Site 7 - Small-Medium Site

Relaxing and peaceful.

This was our first time using Hipcamp and our experience here definitely makes us want to continue using the app. A very relaxing and peaceful experience. Lots of beautiful bird life and a cow or two wandering past. Great location on the edge of the dam that is bursting with life, including a dam monster (just my dog as he loves swimming)! Thank you for welcoming us on your property for the past 5 days!
