The ground is made of new slightly uneven gravel. Enjoy 26 acres of space and a less busy (blacktop tarr) road.

Blackthorn Retreat

The most unique feature of this property is that it was unaltered for the last 50 years. Purchased in 2015 by us  for use in outdoor skills instruction as Blackthorn-USA. In 2018 we developed Blackthorn Retreat as a private campground. Densely wooded and home to many animals this property is unlike any other place in the area.It was, and is, our intention to create campsites and usable space without the use of heavy equipment to maintain the natural setting and diverse wildlife habitat. While we are now altering the property, we are working with our land as opposed to forcing it to our will.Come see us. Adventure awaits!

The best camping near Tuttle Creek Lake guide

Average nights run about $50, but you’ll spot sites for as little as $8 if you book early. If you want campfires, pet-friendly policies, and a real toilet—no digging holes in the ground—this area has you sorted.
