Highly recommended
Crappy weather off weekend was still fun. Able to get so much wood to burn (probably the favorite part about camping). Beautiful place. His kids were very respectful and all around good vibes. The trains were a bummer at first but when you turn it into a joke you get over it quickly. We are interested in coming back to do the activities.

Spacious private property and the sites are excellent! The host was kind, knowledgeable, timely, and caring. We experienced some bad weather overnight and Bryan came by to check on us in the morning to make sure we had everything we needed. We look forward to staying here next time we’re in the area!

I would highly recommend this beautiful site to any campers looking for a great weekend under the stars, camping and plenty of activities, such as kayaking, Paddle boarding, gem mining and a lot more. Also they had the cutest animals on site goats and turtle ! Definitely will be back if weather permits soon ! Bryan and Amanda thank you so much for letting us stay and helping us during our stay.

This was a great spot with a friendly welcome from Bryan. The kayaking was wonderful and it was peaceful. We liked the sounds of the train.
