BEAUTIFUL
This place was SO GORGEOUS. The view was amazing and the host was very welcoming. We loved this place a lot.
Only downside...be aware that you may have to walk a LONG distance (about a quarter mile one way) with hills, to the campsite from where your car is parked. We weren't expecting this and had to carry a bunch of our stuff.
Otherwise, BEAUTIFUL beautiful place and would return.

Fantastic vacation!
I booked a long weekend at Hickman Hideaway with my kids, my parents and my brother and his kids, and we all had a wonderful time! David was quick to respond to all my questions and concerns before the trip and was very accommodating while we were there.
The kids loved playing in the shallow river at the campsite and spending time with David’s animals near his house.
The hike to the campsite is beautiful and scenic, but not recommended for those with issues getting around or for anyone bring a lot of items with no ATV.
David mentioned some updates he’ll be doing to the campsite, so I look forward to those as I think this will become a prime location for anyone wanting a getaway!

David was a wonderful host, his property is absolutely beautiful and was right off of the river! My husband and I loved how private it was!

Private spot on the lake
This site was great and so was our host. It was very private, except for a visit from a dog that swam up to us from the river, which was a mostly welcome surprise, the view of the river is excellent, the firepit was perfect for cooking up dinner, the firewood and water were easily accessible, and we could hear a lot of fish activity nearby as the sun was setting. The only downside was the drive in, which was not truly wide enough for a car, and we did incur a couple scratches on our new vehicle; we don't recommend taking a new car here.
The place is quite buggy but our host recommended we treat our clothes/tent/chairs with Permethrin which made for an almost bug-free experience. Thanks again for being an excellent host!
