Tara and her daughter were very kind and responsive hosts and the site was well-located, adjacent to the beautiful lake. The main issue we had was with insects - there were so many bees (yellow jackets, I believe) - and they were everywhere, all the time. My son got stung...not fun. We were careful about cleaning up right away and putting away our food, but they did not give us a moment to relax at our site. The mosquitos were also problematic at night (my friend got eaten alive).
Tara explained that it's been a rough summer with insects as it wasn't a cold enough winter. This would have been good to know ahead of time as it was impossible to relax.

We absolutely loved camping at Whistlin' Pine Ranch! It was our very camping trip as a family of 4 & we had a blast. Huge thank you to Tara for hosting us. It was more than memorable and we will be coming back annually :)

Great lakeside location with easy access to the water, beautiful setting and welcoming host. We stayed at a particularly quiet weekend and it was lovely!

What an amazing property! Located just past the state park, Tara was an amazing campground host and greeted us upon arrival. All sites are close to the lake and there’s a dock with private access for campers. Loved the sounds from all the wildlife at night. Many birds visited our campsite and even some butterflies. We needed a weekend away from the city and this place was great! Will come stay here again.

I ended up getting upgraded to a different tent site that Tara recommended. It was great! Fairly private and closer to the lake. We had some mildly rowdy neighbors the first night. But they mellowed out the next few nights. I caught some nice trout from the shore and had a great time. Tara is a very kind and gracious host. Will definitely book another stay at the ranch.

Private ranch-like campground
A very private and beautiful campsite! Tara was very accommodating and helpful. Great at communication. We even had a campsite bear (friendly) to hang out with!
