Brenna greeted us when we pulled in and got us all parked and situated. She gave us a tour of her backyard, which is a bit narrow (you can see all the neighbor's houses and hear things like people mowing, traffic, and general sounds of a suburb), and showed us the multiple places to pitch a tent. There's also a communal fire pit, a disc golf basket, and plenty of beautiful planted gardens to enjoy. Right across the street is a farm market, where we were able to stock up on awesome seasonal squash and pumpkins!
If you're a looking for a remote campsite in the woods, this isn't it. But this has great access, is easy to drive to, and is a great little camping getaway right in the comfortable suburbs.
