Close and secluded

My daughter and I decided to camp at the last minute. This place was close to the interstate but still very secluded. Plenty of firewood and next to a creek. I highly recommend.

Great Campsite!

Nice Place! The campsite has a pretty creek and forest. On the campsite there is a lot of firewood to use, in a shed to keep it dry. There are log seats around a nice campfire with a picnic table. Lots of room for multiple tents. The shed also has lots of tools such as an axe and rake. Also two trees near the entrance perfect size for a hammock. Nice bathroom too. Overall, beautiful campsite for a weekend getaway or family vacation.

Road trip camping

We decided to camp last minute on a road trip back from Mississippi. David was very accommodating and flexible about check in and even started a fire for us before we got there! It was very helpful and greatly appreciated after the 11hr drive. The campsite was spacious for us to set up camp and keep the jeep nearby. He provided dry firewood in a shed to keep the fire going which was helpful after the hurricane rains had just been pouring down and soaked everything. There was also a nice little outhouse and creak nearby. Would definitely stay here again if we needed camping in the area.
