Mowgli's Tree House

James and Sola have an amazing homestead that they've created. At the front is the farm with some of the sweetest animals of all time and a beautiful greenhouse. When you walk over the bridge to the back of the property and you find the coolest campsite. On our stay, we were led to the site by Sola and met by James who had started a fire for us. They both showed us the kitchen, the fishing poles, the kayaks, and gave us lots of tips on things we should check out during our stay. We stayed in Mowgli's treehouse for the first night, which we liked for the views and for the lizards that greeted us from the tree, and alpha's spot on the second, which we liked because it was a little bigger. Overall Sola, James, and their two pups have made an incredible oasis and anyone would be lucky to spend some time there!

Mowgli's Tree House

A well-equipped site on a pretty property. We paddled the river and got to hang out with the farm animals. The hosts are great and very welcoming.
