had a friend of mine come and pull me out the hose was very understanding and allowed us to stay up on a more grassy area for the duration of the trip absolutely would go back again I'll just be a little more aware of the weather thank you again and I will be back

Tranquil night under the stars.

Very quiet, safe location. There was one other camper about a quarter mile away. You are in the trees with the creek nearby. Kids explored the area, horses were out (fenced in). Fire pit with plenty of twigs to pick up while walking.
