We had a great time. The view is beautiful and the property is fun to explore. We had a great time and the perfect location for a “socially distant” get away.

Awesome overlook! Easy to find. Great host!
Great spot with a great view. Enjoyable time.
It was great , finding the campsite was easy if you have good headlights , it was nice , clean , 10/10 one of the best campsite I have been to , the privacy and the view , there was some woods for us even though , we didn’t order the bundle of fire , electric box work perfectly, and everything was well spaced. With all the great there is one downside, the noise, since you are right by the road , the noise of passing vehicles could make sleep very hard , and waking up to loud vehicles is not ideal . That’s all everything else was 10/10
The view was spectacular which is what this site is all about. It is also just a 15min drive away from the Greeter Falls trailhead. We enjoyed a nice hike during the day and ate a cheeseboard while watching the sunset in the evening...Perfection...
I really enjoyed the beautiful views and well kept site. Brandon was a great communicator and gave good instructions. The only thing I will warn future campers is that the site is very close to a surprisingly busy road with a long hill and some of the truck going up and down the hill can be quite loud. Other than that is is an awesome site.
This site was wonderful, the view amazing, and the sunset incredible. We will definitely stay here again.


Thanks Dan. Great picture!
Great spot! Easy to find and very convenient location. We got there after dark but imagine is an amazing spot to catch the sunset.
