ECLIPSE at the Riverside
We had an amazing exprience on Bryan and Amanda's land - ECLIPSE at the Riverside! We made our way to this beautiful area for viewing the eclipse in totality and we weren't dissappointed. Bryan had all the amenities for a good night camping plus a good few more. We enjoyed both the wilds and the family community thriving on this land. The waterfront was great for bird watching as we made camp with plenty of room all around. The land is adjacent to a train track which can be loud for light sleepers but is a fun marker of camping in the wilds. We felt cozy and well distanced at our tent site #1, which shared a field with site #2. We purchased wood which Bryan brought straight to our fire-ring. We appreciate the hospitality shown by Bryan, Amanda, and their family and getting the chance to share this once in a lifetime experience with them!

It’s a great place to camp if you want to avoid crowds at a state campground. We enjoyed it a lot.

The entire camp was an amazing place! The quiet, isolated, primitive camping was awesome for a Lake Erie tourist area! Can't wait to come back next year!
