## Overview

This is a very private location. In its former life this property was a limestone quarry. Evidence of it's history remain with high rock walls on both ends of the property. In the center of the property is about 5 acres that is flat and covered with wildflowers and small trees. There are several good options for camping in this area. Surrounding this area is another 15 acres of hills and trees. We have a scenic overlook open to all guests where you can relax and sit on a wooden swing while enjoying the beautiful view of the Mississippi River below. There is a boat ramp just a mile down the hill for boating or fishing on the Mississippi and the city of La Crosse, WI and La Crescent, MN are each only about a five minute drive. Great River Bluffs State Park and countless other recreational opportunities are just minutes away.

> What a gem! One of the best views you can find in the region. Would highly recommend to anyone and would love to be back. I don’t want to write this review because I don’t want others to know how great it is! Only potential constructive feedback is that we could see another campsite/vehicle from ours. We were camping with our one year old and we were a little nervous our neighbors might be loud. They were very quiet and respectful and never bothered us at all, we just felt a little bad when our little guy woke up at 6am and likely woke the neighbors. Still plenty of space overall!

> Loved our stay. Beautiful landscape and space to roam for our dog and young child. Sites were spaced out and the host was responsive when we couldn’t find the entrance right away. The port-a-potty was spotlessly clean and the site was very well kept.
