I would recommend this site. Julie’s welcoming and easy going nature and hospitality was a treat after a long drive. Basic but comfortable.

Eclectic Bush Haven Camp Ground 1

Overall Nice stay

really cute site, artsy and unique, felt very private however i feel it’s a tad over priced for what it is, and there’s signs everywhere repeating the same rules of having a 2 minute shower, however for $25 per person, per night, unpowered, you should be able to take a lil longer than that. Camp kitchen was the nicest i’ve seen but there was a rat running around so i wouldn’t leave any food in there. There is a few warnings but i’d definitely only book if you’re a very confident driver.
