A retro spin in the great outdoors!
My boyfriend and I booked our trip to stay in the ‘55 El Rey after I found the site on Hipcamp, and we were ecstatic to stay in a little piece of history. The entire experience, however, completely blew away our expectations. Juli and Jim were the kindest, most caring hosts we’ve ever met. The campsite features a private pond, kitchen area, a composting toilet, and community fire pit. Our neighbors Micha and Diane were excellent camp mates, and we had a great night getting to know them by the fire. They left a day early, and Juli and Jim let us stay in the ‘47 Airstream on our last night because they knew how much we loved the trailers. I’ve never encountered such a wonderful pair of hosts; their only goal was to make sure we enjoyed our trip without any hassle. I can’t say enough about how great our stay was. The trailers were spotless and the site is very private and easy to access. It’s close to many local attractions, like the Quechee Gorge, Buttermilk Falls, and Killington. Bonus: If you’re in the mood for great local food and beer it’s only a few minutes from Worthy Kitchen, hands down the best restaurant in the area. Juli and Jim absolutely made this one of the best vacations we have ever had, and if you like retro history with your camping experience you will love GMV! Thank you Juli and Jim!
