Two Thumbs Up!
The location is a beautiful well maintained farm right off the main road just north of Johnston SC. Nice camping spots, nice pond, and super nice owner who took great care of me. Contacted the owner with several questions via the app. He responded quickly! The great communication was reassuring for a first time Hip Camper. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you! Reuben

This place was awesome! The pond is clean and so much fun to swim and fish in. There is a nice sandy area, too. The property is gorgeous and you are free to roam. We picked blackberries, accompanied by Blue, the sweetest dog you'll ever meet. Victor is a great host - the perfect mix of attentive and respectful of his guests privacy.

Serene Hidden Gem
As wee arrived, Victor greeted us warmly and showed us where the shower & bathrooms were before allowing us to choose anywhere we'd like to camp out at. This hidden gem is so peaceful and serene! The sunsets are magic. I would definitely come back!

You’ll feel safe here
I decided to camp with my friends for my birthday. It was important to be somewhere we felt safe & there was a clean bathroom. We got just that. Mr. Victor did call me a few days before we were due to arrived to be sure of our needs and to inform us that his friendly dogs might pop up on us at the campsite. I let him know that was just fine, that’s there home we are just visiting. This location was perfect for us. The property itself was beautiful & peaceful. Most importantly for my friends & I there was a clean bathroom on the property in a shed area for our use. We were able to blow up the the mattress at the shed and take it back to our campsite. Mr. Victor was a welcome face when we arrived. He took my uncle out to show the property so we could decide on a place to camp. He provided us with firewood for a small fee. His dogs did come visit & they are very well behaved. They only greeted us for a brief second & went on about there business. The next morning my uncle did fish in the pond & caught plenty of fish so bring your fishing rods you will not be disappointed. Mr. Victor checked on us the next morning as we were getting ready to depart. We will definitely use his place again in the near future. Thank you Mr. Victor!

Great fishing and view
Great fishing and view, Victor was great he checked on us periodically to ensure we had everything we needed, the road noise early in the morning was a little loud but we got use to it after the second day, Victor offered to rent us his side by side I thought that was a great gesture, we enjoyed our stay!

Can't wait to visit again!!!! :)
This place was absolutely amazing! Clean, beautiful, well stocked pond to fish in. I saw no snakes! Nice beautiful old trees to camp under for shade and the night sky was amazing- so many stars!! I had some the best company; the owners dog named Blue! She has so much character I want to come back just to visit her. The owner is very nice and helpful. This was my first Hip Camp experience and it just can't get any better than this!

Excellent for the right people
Leach Homestead has some wonderful scenery, privacy, was close to home, and was generally a wonderful time. Victor was very pleasant, and made us feel very welcome. We arrived early in the day coordinated with Victor.
Unfortunately, I do have some criticisms. When we first arrived, our car was quickly approached by a very defensive dog. The dog was called back quickly enough, however it was a bit jarring for my g/f and her dog.
We were shown our space, and left to our own. Victor gave brief instructions on bathrooms and where to wander, said he would be back with firewood later, and left it at that.
A few things:
-Definitely need a map and instructions on where things are, where to use the bathroom, and how to get water. Victor was nice, but not good about getting back to my calls/texts/ in-app messages.
-One of his dogs did unexpectedly come over to our campsite. We did let him know previously that we needed his dogs away from us, but it was allowed over to us regardless. Our dog as been attacked, so any interactions it has with other dogs needs to be very controlled, and we were not given that option.
-The nearby road is very very loud. It must be the acoustics of the bowl-like property, but when I was trying to sleep, every time a single car would drive down the road, it sounded like I was laying on a highway. We told Victor about this the next day, and he told us about another campsite he had further back in the woods.... never knew about it.
Overall, it was a good experience, but could use some fine tuning to smooth out the whole operation, and definitely needs a 20 foot burm between the property and road.

This place is top notch! Victor and his wife could not be more friendly and hospitable. They sit on 70 acres with woods and beautiful ponds filled with all the bass and catfish that anyone could ask for. If you are looking for an awesome camp spot this is the place! It’s beautiful, secluded and the friendliest southern hospitality one can get. These folks care about the time that their guests have on their property. Victor has a massive piece of property that is secluded and wants to share it with people. Do yourself a favor and stay at this piece of property for any camping trip you’re doing in the area! Tent and RV campers!

Great camping and fishing
This place is great for camping and fishing. You can choose to be beside the water, in the woods, or any where in between. Victor was really easy to work with, delivered fire wood to our site, and even mowed a path to the site we picked out. Blue, the silver lab, was beautiful and so sweet. The fishing is awesome. We couldn’t count the fish we caught.
