The Pond was once part of the farm to the east where my father was born and raised. It's been in my family s long as I can remember and I'd like to share camping experiences here with others. Just a few miles away was the site of the Battle of Buffalo Creek which was between the Native Americans who lived here and settlers who were trying to settle this land. The rocks in the stream and along the fence row are an excellent source of fossils.

Overland Camping at The Pond
10/10
It was awesome, very well-maintained and multiple picnic tables and fire pits. It was a great experience There is even a little ice cream shop down the street which we went to and it was nice to have a bathroom at the facility that was clean

Great spots
Lovely spots in the middle of a wonderful valley with space for quite a few camp setups. Very quite at night. Great little pond. We just can't say enough nice things about this spot.

Peaceful Holiday getaway!
Jonathan's land is absolutely amazing. It was set up and cleared just like a campground, but with the solitude of an individual camp. We were able to set up in multiple areas to give the kids a playground area, and the field was perfect for me to set up for some astronomy. There was plenty of firewood, and the pond was a ton of fun to fish in (catch and release of course!). I could not think of a better way to spend our holiday weekend and I really look forward to the next trip! As a host, Jonathan was very responsive and not intrusive in the slightest. This is definitely one of our favorite sites to-date!

Restful and peaceful
This is an awesome place this is the second year in a row we have stayed here. Johnathan is a great host and the property is well maintained. He even stocked the pond so if you enjoy fishing this is the spot for you.

Great spot for three families to gather. We had a blast and Jonathan (and his dog Terry) were so welcoming.
