Forest Retreat & Camp
Pretty chill place, proximity to city def felt like the biggest selling point, which was pretty sweet. I didn't see any real camping sites other than the one with hookups for RV, so that's where we stayed! It was nicely partially shaded and flat with some convenient furniture provided. A cool old domicile in the woods was our favorite thing to check out while walking around. A little disappointed the creek wasn't easier to access. Seems like a lot of work is going on on the property, so likely will get nothing but better... but as is, I'd recommend for RV people, but not so much for tent/dispersed camping people. It 100% felt like paying someone $100 to sleep in their yard.

Overall I had a mediocre experience. The amenities list is a bit optimistic. Cell service was minimal and WiFi was practically nonexistent anywhere I wandered. The setting is woodsy but I didn’t see any orchards if that makes sense. Shower also not as I’d expected. I ended up washing my hair with ambient temperature water from a garden hose after attempts to figure out the bath and shower options failed. Watch out for ticks.

Forest Retreat & Camp
Awesome host with a great peaceful spot of land that is really close to the city life!! there were several options of places to camp and one or two of them included a water and electrical hook up. This is primitive camping, which we loved and we had lots of wildlife and privacy..

Forest Retreat & Camp
Very quiet, secluded spot. Has power, water as advertised. Close to the city. Don’t let the steep driveway intimidate you.. We have an 18’ trailer (21’ tongue to bumper) pulled by an 2500 series long bed truck and we were able to put it down there. I wouldn’t go any bigger. You will need to level it. You will need 4 wheel drive to pull it back out. We did drag a bit in the gravel so if your trailer is low you may have issue.
Rhiannon was a very responsive and friendly host. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a quiet secluded spot!

Rhiannon’s campsite was the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city, yet close by for easy access to get to downtown. The tranquility of the trees and birds was just what we needed. She was an excellent host very accommodating!

We showed up to what looked like a semi-demolished home with garbage, an old shipping container,old broken furniture, a pile of concrete rubble, and an RV permanently in the front yard. The concrete rubble blocked the only path down a super steep, narrow (8ft from tree to fence) drive which needed to be backed down to the only level spot in the property directly behind the house.
I was not about to drag our camper up a small hill backwards around the concrete, down the tiny root/grass covered drive to just be stuck or dented.
We instant booked a nearby farm stay at 10pm and hipcamp refunded us our money the next day.

Great location, picturesque! Currently the sites would be best for tents, but a confident 4-wheel drive vehicle with a raised trailer could pull into the lower 2 sites. I used a 25' Scamp trailer and backed down the driveway to park next to the house. The driveway down from the house has one rough area where a setup could bottom out. The tent site near the footbridge is totally enclosed by trees and brush. The fireflies were fun! Rhiannon is wonderful! Her dogs are friendly, and the chickens are great!.

I stayed with Rhiannon on my way cross country and loved her spot! It was so close to the city but yet so secluded, if your looking for a place to stay, you’ve found it
