Quite undisturbed forest for 1/2 a century, used for duck hunting in the previous owners family for decades. I’ve started building a small cabin that’s unfinished hopefully completing in the coming years. Fishing pond and small seasonal creek flows after lots of rain. Excited to share it with others!

Dockside Bluff
A very secluded place by a pond, and coyotes could be heard in the distance. 4wd is practically a must. I made it there with a fully loaded motorcycle, but if the dirt road was wet I never would have made it. It's uneven and not graded. If my GPS didn't guide me there I would never have found it. The dirt road entrance there could have been better marked. It seems as if you need to go right through someones yard to find the road. There are a lot of leaves on the ground, so whoever builds a fire there be very careful, and clear them 15 feet away. They're so dry, a forest fire could start very fast. Overall, the expert was very nice.

This was an awesome spot. Better than other Hipcamp spots. Really secluded. Great pond. Perfect for a night camping.

Fun night away from society
We had a lovely time! It was nice walking the trail around the pond. We were able to put our tent up in the cabin which was a fun new twist on things. And we really appreciated having firewood supplied for us to use. The bathroom was surprisingly nice! As well as the solar powered lights and having hand sanitizer set out near the food prepping area. Our dog really enjoyed the land and water!

Relaxing
The kids love going to Alex’s land to practice their fishing skills and to navigate the canoe. It is like renting a private lake for a few days where our family can bond in nature.
