Heartstone tent site is a stunningly beautiful, romantic campsite for 2! There is a new, large tent pad if you have children! Islandsite is an equally beautiful tent site ideally for two, but the 10x12 platform can accommodate a 6-man tent, best for 2 adults and a couple of kids! The Diamondstone site is a unique, beautiful, one-of-a-kind tentsite, EXCEPT a beautiful, furnished, shelter cabin is provided for you instead of your tent!!! Leave your tent and set-up at home! There is also room for a tent and your children out front, right beside the creek! You won't want to leave, but if you do there are many recreational opportunities in the area such as hiking, biking, rafting, fishing, and more! Stays of 6 days or more get a big discount! Enjoy the fresh, cooler mountain air, and the beautiful, private settings! Heartstone is located on a modestly pitched, terraced slope where a divided mountain stream, the tumbling Squally Creek rejoins itself! The sunlight filters down through the forest canopy providing a warm, inviting glow!! There is a 9'-6" x 10' wooden tent platform, and if needed a new, larger tent pad! Islandsite is located at the top of the island where the tumbling Squally Creek divides! Access is provided by the 40' long fallen tree bridge! Islandsite is unique, private, and very romantic! Diamondstone, Heartstone, and Islandsite feature a picnic table, charcoal grille, and comfort facility all within a short walk from your private parking! Enjoy evenings at the new fire pit area with benches overlooking the fire pit and creek! Explore the island on the 400' island trail, or go downstream to a nice pool for dipping! Contact me for discounts when staying more than 6 nights! The gravel road is uneven, and 5" of clearance is recommended. Extra guests are an available option! The property is spacious and there is parking for a second vehicle nearby if needed!

Peaceful Camping
Island site was great. Clean, beautiful, and QUIET. Brian was great at communicating and the directions were spot on. There are few things in this world as nice as drifting off to sleep to the sounds of a creek outside your tent. Thanks for a great trip.

Overall good experience!
Brian was very kind and answered all questions. Camp site was very beautiful and perfect set up. However, it was not exactly “private” as the new cabin is RIGHT next to the campsite and their dogs and our dogs kept going over there, and the swimming hole was at their cabin so we felt we couldn’t use it. There was also someone to the other side of us so my dogs truly couldn’t be off the leash since they heard their dogs barking. And can physically see the other people and dogs at the cabin. I would rent the cabin as well if you are staying here!

Islandsite
Me, my wife and our dog absolutely loved Islandsite. It's very private and unique with plenty of neat things to explore. Brian was a wonderful host and his directions were on point. We will definitely be back.

Heartstone
Wow, what a beautiful place! The campsite was clean and well designed in a beautiful forest with mossy rocks and a lovely creek..There’s a large flat clearing if you have a larger tent and medium platform for a smaller tent (we used it for yoga!) we were pleasantly surprised at the fact there weren’t hardly any mosquitoes! The site was very spacious and multi leveled, you can tell the intentionality of the layout. There were some supplies at the site for the charcoal grill ( we didn’t use it though, we cooked at the fire pit) The site is down a long road but the host gives clear directions and you’ll get there just fine! The road does get narrow and a little bumpy if your not familiar with rural roads don’t worry, as long as your vehicle isn’t super low to the ground you’ll be okay! Don’t hesitate to take the time to visit this place :) we’d gladly return. On a side note, there is a new campsite right next to the heartstone site. It was unoccupied at the time but if people were at that site we wouldn’t have had the privacy we anticipated. There’s spaciousness but you could have neighbors :)

Anniversary on the Island
We had a fabulous time camping on the island! It was extremely clean and well laid out and spacious. The bathroom facilities were a definite plus. It is a very private and secluded spot, perfect for our anniversary. We spent the days hiking and exploring and playing in the water, though it was a bit chilli, and the nights cooking a relaxing by the fire pit with a cup of coffee. Brian's land is so clean and natural and the views are absolutely stunning. His thoughtful little touches are great, including a broom, rake and shovel just to make things a bit easier. We had never camped on a platform and really loved it. The natural bridge to the island is so so beautiful, I couldn't get enough pictures of it at different times of day to get the perfect light. Also, when he says an SUV or truck is a necessity, he is not kidding. We had fun on the mountain roads in our Honda Pilot. Our dog also had a great time, playing in the water and basking in the sun for long afternoon naps.
