Unfortunately we picked a very rainy wet time to camp here but with that said we never had any worries about getting stuck anywhere we had to get to!!! Amanda’s son met us upon arrival and was very sweet to help guide us into our spot! While we never meet Amanda face to face she was very good about communication and answering any of our questions quickly! We were mainly only there to sleep as we were away visiting family during the day. This spot worked out perfect for our needs!!

We brought our little chihuahua mix with us as well and there was plenty of space for the three of us in the RV-we really enjoyed sitting outside in the evening, it was so relaxing!

The Pocket is s must-see-and-stay if you want peace, beauty, warmth and comfort. We stayed in the RV with 2 teens and everyone was very comfortable and had plenty of room. The land is truly beautiful. I loved just listening to the breeze and the birds. Fishing was fun. The town of Columbia is clean and has stuff to do. (We played minigolf!)

I loved camping on Josh's land! It is such a beautiful property that is well maintained. The shed is a great resource to have for storage or as an option for camping during bad weather. It was our first time camping with our baby daughter, and it was great to have a private campsite with a fire pit, toilet, pond, and great views. The fishing was excellent, and the swing by the pond was a fun feature. Would definitely camp here again!

The best spot we've stayed this year. 10 acres. 1 acre pond. Our dogs got to run unleashed. Listened to coyotes, owls, turkey and so many birds. So quiet and full of nature. Short distance to convience store and fuel,ice,etc. Just a few minutes into the city of Columbia. Absolutely taken care of piece of property. Perfect firepit for entertaining. We were testing our new RV for boondocking since there isn't electricity there. Everything went smoothly. Josh does have running water. That was very cool. Thanks Josh for a wonderful vacation.
