Better luck to future campers.
Overall the view is great and the fact that you can use the cannoes for free and their sweet dog made it all special. At first impressions the host appear to be nice but changed after we left and received multiple mean and unacceptable messages. We gave them our critique and their response was silence and to change the wording and rules to their site because of us. Is a shame really. Best advice make sure you message the owner and you know what you're signing up for. The fire pit and food access is communal fyi. Privacy is minimal and cost is too high.(fyi they also lower the price; youre welcome). would not recommend. To the hosts thank you for sharing your land, sorry it didn't go right. Cheers.

What a delightful few days/nights just spent at HoneyBee Haven. This was the perfect getaway, a picturesque setting among the massive pines, the immaculate property, and the lake views just stunning. The tranquillity was just what we needed. We enjoyed several paddles around the pristine lake in the kayaks, just absorbing the joys of being in nature. The hosts, Mike and Sue are very welcoming and we so enjoyed our many conversations around the evening bonfire. The bonus for us was spending time with their beautiful dogs, Honey Bee and Bo. We came away feeling replenished and can’t wait to go back.

We loved camping on Mike's and Sue's camp site. The host are very welcoming. The view is absolutely spectacular, and very quiet. Thanks again.

A very special place
HoneyBee is by far one of my favorite camping experience in the region! The listing does not do it justice! The grounds are clean (and I mean CLEAN), the shared space is very cute, the waterfront is welcoming and the lake is gorgeous! Mike and his wife are kind, welcoming and attentive folks. Would recommend to anyone in a heartbeat!

We loved staying at Mike and Sue's campsite! It was an incredible, peaceful space among the pines on a beautiful lake. They put so much love and care into making our time with them fun and relaxing - from providing activities to do at the campsite like paddle boarding, giving some local knowledge on what to do on the one wet day we had, and even lighting us a fire every evening. In terms of facilities, we feel this place definitely delivers more than advertised, like a well equipped kitchen and a warm outdoor shower. Mike and Sue are lovely people too. We spent quality time getting to know them and their pups. They're kind and generous people who want to share their paradise with others. We enjoyed chatting about life with them. Hope to stop by again soon!
