Nice view good solid spot
Jeff has created a beautiful spot, it is well laid out, level, and with a very nice and what appears to be well built, pedestal for power and water. The view is exactly as shown in his photos as long as you look that specific direction. There’s also a nice fire pit for when burn bans are not in effect. (I live in this region so I know that burn bans are extremely important and last much of our summer. It’s just the nature of the area.) Unfortunately, we arrived at a time of day when the tide was high. As far as we could tell that completely eliminated any opportunity to walk on the beach.
Jeff is very responsive and easy to reach through the app. Unfortunately, due to how hip camp apparently works on the property owners side, I had to correspond directly with Jeff to verify that I could use my gas barbecue given Jefferson county’s burn ban. I am well aware that the county does not prohibit the use of gas barbecues under that level of ban. Unfortunately, hip camp said they did. If I wasn’t from the area, I might not have known to check with Jeff directly. Fortunately, he fixed that in the listing.
This was my first hip camp experience and I think some of my disappointment may stem from hip camp policies. Up charges for arriving before 3 PM or leaving after 11 seemed over the top given the quoted prices.
