We ended up extending our stay by another night because we werent ready to leave. The weather was perfect and it was just nice being outside all day. Definitely worth the trip.
The location worked out really well for us. We were able to explore during the day and come back to camp in the evening. The area is beautiful, especially around the river.
Great spot for anyone who just wants to camp and enjoy the outdoors. We spent the day exploring and came back to cook dinner at the site. No complaints here.
The river was gorgeous and there were some really nice spots to sit and enjoy it. We took our coffee down there every morning. Small things like that made the trip.
Had a really fun weekend here with the kids. They spent most of the day outside while we relaxed around the fire at night. Exactly what we needed.
Stopped here on my way from Maine to Ohio. I booked via Harvest Hosts and chose to boondock since they had a market (pay for food instead of a booking fee) and I was pleasantly surprised with the overall location. The entire farm is in great condition, the roads are marked well, there are several trails, plenty of wildlife, and just a generally pleasant experience. Loaded up on some goods at the market.
We stopped here on our way through and ended up wishing we had booked a longer stay. Really enjoyed the area and the campsite was comfortable.
Loved waking up to the sound of the water. Such a nice place to unplug for a few days.
