Beautiful views and seclusion
Beautiful views and seclusion; just what we were looking for. The host, Charlie was very hospitable and we enjoyed conversing with him. He also has friendly dogs and horses who stopped in to say hello 💕 Definitely would return if we are in the area again.

We loved the horses!
We loved staying on the horse ranch! We stayed almost a week. Charlie, the host was accomadating and friendly. There was so much space and it was quiet and beautiful. There was a beautiful little stream through the property. My kids loved interacting with Charlie's animals. Staying here definitely added a lot of fun to our vacation!

We loved staying at his place. We have a 24 ft rv and it was perfect. Amazing views and the horses and dog loved us (and we them). Thanks for a great place to stay and your hospitality.

Extremely beautiful, serene, spacious property with dispersed camping and unobstructed views of the sunrise and sunset. Description and photos are accurate. Charlie and his animals are pleasantly welcoming and hospitable. Location is perfect for Bear Lake day trips and Idaho exploration. We will be back.

Excellent Experience!
One of the best camping trips we have been on! Charlie is an amazing host. My son loved it so much he asked me if we could connect our home to our camp trailer and take it to Charlie's forever...The imagination of a 6 year old. Lol
The property is absolutely beautiful. 40+ acres surrounded by other properties so you dont need to worry about neighbors. There is a little river that flows through the property that's surrounded by cattails. Something the littles can splash in or you can take the opportunity to get some scenic photos.
If you dont have a love for animals this isn't the place for you. In the evening the horses get to roam. They would come up, check out the camp and let you pet them. Adi, one of the two pup's was a frequent at our spot. He would greet us when we returned and spend most of the evening playing with kids or laying out in the field guarding the family from the coyotes you can hear off in the distance (never saw one, can only hear them..dont freak out moms, your kids are safe).
Charlie was great with the kids. He has a rockwall set up and some large haybales for archery. One evening he even took the time to teach a handful of curious kids how to milk a goat and was patient enough to let them try. We invited charlie up to our spot a few nights for some drinks and dinner.. he's talented with the guitar and can sing too.
To get to North Beach Bear lake it was a 10 minute drive from Charlie's. Absolutely recommend this spot, it will be our forever camping spot for Bear Lake.
