Gorgeous farm site
This site is amazing! I can’t believe I found it last minute. Host was very responsive and helpful and friendly. Site was her land on an old farm house land. Mowed grass. Beautiful wildflowers. Campfire ring and wood. Bonus it faces the west and I got some awesome photos. I tent camped with my dog last day of a long trip

Sharon was an excellent host - very accommodating and helpful. The property is beautiful. Free style camping, so we had to set up own fire pit, which was fine, and she did have fire wood available. We ended up purchasing some elsewhere to supplement, due to the wetness while we were there. Just make sure you bring lots of insect repellant!

Site 4 Shimmers camp
Quiet Sanctuary in the Country
Sharon was super courteous and went above and beyond in waiting up for us as we were delayed for several hours due to a tropical storm. Her site has plenty of space and she was very generous in sharing amenities, though you can just as easily rough it on the 5 acres of available land. The location was great, as we were only about half an hour away from Rochester and the Chimney Bluffs, so there's plenty to see and we looked forward to the quiet respite of our tents when we got back. If you're lucky to stay on a clear night, you'll also get an amazing view of the starry night sky.
