    Vehicle site · Sleeps 2 · Vehicles under 26 ft
    The "Deck" site #8 has a large deck with a picnic table and plenty room for several chairs and your portable charcoal grill. It was initially designed for a pull in motor home with all utilities on the left side as you drive in. We did add water and electric to the right side for back in RV'S, however you need an extention sewer hose to use the original set up.

    This campground is a peaceful retreat with a friendly and helpful host, Peter, who receives high praise from visitors. It's a quiet, secluded spot with each site offering a good degree of privacy, which many campers appreciate. The added bonuses of free firewood and a community garden enhance the experience. While the views may be limited at times due to the dense trees, the overall setting is serene and ideal for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle.

    Peter was super sweet and accommodating. He is very professional and helpful. Our pups loved running around site #1. It was nice and secluded from the other sites and had a lot of space for them to play. If we ever come thru this area again we would happily stay here again.

    This was a nicely set-up small campground with a very kind host, Peter, who stays on-site. The location is within a neighborhood, but it is very quiet and feels private. There is a lovely garden on the property and little walking path that the dogs enjoyed. The sites are fairly close together, which we enjoyed because we went travelling with multiple family members. In the winter/early spring, you have a modest view of distant mountains through the leaf-less trees. When we had to leave our trip early due to unforeseen severe weather, Peter was generous enough to give a refund for those days, which was extremely nice of him! We look forward to coming back to this site in the future!

    We loved camping on Peter’s land. The sites are more private than most campgrounds and set up nicely. Because the trees were still (mostly) bare this time of the year, we could see the surrounding mountains quite well. There is a nice garden next to the campground and small walking path around it. Peter was very helpful and nice. We look forward to visiting again.

    Site 5 - The Horseshoe
    We just got back from a relaxing 5 night trip here. It’s a very rustic well kept full hook up small campground. Peter was super friendly and helpful. He let us know where the free firewood was, which was A short distance on a well mowed path to the (FREE) More wood shed Also pointed out where the garden was, which had several different kind of fruit trees including, plum, apple and pear. Also was grapes and blueberry bushes - garden also had delicious tomatoes, and other edibles along with a bunch of wildflowers everywhere. Needless to say I’d highly recommend if you want to relaxing camping trip this is the place although it’s also close to many attractions including very large zip line facility close by and a tube type ride you go down during both winter and summer, they have it set up pretty cool. Just asked Peter he’ll let you know where everything is including some great restaurants although we never left the campsite because we just enjoyed camping there but next trip we plan on going into some of the places he recommended when we were there we were the only ones camping which really was surprising. Again, I recommend you give it a try if you wanna rustic campground with well maintain Paved mountain roads. Had no issues with any type of bugs as in mosquitoes there was none.

    This was an excellent campground all around. For most of our stay, my wife and I were the only guests on the property. Even when there were other people there, the sites are spread far enough apart that we had plenty of privacy. The free firewood and community garden are an excellent touch. Peter was an excellent host and made sure that we had everything we needed. We will most definitely stay at this camp ground again.

    From the time we booked Peter was on top of the ball, reaching out to us and giving precise directions on getting there, helping us pick a site, and always being available yet gave us total privacy. One of the most helpful and kind campground hosts I have met, and we have stayed a lot of places across the country. This is a Beautiful little campground, very clean and well cared for yet a natural setting, offered free firewood, and had full hookups for our rig. Dogs loved it too. Very quiet, simply a great place to just relax, which we very much enjoyed doing. We will definitely be back.

    My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our time staying here. It’s much quieter and more private than typical campgrounds but still has full hookups for your camper/RV. The host is extremely friendly and ensures you’re cared for. The road up is an adventure but we had no issues with our mid-size truck and 20 ft camper.
