The Happy Acre
Happy Acre is such a wonderful site to stay at, and I couldn’t recommend it enough! Carl welcomed us onto his property, showed us around, and was super social!! It was great to get to know him and chat, and it was also great that when it was time for bed he completely respected our space. His garage (where the accessible bathroom is) is clearly a space that has received so much love, life, and attention. For all my fellow campers out there: please consider staying here!!

I stayed with Carl and Stacy on my bicycle trip across the US. Upon arrival I was greeted by Carl. He was super accommodating and made sure I had everything I needed. I had a wonderful night rest at Happy acre. I highly recommend staying with Carl and Stacy.

Our little dog Zapata loved hanging out, with there friendly dogs, in a big fenced yard. We stayed for 2 days. Nice and quiet at night. We would definitely, stay there again if ever passing threw✌🏻😀👍
