James is very communicative and hospitable. He went above and beyond our expectations multiple times. He also provided the best farm fresh eggs I've ever had in my entire life. Thanks again, James!

Great memories! Beautiful field.
James’ land was a great spot to watch the eclipse-clear open skies! We had a blast as a family. James also drove by to provide us lunch. He was an awesome host. Thanks James for helping our family create memories.

Absolutely fantastic, the folks running things had everything pretty well organized. For the first time letting it be camped I think they put something amazing together. Hope we can stay here again.

Great place to camp
This was a great place to view the eclipse! Lots of tree line for camping. The grass was well manicured. There was a water truck and portopotty provided. He drove around on a golf cart delivering firewood right to our camp. He didn't have any problems with us digging a firepit. There were even Amish horse wagon rides for the kids. Very nice person. I would definitely recommend this place.

James was very kind, helpful, and attentive! His land is beautiful and the proximity to town was very convenient, and made for a fun afternoon outside the campground.

Wow James' HipCamp was fabulous! Really cool people too. We would be happy to stay here again. The property owner was super chill and cool. There were a lot of guests and 99% of them were amazing people, but one guy tried to give us a hard time about where we set up camp, telling us we were "right in the middle of the road" lol what road? It's all grass! And then he said he didn't work there so we were like... then why are you telling us to move our camp site? And then the land owner came by and hung out with us for a bit and didn't have any problems with where we put our camp up! Just a funny experience. You can't stop the party poopers from getting in LOL but seriously, everything James organized was phenomenal, and the property was gorgeous.
