Peaceful Private Camping

Enchanted Circle Campground is not like most campgrounds. One, there are only 7 spots with a rumored 8th spot coming in the future. Two, the spots are generally big and filled with amenities. Our spot had a pergola, many solar lights, two fire pits, two hammock, a charcoal grill, log benches, fire tongs, hand sanitizer, a first aid kit, cooking utensils, etc. Third, the spaces are relatively far apart so you feel like you are the only people in the vicinity. The property has an outdoor family games area, two private ponds that you can fish in, and the owners animals that sometimes roam the property. There is abundant wildlife that make the property their home. In fact, that is what you usually hear is the wildlife. We heard a family of owls while we enjoyed a nice campfire. Sometimes you can hear loud traffic on the road that goes by the property. It is a reminder that you are not that far away from civilization. You can venture off the property for some of the other local restaurants or attractions. I don't know why you would leave the peace and quiet though. Some of the spots are tent only as you can't get a small trailer in. If you are a tent camper and have some friends, I would recommend site #3. Just be careful about the nearby cliff. No small children recommended for that site. I was jealous that we couldn't get our tear drop to that site. We were at site #2 and it is pretty big and can fit multiple trailers. We had a medium size tear drop and one tent with plenty of more space available. The road to the sites is a dirt road and there is evidence that is well maintained. The only regret is that we didn't have more time. Will have to go back and it is easy to see why so many people love this place.
