I Hit the Hipcamp Jackpot!
I honestly feel like I hit the Hipcamp jackpot with this stay.
From the moment Tilly and I arrived, Christine was incredibly warm, welcoming, and generous. She helped me get all of my gear down to the campsite so I didn't have to haul everything in, surprised me with an upgrade to the beautiful lean-to site beside the creek, and made sure I knew I could reach her if I needed anything â especially with weather coming through.
The property itself is absolutely gorgeous. The creek running beside the site was wonderful, the woods were peaceful and full of things to explore, and I couldn't have asked for a better place to unplug for a couple of days. I spent my time wandering, foraging, sitting by the water, listening to the rain, and genuinely enjoying being nowhere else.
But Christine is what made the experience truly special. She went so far beyond what I ever would have expected from a Hipcamp host. She was thoughtful, kind, helpful, and genuinely interested in making sure Tilly and I had a wonderful stay. By the time I packed up to leave, I didn't feel like I'd simply rented a campsite â I felt like I'd made a new friend.
This was my first solo camping trip, and I couldn't have chosen a better place or a better host for it. I came home rested, happy, filthy in the best possible way, and already thinking about when I can go back.
If you're considering staying here, do it. Just maybe leave a few dates open for me, because Tilly and I will absolutely be back.
