Site was exactly as described. It is peaceful, quiet, secluded, easy river access. Great for trout fishing. Hannah is a very responsive, kind and gracious host. She set the bar as a great HipCamp host for my first time using the app. I will most certainly return.

We enjoyed the secluded area next to the river. We were greeted by some friendly cows throughout our time there which unfortunately brought some flies. Great lovely views with sounds of nature would definitely recommend.

I enjoyed camping by the river. I could here the running river all night. No houses in site. Passing cars could be heard, didn't bother me. The land was flat which is perfect for caming.

My boyfriend and I camped here for a night before we went climbing at pilot mountain! The camping spot is only about 20 minutes away from the mountain which made for a great morning! The sound of the river at night was very peaceful and the fire pit was a very nice touch! We were visited by cows throughout our visit. Cow number 22 was especially friendly and we became good friends! Plan on coming back to this camp site and would recommend it to a friend:)

If you are looking for a primitive location that has a mix of woods, river, and open land, this is a great option. The site is set up to have the campfire ring in a small offset to the river entrance with multiple good sites for your tent both in and out of shade. The cows came to visit us on Saturday morning but otherwise we never saw, heard, or smelled them. There was a decent amount of traffic at the public access across the river and some car noise from the road and bridge nearby but no car visibility. I would go back to this location just to be able to have the excellent river access for playing in.

LOVED this site. Tranquil is definitely an appropriate description. A few car noises but not enough to disturb the peace and relaxation. Perfect spot to end the day kayaking on the river.

I loved this place. It's quiet, clean, a flat area for tents, with enough shade to protect from the sun, right next to the river, not too far from the road, but far enough away to enjoy peace and privacy. There's a supermarket just minutes away in case you forget something or run out of food, as well as places to eat. The address is precise and clear. Hannah is an excellent host and responded quickly to my messages and calls. I recommend this place 100%. 😁

Peaceful flowing river, country view, flat grassy area - great spot for off road camping. Far enough away from the rd for privacy. Trees allowed sun and shade. There were a few small groups enjoying the river across from us each day and the road noise was sporadic. None were annoying. Most of the sounds were the flowing river and birds singing. Best part of the morning is watching the cows make their way to the pasture on the hill!

Overall, it was a good experience. The area is well kept. The ground was level, the grass was cut and the fire pit was clean. The river sound was amazing. The water was a little murky from all of the recent rain, so that’s something to keep in mind. The lightning bugs were fun to watch. The stars were nice and bright since there wasn’t any light pollution. The only cons for me (beyond the owner’s control) were the traffic sounds, and what sounded like a concert a mile or two down the road, which went from about 9 PM until about midnight. I’d stay here again though. It was a peaceful experience for the most part.
