Site 1 - Camp elderberry
Camping here was great, the views from the campsite and from walking the land were magical. The location is great for exploring the region and Lael kindly navigated me to the lake access by phone.

Site 2 - Camp elderberry
Our stay at Lael's farm was great. Everyone who works on the farm is very helpful and friendly. The site was easy to access, you can drive right up to set up with the farm itself very easy to find. It was quiet and private enough to sleep with the rain fly off on night. We also enjoyed some great herbs and veggies from the farm. It is very picturesque, nestled between endless fields of grapes.
The only real negative was that it was considerably more buggy than we planned. The end of August can be that way some places. However, I am more referring to the high amount of ticks we experienced. It's fair to say by fields of tall grass you may encounter several ticks. This exceeded any of ticks I've ever seen all at once. I had noticed a few while setting up camp and immediately went for the Deep Woods spray, which did keep them off of us. They did love congregating on the tent though. Which made us have to be extra cautious entering the tent each time to avoid bringing any in. The added stress of dealing with so many ticks at once was not exactly ideal. We decided it was fine to bear with one night, but did not end up returning for our second night - partly due to being tired and having another place to stay nearby. Luckily, a bunch of brush had been cleared the day we arrived so we had plentiful pine branches to burn to ward off most insects at night.
It's such a lovely spot that it was a real shame about the ticks. It's not anyone's fault, just beware of ticks.

Camp with a view
We loved camping at site 2. Very private with a beautiful view and setting. Easy to navigate the property thanks to clear instructions from Lael. We loved it!

The camping spot was just amazing with the view on the lake… the farm is very nice, we could taste super good tomatoes! I recommend 100%.
