Tom’s land was a perfect place to spend the evening. It was secluded, quiet and had lots of firewood to burn! We would definitely stay again!

Toms place was perfect, just an empty space in a field, but that’s exactly what we wanted. Space to do our own thing. Felt private and secluded from surroundings. PLENTY of firewood to use. Would stay again!
