Great spot to spend the night
Scott’s bus was just what I was looking for! I needed a bed for a few hours on a road trip, and this location was a good stoping point for the night. I wish I had more time to spend in the area. The hosts were very friendly and helpful- I arrived late and they had tiki torches going for me outside the bus. The bed was comfy, the amenities were as described. Way more fun than stopping at a hotel along the highway! To prospective guests who read the reviews with complaints- remember, this is an old bus, not a new hotel room. Don’t let Instagram mislead you into thinking that a 40 year old bus in the woods is a suite at the Marriott. This option is a step above camping, and the price reflects it. When you come with tictok fantasies and leave negative reviews, it hurts the hosts business. If you can’t conserve water or handle a bug, then go rent a hotel room. Hipcamp is a great resource, please don’t ruin it for the rest of us.

The info said there were showers available, there were not . It said 2 single beds , there is only 1 . We woke up the first morning and there was no water . Very poor communication with the host. They would not answer texts when we had questions. We had booked 2 nights , we left after the first one.

The bus is very cute & cozy, but there was black mold on the counter & an overwhelming aroma of moisture/mildew. It caused my partner to have a headache, and bothered our breathing to the point where we woke up in the middle of the night & slept in the car instead, which I could do for free.

We had a lovely stay in the bus. So nice to hang out in the woods beside a campfire and then sleep in an air conditioned space. Scott was responsive to texts and welcoming. We are already looking forward to our next trip!

Awesome Place!!
Great place!! I booked this place at 6:15 pm and arrived at 8 pm, so it was super convenient. As a 6’2 person I could comfortably move around without hitting my head on the ceiling. A/C worked great, and it was wonderful to have a real toilet for the first time in 4 months. Bed was super comfy, and they had everything set up for me when I arrived, including lit tiki torches, a fully set up fire ready to light, a nicely made bed, and some coffee, syrup, and pancake mix. The house is definitely pretty close by, but I wasn’t bothered during my entire stay and it felt very private. Only downside was that the sink smelled kinda funky, and I might recommend bringing your own ice if you’re a stickler for very cold water. Overall awesome place, would totally stay again!
